Burning fossil fuels emits local pollution affecting air quality. To help tackle this we have created a fuel oil that can cut soot emissions from oil-burning factories by up to 75%. And our coal gasification technology transforms coal into synthesis gas that burns as cleanly as natural gas to produce energy. www.shell.com |

The Siemens ST-5 solar panel I purchased off eBay. This is a thin-film panel based on CIS (Copper Indium Selenium) technology Siemens developed in the late 1990's vs the more common amorphous silicon type solar cells. Compared to the amorphous silicon thin film cells, these supposedly would take the heat better and had a higher conversion efficiency; up to 20% was measured in laboratory tests. The Siemens solar division was later bought out by Shell Oil corp in 2002 which continued to produce these until sometime in 2006 when they suddenly discontinued the line (unfortunately). This is the 5 watt version and the smallest one that was available from Siemens. The nominal current rating as listed on the back was 320millamps at 15.6 volts DC (Open circuit was around 20 volts) which was more than enough to charge a cell phone and a iPod. It would also run a radio directly but did not have the "muscle" to operate the CD player portion of the radio. I'm planning to get more of these soon and parallel them to charge the two deep cycle batteries that I have for "12 volt room" so I can finally go "off grid" |

Shell Eco-marathon s always attract a diverse mix of design and technology and the Shell Eco-marathon Asia is no exception. While the vast majority of vehicles are gasoline powered, there have been some notable exceptions such as Nanyang Technological University in Singapore who have brought a solar prototype vehicle. For them, the rainy season might be an extra challenge. Ng Heong Wah, Nanyang Technological University, "We tend to rely on the weather and from the forecast we know it will be stormy in the afternoon si we try to get a window of bright sunshine to go out and do our attempts. So that's the problem now." Team 28 from Pakistan NAVY ENGINEERING COLLEGE have another first for Shell Eco-marathon. Umair Tariq, Pakistan Navy Engineering College, "This car is on exhibition because it's totally wi-fi. A remote controlled car. And we have used wi fi for several motors so we control each and every thing. Our turning is through this, our throttle is through this, and our braking is through this -- so everything is through this joystick. Our driver is sitting inside and just hold this, turning, throttling and brakes, everything he's doing just with this." Meanwhile, Malaysia University have a prototype LPG vehicle with an eco-friendly shell. Vigren A/L V. Radha, Universiti Sains Malaysia, "Usually people use fiberglass, carbon fiber, aluminum, and we wanted to do something different using natural fiber -- a specific reason we wanted to use a natural fiber is that if you <b>...</b> |

VVH-TV News Chief Investigative Reporter Karl Grossman interviews individuals on both sides of the Broadwater LNG Project on Long Island Sound. Shell and TransCanada Energy, two of North America's largest energy companies, have proposed building a 10-story-high, four-football-field-long (about the size of the Queen Mary cruise liner) liquid natural gas storage facility in the middle of LIS. The proposed facility would be 75 to 100 feet tall. It would be four football fields long and larger than the QE2. It would be anchored 10.5 miles from Cosey Beach Park in East Haven, about 17 miles from the Long Island Sound Ferry, and 18 miles from Hammonasset Beach. But, as most people know, the Sound is one of the most beautiful and significant bodies of water in the United States. In 1987, after Congress allocated funds for the US Environmental Protection Agency to research, monitor, and assess the water quality of the Sound, it became an Estuary of National Significance. It contains thousands of species of wildlife, and is a vital part of our nation's environment. And, it provides employment and recreational opportunities for hundreds of thousands of people throughout our region. Over the past ten years, the federal government, and the states of Connecticut and New York, have spent hundreds of millions of dollars to restore and protect the water quality of this national treasure.
