Electric Solar Car
The Dream Car - Dreamcar123
With energy prices going through the roof, it’s time to consider what we can do about it. Dreamcar is a practical auto concept that is using existing technology adapted to it. With our Dreamcar we are putting 80 batteries into a single auto frame that will have a lot of energy storage. This auto frame is built for one reason. To prove that this more batteries can make this car go long range. and the frame is made to hold this amount of batteries. The frame wraps around all four wheels to protect them. This auto has a new power configuration that includes four independent electrical motors. Each motor will drive a single wheel. This motor design is made so that it fits into the hub of the wheels. The motors are fixed onto the frame and do not include a steering system. There will be no more rack and pinion no tie-rods, no power steering system, no pumps or belts. Instead, there will be a joystick for steering. This is much like a bobcat bulldozer. The faster the motors go on one side makes the car turn. This auto will be able to turn around on a spot. Making turning in tight places easy. You will see this Dreamcar in our shop here in ILLINOIS. the photo’s show the frame under construction. They also show the completed auto. The body is made of 1/2″ thick Luxon bullet-proof plexy type glass. This car has been built for maximum protection of the driver. This is the new NASCAR-type frame and cage that is now being used. The driver is in the center of the car to protect him from any side impact. there is also a nosecone made of thick steel bars and Luxon. The car has been called “Like a space-ship.” at night the body (white) is lit from the inside to make the car very visible for safety. A dreamcar can be seen going in any direction. We could go on explaining this auto for a long time so instead we are now building the DREAMCAR. Feel free to contact us at 630-466-7170 24/7 or e-mail us at chriszanis@aol.com We need donations to get this auto on the road any donations would be great.

By pioneering and exploiting a range of different renewable technologies, Portugal hopes to rejuvenate its lagging economy. It’s leading the world in adopting renewable energy.
While 70 hungry children play by the beach, Professor Ruivo cooks their lunch. But he’s not barbecuing the food. He’s testing out his latest solar power cooker. “I’m a fanatic of solar cooking”. From powering energy stations with rubbish to building the world’s largest solar farm and first commercial wavefarm, Portugal is blazing a trail in renewable technologies. As well as saving the environment, the hope is this technology will give it a competitive advantage. “By pushing renewable energies you create new economic advantage”, states Dr Barreto. Prof Peirra agrees. “The impact of this on the economy will be large”.

This is part of my 8th grade year-long project. I did my project on Solar and Wind energy. For the project we were required to have a visual on our presentation table. So i built a solar circuit with a 150 watt light bulb powering a small LED light, and a small computer fan.
I also built A Savonius wind turbine that generated about 1.5 volts. I plan on taking a video of my turbine in action, but i need to purchase a voltmeter first so i can prove that it actually makes electricity.
I had both my wind turbine and my solar setup on a table in my schools cafeteria. I used a small house fan to turn my turbine and a lab light to power my solar part. The solar part was different then it was in this video because i had it all mounted on a piece of plywood.
Gathering my supplies for my visuals and building them probably took only 1 month out of the 5 months i spent on the whole project. The other 4 months i spent gathering over 150 facts on the topic, vocab words, writing a journal on my progress, making a scrapbook of articles and pictures, and making a TriFold to put on my table.
The presentation was open to the public for 2 hours, and in that two hours i was swamped with people, asking questions, sharing stories, looking at my turbine and solar stuff…it was great. we were supposed to be able to leave our table and look around at my classmates projects, but i never got a chance to like everyone else.
But i had so much fun doing it and i learned ALOT! plus, i got an A!
