Introduction • Porto • Windmills • Hybrid Vehicles - Toyota • Human powered vehicle • Solar panels • Transportation • Nature • Escalators Ecology
Porto • North of portugal • 220.000 and 1.700.000 inhabitants • World heritage site • Porto wine • Douro Ecology
Porto • Windmills • Hybrid Vehicles - Toyota • Human powered vehicle • Solar panels • Transportation • Nature • Escalators Ecology
Windmills • Nationally • Enormous expansion • Second largest producer in the world • 3.535MW of electrical power via windmills • Nearly 15% of required energy in Portugal Ecology
Windmills • Alto Minho Wind Farm • Largest on-shore wind farm • 240MW • 530GWh • Avoids 370.000 tonnes of CO2 emissions Ecology
Windmills • Alto Minho Wind Farm • 120, 2MW turbines • Enercon storm control • Wind speeds up to 35m/s • Less power “loss”: 2-4% extra energy gain Ecology
Windmills • Locally • Few rooftop turbines • Only on industrial sites Ecology
Windmills • New ideas • MagLev wind turbine • Wind turbine city • COR building miami Ecology
Hybrid Vehicles - Toyota • Field trip • Toyota Caetano Portugal, A.S. • Import and distribution center • Bus and truck assembly line Ecology
Hybrid Vehicles - Toyota • Toyota Prius Ecology
Hybrid Vehicles - Toyota • Toyota Prius • 3rd generation • Hybrid engine • 98HP combustion engine • 80HP electrical engine • 50 miles to the gallon = 4,70l/100km Ecology
Hybrid Vehicles - Toyota • Toyota Prius • Full EV mode • Battery recharging during • Breaking • Constant speed • Uses 2 electrical engines/generators Ecology
Hybrid Vehicles - Toyota • How many did we see? NONE! Ecology
Porto • Windmills • Hybrid Vehicles - Toyota • Human powered vehicle • Solar panels • Transportation • Nature • Escalators Ecology
Human powered vehicle • Believe !! • Concept: • Traditional scooter • Electrical motor • Human strength pedals • More practical • Lighter materials • Trailer Given vehicle Ecology
Human powered vehicle • Our task !! • Analysing a car: • Weight • Components • Consuming cost • Examine these numbers • Developing • Reducing • Evolve • Make practical Ecology
Human powered vehicle • Examples: Human Electrical vehicle • Earlier: • Environmental friendly driven • Looked: complex , unpractical, unattractive • Existing: Ecology http://www.space.com ; www.inhabitat.comwww.gadgettastic.com ;
Solar panels HIGH WAYS • Popular way of producing electricity eco-friendly • Any noise • Not colossal (windmills) • Easy to install maintenance • Low amount of panels • Ideal for many applications • Not only domestic use • Panels along the roadUsed in different ways Ecology
Solar panels HIGH WAYS Powering lights placed in a turn Ecology
Solar panels HIGH WAYS powering serial of street lights powering information road signs Ecology
Solar panels HIGH WAYS Powering traffic lights Poweringspeed camera’s Powering phones along the highway Powering Parking meters Ecology
Solar panels PRIVATE Ecology
Solar panels • New technique • Instead of panels along the road/on roofs • Panels in the roads • Specifications • Panels of about 3.5 to 3.5 meters. • Carry the vehicle weight strength • Containing lines of LED lights safety • Numbers • 4 lanes of 1km electricity for 500 household • All U.S.A. 13.4 billion kWh or 91% of the world • Future plans • Recharge electric cars Ecology
Porto • Windmills • Hybrid vehicles Toyota • Human powered vehicle • Solar panels • Transportation • Nature • Escalators Ecology
Transportation • Metro • Bus • Bike • Airplane • Car • Train Ecology
Metro • 2002 – 2006 • Electricity Green? 39% fromrenewablesources • Regenerative braking: 30% • Ticketswith chip Ecology
Bus • Eco-friendlyfleet • Natural gas • Hydrogen & hybrid Ecology
Bicycle • “The bicycledoesn’texcist.” • Almostnobicyclepaths • Hillsides? • Stimulation? Ecology
Nature • Respectfulfor nature • Green spaces • Atroundabouts • Green city Ecology
Escalator • Start-Stop • Lessenergyconsuming • Moreecologicallyfriendly Ecology
