I think that will be a good thread to create please next time you are in his house, snap and conduct an interview with him for us,I mean the refrigerator,thanks!

BetaHealth2016:
A friend of mine uses a fridge which he converted from electricity to bio-gas with the use of plant waste in Asaba. Fridge blocks very well.

Sola powered Keke! It's not a big deal. We make it look like it's an innovation! Wen good universities even reject this kind of project topics! Sir it's nothing! Try magnetically induce motors or something ! That's worth my FP

obstead200:

and u believed him....
did he show u any generator that converts the energy? do u realise the biogas cannot be converted to electricity without a form of internal combustion engine to drive an alternator

obstead200:

who can prove that it is really solar powered? we shud stop falling for cheap scams in this country.
Look at the size of that keke. look at all the iron that was used to build it. Imagine the weight. Imagine the horsepower (at least 5hp) that will be required to move something with that weight. now compare it with the size of the solar panels mounted on the roof. do u think such panels can generate 5hp (about 6kw)?
dont forget that we are even yet to see a solar panel rated above 500watts

MadCow1:
Who can explain the science behind this to me?



Will the rider need to park the Keke at a strategic point for a while for the batteries to chrag seeing as Solar Panel Installers bevel the Panels at an angle and a tangent to the Sun to get Maximum Sunlight..

Nice idea though..

NameChecker:


My Oga,
I've been thinking as well . . .
Am not understanding

Chitumu:
made for north where sunshine is plenty

CSTR2:
The sensitivity and efficiency of the solar panel is the main criteria here not size. Size though used to be a main determinant has been rendered redundant due to highly sensitive and efficient semi-conductor technology.
Given the set of dignitaries clowning around there, i am sure they won't congregate there if it was a lie.

saintclem7:
Maybe he built a simple IC engine with cylinders (1, 4,6 or and strokes that moves upward and downward once the engine is on.

obstead200:

@the bolded, u really dont know the length which this APC govt will go to in order to sustain a propaganda.

talking about sensitivity, note that the wattage rating of solar panels is usually based on the highest level of sensitivity and efficiency in power generation which that panel possibly deliver.
most panels rated at 300watts will give u about 70% of that wattage most of the time.

salabscholar01:
Yes, we are making progress... We are beginning to think outside the box already. Instead of crying for rice, cry out loud for people to patronize your innovation(s)....The nation exists for the benefits of her citizens, not the citizens for the benefit of the nation...God bless us...



Madcow1, Feel free to innovate, experiment, and substitute...I had seen other solar panel tracking systems on antenna rotators. It looked like a neat solution to the problem of how to move solar panels as you find difficult to understand here.. there is a tracking platform for solar panels already. you don't need to park the keke at any strategic point to absorb sun light anymore.

lanre316:
I don't understand the innovation in this. Is it the solar panel that has already been invented or the keke napep invented years ago.

If I attach a solar panel to water-pumping machine, would you call that innovation.

Nigerians sha. If you want to see innovation go and see what secondary school students in Japan are doing.

UNIQUEISRAEL:
Wonderful!!!, this is the coolest news of the day,
Although, Considering the fact that things are not in-place with Nigeria currently.
but I'm 100% positive that God is making a way, which will soon be unveiled in the presence of all Nations of the World!!!
Beloved, Please #PrayForNigeria

CSTR2:
We currently don't know the wattage rating of those panels to make conclusive inferences.
It could be a specially designed ones for cars. Afterall we already have solar-powered cars, wind-mills, referigerators e.t.c. And all those requires enormous amount of energy.

Let me see if I understand you..

Solar Panel Tracking system would be a tracker that would automatically turn the Solar Panels in the direction of the sun abi? Is that correct?

Let me elaborate my initial question..

When I see Solar Panels being installed, they are not flat but inclined at an angle and at a coordinate (Angel, degree) to the Sun's Rise, Set and fall path.. They say its done so to harness the maximum energy from the Sun.

Now this Keke's solar panels are lying flat on the roof.
The Keke would be mobile so may most times be out of direct range of the Sun in such a way that the energy it would be getting from the Sun wouldn't be optimal.

My Question is how did the inventors compensate/account for this..

Thanks.
