Nova Technologies Pursuing Self-Charging Vehicle Technology
Date: Saturday, December 30, 2006 @ 14:25:56 UTC Topic: Devices
From PESN.com News: Institute claims to be developing a "self-recharging electric
vehicle, capable of converting ambient energy sources into usable electrical
power efficiently enough to power a 1,500 pound vehicle at highway speeds for
unlimited distances without the combustion of any kind of fuel or emission of
any exhaust."
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH, USA -- On Saturday, December 30, 2006, from 4:00 to 4:55
pm Mountain time, Sterling
D. Allan will conduct a live
interview of David G. Yurth, who is the Director of Science and Technology at
the Nova Institute of Technology, whose purpose is to champion the germination,
incubation and commercialization of sustainable leading edge technologies.
After nine years of reviewing several hundred technologies, the institute is
presently focusing on a small handful of technologies, several of which are
energy-related.
Self-Recharging Electric Vehicle
The interview Saturday will focus on the "self-recharging electric
vehicle" (SREV), that will be "capable of converting ambient energy
sources into usable electrical power efficiently enough to power a 1,500 pound
vehicle at highway speeds for unlimited distances without the combustion of any
kind of fuel or emission of any exhaust." (Ref.)
Conceived ten years ago, only more recently has substantial progress been made
now that many of the enabling technologies needed to support its design are
finally emerging in usable, sufficiently matured embodiments.
The following is an excerpt from a document
produced by Yurth describing the SREV technology.
