    March 6, 2009 Swedish supercar manufacturer Koenigsegg, in conjunction with NLV Solar, is showing its full scale four-seater NLV Quant at the 2009 Geneva Salon. Producing 512hp and maximum torque of 715Nm this enables the Quant to deliver 0–100 km/h in 5.2 seconds and hit a top speed of 275 kmh. The all-electric car is powered through a combination of Flow Accumulator Energy Storage (FAES) charged to full capacity in 20 minutes and solar energy supplied via a thin layer photovoltaic coating over the car, delivering a range of in excess of 500km.

    The NLV Quant

    New technology

    The thin layer solar technology and the FAES systems enable the design of a fully electrical vehicle, rather than relying on more commonplace hybrid solutions. This also simplifies the drive train layout and packaging, as only one propulsion system is needed.

    Koenigsegg says that the Quant will be able to cover long distances without a charge due to a combination of a low frontal surface area of around 2 m2, a drag coefficient of around CD 0.27 and the efficiency of the FAES system.

    Style

    The ingenious design provides and a unique blend of supercar looks and the space of a traditional luxury sedan says Koenigsegg. The car will carry four large adults in comfort and also feature a spacious boot at the rear.

    The gull-wing doors on The Quant allow for an easy and more ergonomic access to both the front and rear passenger seats than in conventional cars. The unique split side-lite feature allows passenger to open and close the front and rear side windows separately.

  • Shenzhen's solar-and-wind-powered skyscraper

    Tuesday, Mar 3, 2009 3:18AM / Standard Entry

    March 2, 2009 Traditional architecture has been swept away and replaced by skyscrapers in China’s bid to modernize its cities and house its huge population and thriving business interests. Shenzhen in southern China’s Guangdong province has grown from a fishing village in the 1970s to a vibrant economic and financial centre - one of China’s most successful special economic zones. Now its skyline will be graced with a 49-storey solar-and-wind-powered tower.

    Austrian architecture firm Coop Himmelb(l)au won the ‘Shenzhen 4 Tower in 1’ competition to design the new headquarters of the China Insurance Group. Their 200 meter building has a footprint area of 40 x 40 meters and is divided into clearly separated functions, with business offices at the top, meeting rooms, a conference center, recreation areas and gardens in the center, and public housing in the lower levels.

    The facade's design is driven by solar and wind powered energy generation. The second skin of the building will be lined with photovoltaic cells and will feature mechanisms to provide natural ventilation, reduce wind pressure, shade the interior from sun and display multimedia banners. The use of sun and wind as renewable energy sources will increase energy efficiency and reduce reliance on fossil fuel energy.

    Solar power has long been available for housing but is now increasingly being used in commercial design as we strive to reconcile growing demands for energy, dwindling natural resources and global warming.
