If we could develop affordable, thin-film solar cells with a power conversion efficiency of around 20 percent, and if they could be equipped to the roof, hood, back door, and other parts of a car, then our preliminary calculations indicate that approximately 70 percent of passenger cars could run off solar cell-generated electricity alone.
Wind power is best suited to those who live in rural, open locations because it requires an average wind speed of at least 14mph, so it may not be the best choice for those who live in heavily populated urban areas. To improve your energy output, consider combining wind energy with solar power. Your panels will generate electricity when there''s

Vehicle-integrated photovoltaics are the natural next step toward zero emissions. Solar mobility will provide energy on a gigawatt-scale this decade, which means millions of kilometres driven by solar power. That's a huge release for the grid and the charging infrastructure and of course for the environment.
Purely solar cars are only powered with solar energy. The motor is only powered by the energy stored. The energy consumption and the range distance of solar cars dependson several aspects: Depending on these features, a purely solar vehicle consumes up to 15 kWh to ride a distance of 100km.
Our experience ranges from the Audi A8 (SOP 1993) equipped with a 30 Watt solar sliding roof, the Fisker KARMA PHEV (SOP 2011) with a 120 Watt solar module roof up to the new KARMA (SOP in2016) with 200 Watt. For the car concepts presented by Audi and VW at the IAA 2015, we have designed and manufactured the solar car roof systems.
However, its ASCA thin-film products can be incorporated directly into the body of a car as well. In areas that receive a lot of sun, from California to Qatar, this could significantly benefit the electric vehicle market, especially if the cover was designed to help keep the car cool as as added bonus.
To foster solar energy generation in vehicles, the European Commission and the U.S. department of Transportation have launched CO-2 credits: car manufacturers are granted up to 7gr/100km for credit. This may make up to 5% of car emissions. A romantic idea or a visionary future already today? Purely solar cars are only powered with solar energy.
On an annual scale, the solar car roof modules generated enough power for up to 1000 km of additional range extension. Since the end of 2016, the new KARMA Revero has been released with a 200 Watt solar car roof module – again developed and manufactured by a2-solar.
