electricity was successfully transmitted via a<br />
microwave unit. Power reception was<br />
confirmed at a receiver located 500 metres<br />
away. LED lights on the receiver confirmed the<br />
transmission. This marks a new milestone in<br />
transmission distance and power load (enough<br />
to power a set of conventional kitchen<br />
appliances).<br />

IT - III Year<br />
Potentially, a solar battery in orbit (36,000km<br />
above earth) could generate power that would<br />
then be transmitted to earth via<br />
microwave/laser, without relying on cables.<br />
JAXA anticipates that this new technology<br />
could become a mainstay energy source that<br />
will simultaneously solve both environmental<br />
and energy issues on earth.<br />
The estimated lifecycle carbon dioxide emission<br />
for the operational SSPS indicates that it is<br />
almost the same as from nuclear power system<br />
and much less than fossil fuel power system,<br />
JAXA claims on its website. Countries such<br />
as India, China and Japan are investing heavily<br />
in these technologies right now.<br />

New Solar-Powered Smart<br />
Windows Can Help Save Energy<br />
Costs!!<br />
Solar- powered smart windows with the<br />
capability of being tuned glazing that can<br />
control the heat and light inside a home. It<br />
saves nearly 40% of building’s energy cost and<br />
making the space more comfortable.The system<br />
developed is featured in such a way that<br />
solar cells selectively absorb near-ultraviolet<br />
(UV) light, so the windows are completely<br />
self- powered, inexpensive and easy to<br />
apply to existing windows.<br />
The smart window controls the transmission of<br />
visible light and infrared heat into the building,<br />
while the new type of solar cell (which are<br />
constructed using organic semiconductors -<br />
contorted hexabenzocoronene (cHBC)<br />
derivatives and could absorb narrow range of<br />
wavelengths ) uses near-UV light to power the<br />
system.<br />
