... September 12 2013, renown Italian novelist Ottavio Cappellani gave a talk on the end of the culture of oil. [28] Starting from The Prison Island, one of his novels published in 2011 by italy's largest publisher, wherein he described the "culture of oil" as a culture of war to the extreme, he explained why energy choices, today, are no longer a simple matter of economic, but rather of survival ( Figure 11). Italy's and Europe's economies and societies, he insisted, are now on the brink of the next crisis which, he added, gives us a theoretical advantage: rethinking the energy model just in ...

... electricity-carbohydrate-hydrogen cycle, Professor Zhang concluded, will not only supplement future primary energy utilization systems by facilitating electricity and hydrogen storage and enhancing secondary energy conversion efficiencies, but also address such sustainability challenges as transportation fuel production, CO2 utilization, and fresh water conservation. [39] Professor Wouter Maes from University of Hasselt offered an insight on organic PV technology presented from a materials chemist point of view, which suggests clearly the main challenges to render organic photovoltaics a competitive technology (Figure 19). Besides intelligent material design, dedicated material synthesis enhancing purity and yields of newly tailored molecular structures of longer lifetime, he explained, is key to any forthcoming practical application. ...

Roof mounted solar panels come in form of fixed panels, unable to adjust to sun’s position during day and throughout the year. As an effect, the efficiency of such solution is usually dependent on the roof slope and position of the building in relation to sun’s day arc during seasons. These problems can be bypassed in free standing solar installati...
