Two new solar products from British companies could cut bills for those who cannot put panels on their roof.
The products use a new flexible thin solar film claimed to be more effective when partially shaded or in low light than traditional silicon panels.Eight years in the making, the barrel-shaped Solivus Arc, the first household product from the Kent-based start-up, can be set up to directly charge an electric car or help power a home.Aiming to supply an average of 1,000 kWh a year in the UK, Solivus will guarantee the £3,500 Arc for 20 years and plans to let buyers pay in instalments.
But unless buyers also invest in battery-management systems to store the solar electricity - typically during the brightest hours of the day - any unused will have to be, at best, sold back to the grid - at a fraction of the savings they would have made using the power themselves.Wrapped in an upgradeable lightweight film, multiple layers capture different parts of the light spectrum.
Solivus has just finished fitting 606 of them to the roofs of the north and west stands at Northampton Saints' rugby stadium.
I am an Afghan inventor, I have built a device that simultaneously purifies water, air purifies, produces oxygen, and generates electricity, which uses the force of attraction between water molecules and gravity, in the hope of a clean earth and a blue sky.

UK weather: Winter's last gasp brings warnings for parts of UKJust a week after temperatures approached 20C (68F), much of the country feels as if it has been thrown back into winter. On the day energy prices rise, we need to turn up the heating because it's freezing. And a large chunk of that rise is 'green' taxes, to pay for global warming. We pay because it's too hot. We pay because it's too cold. It's all a bit Goldilocks if you ask me. Yup, PRICE RISES right when the cold weather is coming back.....how fucking convenient...Scamming bastards
