MadCow1: I want to believe the roof is made up of solar panels. I also think that the effectiveness will depend on the capacity of the battery and it's strength. Solar power is usually suitable for low energy consumption products and sunlight needs to be abundant. |

obstead200:You have a point too. Solar powered cars for heavy commercial use is not out yet. Even if the technology is available, certainly Nigeria is not the first point of call. Unfortunately, those clowning ministers are not even knowledgable enough to ask the right questions. 1 Like |

CSTR2: Thanks for taking the time to indulge me.. Just some points.. I don't think placing flat panels would work. The Sun hits the earth always at an angle from the East or the West depending if its risings, setting or falling. Flat Solar Panels would mean this Keke would never at anytime be getting the full energy from the sun which then means the Batteries would never be fully charged at anytime or it would take longer than the average to get it all charged up.. Some other Nairalanders have brought on the aspect of weight of the materials used to build the Keke Plus the weight of the passengers/goods it would be carrying and the energy required to move the Keke.. More weight = More Power from the batteries, couple that with the inadequate harnessing of the Sun's energy = failure. This is just me thinking out loud. I think the Inventors need to explain to us all the challenges they considered during the design phase and the measures they took to overcome those challenges. |

Did I hear you say Manufactured, sorry that was wrong use coupled instead, The panels, tyres, the body, the engine am sure were imported so ?. Any way nice one but not really impressed cos its copy copy

MadCow1: I understand you perfectly well now. But the solar powering system of this tricycle consists: -solar array, which collects solar energy and convert it to electrical energy.(not necessary for the array to search for a sun light) -power trackers to achieve the proper voltage, to be stored in batteries. -batteries, to stir power -motor controller which adjusts the power, -an electric motor, which drives the tricylce It may be adjustable to collect light from the sun for some time, but not all of the time... Remember, the automation was done in such a way that it's completely renewable...... This means that, even when it cannot make use of sun's power because of cloudy or stormy days, we always rely on the sun showing up the next very day as a constant and consistence power source. |

Chitumu:Nah! i don't think so, the sun is plentiful in Africa with about 325days of bright sun light a year than any part of the Globe, but we use less of the solar than Europe and America that have less exposure to the sun. Even if the Northern Nigeria is brighter than the south, we are still better under the sun than the western world. |

handysuzy:Yes it is unique. People are conditioned to rely on petroleum products for everything, where as we are blessed with free and renewable energy. A lot of respect for the creator of this. With empowerment, more vehicles will rely less on gas, implying some companies will not make as much as they expected, and that's why we've been stuck with thinking oil can't be replaced with cheaper options. |

lanre316:it is called innovation bro... Facebook was an innovation not an invention meaning there has been other social medias before Facebook and it is called thinking outside the box. When I 1st saw the topic what came to my mind was the solar panel will serve as an alternative power source for the keke hereby reducing it cost of fuel probably by 50% during raining season and 70%(probably) during dry season. Now imagine the cost of transportation reducing probably by 50% or 40% during dry season isn't that something that everyone will enjoy. That's how positive i see this innovation. |

lanre316: It's good to be technologically inclined if not you wouldn't be saying something like this. Do u think u can just fix a solar panel to any keke and it will start working? The mechanism for this is totally different from petrol powered keke. Do small research brother. 1 Like |

harmbhrosz:Believe me, When it comes to solar sourced energy this is one area our Goverment is not happy abt, they prefer a situation where by people will pay into their pocket to get their energy needs. If not so, they should have attract solar panel manufacturers into the country by now with our epileptic electricity supply. They know, should Nigerians get to mount Panels on their roofs, that will shrink what they get from all those power companies own by fellow politicians and their friends. Our politicians should take a que from the Kenyan Government policies on the use of solar energy to electrify rural areas. 2 Likes |
