  It is well known that solar power is drawn by photovoltaic systems, solar panels and thin film solar arrangements made from silicon and other materials. Solar power installations in which one or more of these solar power collection unit devices are coupled together are called “arrays” and are a method of producing clean energy used throughout the world. Solar power generation can also be brought about by thin film solar applications, paneled silicon crystal applications, as well as by passive solar design concepts and many other sources, as described above. The cost of solar power collection systems has declined in recent years, while the efficiency of such systems has continued to improve. It is also well known that wind power turbines can generate power that can be delivered to existing grid systems through interconnects or can be used to power individual homes, businesses and utilities. Most, but not all, wind power systems used to collect large quantities within the megawatt power range are large structure wind turbines, many of which are at least 100 feet high. Traditionally, small wind power turbines were also installed higher, usually at least 15 feet above the ground. Most small wind power turbine systems are also used to supply power to a single home, business, or element of that home or business.

  Currently, solar power creates less than 10% of the US energy market share. The isolated use of solar power is effective, but incremental installation there does not create a convenient solar infrastructure. For wind power systems, large wind turbine installations with dimensions of more than 100 feet are scattered in the planetary landscape. These turbines are often located on fields far to the sea or on private land away from public infrastructure. Small wind installations of turbines and other collection devices ranging from 5 to 30 feet are typically utilized in three configurations. The first arrangement features a group of small to medium sized turbines installed in distant high wind areas such as the desert environment near Palm Desert in California. The second arrangement is small, such as those in distant cold or extreme climates where there is no heating and cooling infrastructure, or reinforced at the microuse level for a single home or business by a small wind turbine implementation Featuring isolated power supply for homes and businesses. The third deployment model features real-life isolated power supplies for government utilities, such as a single-light stand isolated power supply at the Hanauma Bay National Park public parking lot in Oahu Hawaii. At present, there is no known model for collecting wind power that may be regenerated from a moving car. Projects for carbon and heat regeneration from water pipes and the like are commercially ongoing.

  Conventional models allow solar power to be used to provide power to individual homes and businesses through installations in those homes and businesses. Solar power plants are becoming more popular and new isolated power plants are being developed in regions like Korea, where GE is supplying panels for a new 3 megawatt facility project in Yong Gwang ing. Isolated solar panels are also used on roads to power signs, lights, and emergency telephones and telephone booths. Traditional models for cars allow cars equipped with solar panels to be used to exclusively power those same cars. Traditional wind models deal with power plants and isolated use models for the generation and distribution of wind power. Large turbines generate megawatt capacity of power that is used locally or interconnected back to the grid system. Small wind power generation systems typically have the ability to be interconnected to a grid system for the purpose of selling the power generated by the wind power collection system to public or private utilities, as well as street lights or homes or businesses. Used to solve local power problems such as power requirements. Small solar and small wind power arrangements may now be available to cars on a case-by-case basis by purchasing and installing available equipment that can be installed in each isolated car by the car owner.

  Unfortunately, the lack of close solar and wind collection and distribution means has limited solar and wind power to single-digit market share of overall energy use in the United States. The idea of powering individual homes and businesses is very effective, but constitutes an incremental advance in the distribution and use of solar power. The same is true for personally established solar power plants, many of which are far away from easy access to the grid or direct power access to homes or businesses, far away, sunny, desert It must be built in a place similar to Solar cars are the single priority and focus on running the car with only the solar power they are collecting or through the use of a hybrid power system that combines other energy sources to power the car. Have been combined. Existing conventional applications that are powered by wind power have certain limitations in distribution and placement. The large turbines faced environmental concerns and the Department of Defense concerns. Environmentalists believe that turbine noise and dimensions will disrupt both landscape and habitat conditions, in addition to threatening the comfort of birds that may be trapped within large turbine blades. worry. The Defense Department's concern has been raised about the large turbine impeding radar signals and tracking. Large turbine systems that are located far away from existing infrastructure also incur significant expenditures in transportation or infrastructure construction to carry the power generated by the turbine system. Eventually, a large turbine system will not generate enough power if the wind is not present or the airflow changes, so the turbine will then be considered a low-benefit investment, Represents a large investment, a moving investment in turbines. Also, if the turbine breaks for some reason, it will also produce zero power because it is a large single entity. Large turbines also require labor intensive maintenance and monitoring. The life cycle of large wind turbines is 20 years, and waste generated by decommissioning and manufacturing, installation, and decommissioning is another environmental issue to address. Small wind power used in isolated areas and for homes, businesses and individuals is a great way to introduce clean energy at the grassroots level per unit. The problem with isolated use handled by the present invention is that isolated use is isolated by definition. Isolated use, across multiple stretches of land covering tens, hundreds, thousands or hundreds of thousands of miles, providing easy access to real power supplies as well as multiple grid interconnection points Do not perform the ability to supply power directly to the business or place of residence. The current model also allows each individual car owner to invest individually in wind power or solar power collection devices in order to be able to install such devices and generate power from such devices. It is also necessary to do. This is a major obstacle to being able to create a large fleet of vehicles that collect energy from small wind and solar collection mechanisms or devices. Another obstacle is to use the collected energy, receive credit for the collected energy, and economically benefit from such power drawn by the wind and / or solar collection system. The power generated is that it requires a second device or hardware system.

  A description of example embodiments of the invention follows.

  One embodiment of the present invention is completely independent for attaching solar and wind power collection devices to vehicles for use with existing highway systems such as FastLane or to create an extensive portable solar energy collection network for vehicles. Key, combined with the collection and distribution of power provided by vehicle installation of wind and solar energy collection devices that are installed permanently or temporarily, free or paid, with or without deposit, Provide wind turbine and solar power array lines that run along roads and highways and along their median. Installed solar array designed for vehicles with the purpose of collecting solar power, allowing vehicle owners to easily utilize solar network energy collection and distribution systems to be equipped and compensated Adding cars to the “car array” on or adjacent to major roads and highways, potentially creating hundreds of thousands of miles of solar power collection network infrastructure augmented by millions of cars The majority of both sets of solar arrays, cars and lines, can power through the grid and individual homes, public infrastructure and businesses because they can participate through the power collected by their car system Convenient to supply. The present invention also entails the possibility of converting solar power into a double-digit overall energy market share in the United States. Furthermore, there is a need for an integrated small wind power infrastructure that is easily connected to multiple direct sources or various grid interconnection points. The use of public and private highways through the installation of small wind-generating devices on the median strip and outside the shoulders offers many advantages. First, private highways and local governments also have existing relationships with contract infrastructure providers who can train existing maintenance personnel and wind power generation systems along specific parts of the road. Have. Second, the wind power generation system can be small and noise-free and small enough to fit in the median strip between the sides of the highway separated by the existing median strip. Third, the use of highways or other roads allows for the installation of many wind-generating devices per mile, which can also exceed 500 wind-generating devices per mile. Fourth, the energy generated by the device can be used to power households or highways using hydrogen conversion at individual gas stations or at hydrogen conversion plants conveniently located adjacent to highways or roads. It may be distributed directly to homes or businesses along the highway path, such as clean power for hydrogen electrolysis for along gas stations. Fifth, other clean energy sources, such as solar, geothermal and other heat conversion technologies, are in place through the potential of connecting several miles of wind power collection, storage and transfer of generated power Together or in cooperation, it may be used to create a multi-source clean energy “power grid”. Sixth, these infrastructures will benefit wind power generator companies, and road owners will be able to generate a stable service provider economy for clean energy production as well as the environment through rental or easement revenues. Provide consistent infrastructure projects. Seventh, roads are a consistent source of wind, and by bringing a small wind energy capture generation device closer to the ground, a wind energy capture device such as a small noiseless swirl or a spiral turbine passes through that device. It will be able to capture the wind energy generated by the car as well as the existing flow. Eighth, the power generated by this system may also be connected to the grid system at many different and convenient points located very close to the existing grid infrastructure. This anchoring system collects in the car system and solar system that allows portable, semi-permanent or permanent small wind turbines to be affixed to the car at or near the main road and highway entrance points Can be used cooperatively and free of charge to deploy installed power, maintenance, billing and depository. Car owners may pay little to install a wind turbine device or devices in their car. Deposits from car owners that secure safe revenue of wind turbine energy generation system devices may be secured through participating car owners' financial institutions or through cash deposits. All participating car owners, turbine installers, road owners or local governments managing roads, and owners of installed turbines are all energy generated by individual vehicles, their electricity is specified, and easy access After being disposed at the vehicle wind system network electricity collection station or substation, it may be generated, stored, transferred to the grid or received a share of revenue from energy via direct distribution by the system. This model creates a situation where car drivers do not have to spend significant time or resources to begin generating wind energy in their cars. This model creates an easy-to-use form for the widespread distribution of wind energy generation devices for installation on thousands of miles of roads and millions of installations to be deployed in vehicles. Since both wind and solar power systems collect energy under different conditions, the creation of a free clean energy distribution network is achieved by combining solar and wind power systems within this infrastructure and distribution plan. The By having two collection systems, if one method is not efficient at a particular time, then the other method has the condition that it is efficient to collect energy at that time. In addition, you may have. Thus, the placement of both wind and solar energy collection system sources along this large road infrastructure enhances the ability to provide a more constant and stable clean power infrastructure.

One embodiment of the present invention is a road system for energy generation and distribution comprising:
Multiple ground wind energy generation devices,
Including one or more roads and a road system electrical grid;
Here, substantially all of the terrestrial wind energy generation devices are each electrically connected to the road system electrical grid and placed on one part of the road or near one or more of the road, thereby allowing atmospheric In addition to generating energy from the wind, it enables energy generation from the wind created by the passing car.

  Typically, each substantially all of the above-ground wind energy generation device is on one part of the road or between one or more of the roads and between about 0 feet and about 100 feet, about 0 feet and about Can be placed within 80 feet or between about 0 feet and about 60 feet. More typically, they can be within a portion of the road or between about 0 and about 40 feet from one or more of the road. Preferably, they can be within a portion of the road or between about 0 feet and about 25 feet from one or more of the roads. More preferably, they can be within a portion of the road or between about 0 and about 10 feet from one or more of the road.

  The present invention relates to continuous or semi-continuous lines of interconnected solar panels or thin films combined with a network of wind turbines that can span thousands of miles along public or private roads. The arrangement of the energy collection system will be both a stationary stationary system and a mobile system attached to cars traveling on roads and highways. By running a solar power collection network on or adjacent to a highway or traffic road, the solar power collection network provides easy access to both public and private real-world grid interconnections and local power supplies. Would have. New advances in solar energy collection technology allow this type of power collection line system to be deployed in a more flexible, diverse and cost-effective manner for power generation, resulting in real life. This leads to the development of a solar energy distribution power network with the potential of several gigawatts that may be powered directly or through interconnection with existing grid power systems. This road solar "line array", located in the median, side or shoulder or lane divider, creates a system that generates DC current, which then passes through the inverter and AC current And switch to voltage. Power can also be placed and installed in a portable or permanent solar power collection device that is seamlessly attached to those cars, and can be stored in the trunk, inside the car, or associated battery that can be attached to the outside of the car It is also supplied to the system by a network of cars, including packs. A small, noise-free, small wind turbine that uses extended publicly available public and private roads through easement, rental or purchase designation rights, thousands of miles of interconnected wind Create continuous and semi-continuous networks of turbine power generation. Wind turbines may be mounted on highway or main road median strips, shoulders or slightly off. This arrangement may proceed with a set of free installations that use small to noisy small wind turbines to generate wind power by attaching their wind power generation devices to the vehicle. Each large group of cars traveling along available public and private roads may be fitted with wind power collection devices, and the energy drawn from these devices directly supplies the car elements Or may be used to obtain fuel, merchandise credits, or sold for currency. Rest facilities and service stations, along with all retail stores, can make these car wind power generation systems available for easy purchase and installation for car owners. Power stores, installation areas and billing systems where energy is deposited from fixed and vehicle arrangements can be combined to serve both fixed and vehicle arrangement installations to increase efficiency and save infrastructure costs .

  The power generated by the solar and wind energy collection system can be used both to connect to the grid or to supply power to the home, enterprise or system without connecting to an existing grid system. The power generated and stored in the portable battery system can be transferred to a network power system at a power reservoir that can be designed and installed with the same or different interconnection and direct distribution as the line array panel output. The power is recorded by a watt-hour meter and either consumed immediately by the home or business load, or sent to a typical utility grid network. A utility meter rotates in reverse, or two meters are used to record incoming and outgoing power. The inverter automatically stops when utility power is poorly safe and reconnects automatically when utility power is restored. Solar power arrays and fixed wind turbines can be placed on the main road median strip, on the shoulders or in the immediate vicinity of the road, with a possible footprint of hundreds of thousands of miles of available roads to the grid It offers many conveniences such as easy access, easy maintenance access and the opportunity to power households and businesses directly.

  The present invention, according to one embodiment, is the largest continuous and semi-continuous solar power ever built with solar power generation devices networked together along public and private roads. It relates to the creation of large-scale solar power generation infrastructure systems that create generation and distribution systems. This particular embodiment is attached to and placed in the median strip, shoulder and lane divider, through a battery pack system or then a type of inverter for grid interconnection or another type for direct distribution to power users Imagine an almost continuous solar panel and / or thin film and “solar paint”, connected to or networked together with inverters. Using an inverter allows solar power generation to regulate the solar power to connect to the grid system or to locally distributed power users, depending on the specific type of inverter. Apply to. It may also be that a continuous solar “strip arrangement” is connected to a single power source change unit or simply coupled together in a parallel line connection before being connected to the inverter. Whatever network inverter is used, an electrical meter may need to be installed between the power generated by the grid or system to the customer and the inverter. Unlike most solar collection arrangements, the implementation of arrangements in this system is near the ground and some are mounted on the ground, lane separators or guardrails to meet the environmental constraints of highways and road arrangements. And will be only 10-15 feet high to allow easy access for maintenance personnel. These solar “strip arrangements” may be connected together in parallel with a battery-assisted or standby power system if the grid system fails. Parallel “strip arrangement” system power placement and distribution points will be based on local usage location and access to grid points. The “strip arrangement” system is networked together through the battery system or to deliver electricity to the next nearest strip array parallel line or battery storage facility or to local power distribution users as needed. It may be automated including a switch to feed the grid from a local strip array wired in parallel. The effect of this hundreds of thousands of miles of implementation is to form a sub-grid of the sun and possibly other clean power energy sources, where each distribution or interconnection point is a precise electricity usage for billing purposes. It may be measured with a standard wattmeter at or near the entry point of electricity to the grid or direct distribution customer system to measure the quantity. In a preferred embodiment, the solar strip array is on the ground surface to the highway system in the median strip, or on top of the median barrier, or on top of other clean power collection devices in the median strip such as wind turbines. Be placed. The photovoltaic coating system will collect energy from the painted lane separator and the solar membrane will be attached to the guardrail. These mixing systems will also be used as most effective for installation at or near the shoulder and at or near the toll booth. The strip arrangement is networked together to properly regulate electricity for use in a grid system or through direct distribution, then connected by running power lines in parallel or by battery storage and then through an inverter Will be done. The power lines may be connected directly to the source, or they may be buried or wired to the appropriate distribution point based on the physical characteristics of the specific implementation and private, regional, state and federal regulations and specifications May be. The car solar energy collection system is designed to run in conjunction with the “line array” system and be free in that regard. The possible arrangement of millions of vehicles allows its owner to create a vehicle solar energy collection network system that creates one of the largest semi-continuous solar power generation network installation and distribution systems ever built Chose to participate in and be compensated by it. This particular embodiment is for hundreds of solar paneled, thin-film and “solar-painted” installed and arranged to install these solar energy collection devices for car owners at almost no charge. Imagine 10,000 cars. The cost of acquiring the equipment is borne by the network owners, who are economical to participate in the network including vehicle installation realities for the network system, road or highway municipal owners and power distribution and billing depots. Or it can work in cooperation with various parties with strategic spontaneity or be the same party. The installation system, billing system and payment system described herein for solar and wind energy can be combined into a single integrated network. A specific embodiment for incorporating a wind energy collection infrastructure system is that in the past, almost noise-free small wind power generation devices have been built together, networked together along public and private roads. It relates to the creation of large-scale wind power generation infrastructure systems that create the largest continuous and semi-continuous wind power generation and distribution systems. This particular embodiment is attached to the median strip and connected to or together with one type of inverter for battery interconnection or to one type of inverter for grid interconnection or for direct distribution to power users. Imagine 500 wind turbines per mile that are networked together. Using an inverter wind power generation power adjustment to allow connection of wind generated power to grid systems or to locally distributed power users, depending on the specific type of inverter Apply to. There may also be cases where multiple turbines are connected to a single power source change unit before being connected to the inverter. Whatever network inverter is used, an electrical meter may need to be installed between the power generated by the grid or system to the customer and the inverter. Unlike most wind-collecting turbines, the turbines in this system are mounted near the ground, so as to capture the wind generated by passing passenger cars and to allow easy access for maintenance personnel, It will be only 10 feet high. Wind turbine pods will be connected together with a battery-assisted or standby power system should the grid system fail. The pod system will be based on local usage location and access to grid points. The pod system may be automated including a switch to feed the grid at the local pod and pass electricity to the next nearest pod or to local power distribution users as needed. The effect of this hundreds of thousands of miles of implementation is to form a sub-grid of wind and possibly other clean power energy sources, each distribution or interconnection point providing accurate electricity usage for billing purposes. It may be measured with a standard wattmeter at or near the entry point of electricity to the grid or direct distribution customer system to measure. In a preferred embodiment, a small helix or double helix design wind turbine is placed on the median or road shoulder to take advantage of the wind generated by the car as it passes. This type of wind is known as “dusty” or non-uniform wind in the wind turbine business, but spiral or double spiral wind turbines are often used for traffic flow in the opposite direction of the wind. It is suitable to take advantage of this condition to generate power even when in the cross direction. This condition will speed up the helical turbine, while it may hinder the wind turbine turbine's ability to efficiently generate energy. This embodiment also provides a vehicle in which an almost noise-free small wind power generation device ensures device acquisition through a specific lane similar to FastLane designed for toll roads or local access points to busy roads. In cooperation with the free deployment of the creation of a large-scale wind power generation infrastructure system attached to The portable wind power turbine system pack consists of a small wind turbine and a battery charging system. The turbine may be measured to provide charge to an existing passenger car battery or electric vehicle battery, or it may be collected in a separate unit battery, which is full when the light displays the battery. Yes, at that time it can be used to deliver power to the system electricity store for credit for toll fees or for cash credit. Portable wind turbine devices may be installed in a car hood, top, side, rear bumper or chassis using magnets or stiffening systems that are so fast that it takes less than a minute to install. The battery pack may be stored next to the device or in the car trunk.

  The wind turbine may be a propeller, helix, double helix or triple helix wind turbine. In a wind turbine network distribution or maintenance center, individual car wind system batteries are drained of their collected power by connection to an inverter, and then the car owner or user can access their electronic account. Through credit, it is credited for the collected energy, which can be merged with an existing FastLane account or monitored and maintained separately. Transactions may also be handled based on cash or credit cards. The electricity processed by the inverter is then distributed back to the grid using one type of inverter or directly distributed by another type of inverter. Both dispensing methods are measured with a scale to achieve accurate billing. Billing revenue is then shared by the remaining stakeholders, ie, the company that owns the devices, roads and installations, and the power maintenance company. There may be more subcontractors that are compensated in this process. If one party controls more than one part of the system process, or if a road or public highway is not compensated, then fewer parties may be compensated.

  The two systems, wind energy and solar energy collection system, can share some or all power storage points, maintenance stations and billing systems. Certain energy distribution repositories are in the system to store, send and recondition energy for use within the grid system, or to supply power to the real distribution of power from the network. May be designed.

  Portable solar and wind energy collection devices for vehicle owners who do not have to pay to obtain distribution points, fixed solar and wind installations along the road system and wind energy collection devices on vehicles and on their vehicles The concept of using roads as an entirely new innovation to the field of clean energy, where the infrastructure for running solar and wind energy collection and distribution systems through both fixed installation and vehicle energy collection systems is Easily accessible through distribution points.

  FIG. 1 illustrates a portion of a road system implementation that includes a fixed wind turbine arrangement along a road. These 10 ft double helical wind turbine generators (Item 1) are linear equidistant distributions, where any continuous pair of wind turbine generators follows a continuous row at the edge of the shoulder (Item 3). About 15 feet apart (item 2) or within the median or partition of the road (item 5). Wind turbine generators are mounted several feet deep in the ground and are sometimes placed in the foundation or secured through magnets, metal structures and clasps and strings (item 4). Spiral wind turbine generators do not rely on unidirectional winds, which is good because the wind created from passing cars is not uniform in multiple directions or on the road median The point comes even in the crossing direction (item 6), especially because the double helix type helical wind turbine generator is suitable to work well in these conditions. Double helix wind turbine generators are also relatively noiseless in operation, which allows these turbines to be used very close to humans. These double helix wind turbine generators are used in an energy collection chain with one or more turbines supplying a single cell or array of cells suitable for power generation of individual turbines and groups of turbines. Are linked together. There may be many, for example, thousands of battery arrays along a single road implementation (item 7).

  For example, the power generated by a wind turbine generator is delivered to a utility grid system, distributed directly to the home or business, or by a larger battery arrangement, for later use, for example during peak energy demand Or use of wind energy to convert to hydrogen and then stored through a conversion of hydrogen back into energy using hydrogen fuel cells for car or grid power use, eg, one or more wind energy generation The ground energy storage system that stores the energy generated from the device, for example the electrical energy of a battery or battery array, can be supplied to an inverter and then passed through a wattmeter (see FIG. 5).

  FIG. 2 illustrates a portion of a road system implementation that includes a fixed wind turbine arrangement along the road. Here, the use of a 5-foot double helical wind turbine generator (item 11) is shown. Typically, these 5 foot double helix wind turbine generators can produce less energy than 10 foot double helix wind turbine generators, but they are smaller so they You only need to be 7 feet or less away. They can therefore be used at a higher density along the road. Since the 10 foot variety is higher up, the 5 foot variety may be installed within the 10 foot variety installation and both turbines operate virtually side by side along the same road while creating a stacking effect May be. In general, this stacked distribution, where different sized turbines function at their own height, can be used with wind turbine generators having a height from about 25 feet down to about a few micrometers. The established concept of using battery arrays, inverters and metering and distributing power to the grid, direct distribution or reserve storage remains valid for turbines of all sizes. Turbines can be used in a whole continuous (item 31) or semi-continuous manner based on road wind conditions, road design constraints, utility grid access, power storage access and direct distribution source access. It may be arranged (see FIG. 5).

  Figure 3 shows a 1 foot double helical wind turbine generator (item 12), a 1 inch double helical wind turbine generator (item 13) and a double helical wind turbine from 1 micrometer to several micrometers high. The continuous arrangement | positioning of a generator (item 21) is illustrated. Smaller wind turbine generators allow a greater number of wind turbine generators to be located within a given area than large wind turbine generators. Feet-long turbines (item 1) may be spaced apart by no more than 1.5 feet depending on the topography and angle of placement for each turbine in a continuous or semi-continuous installation, while a micron-long turbine is 1 Can be placed in millions on a square foot (item 41).

  FIG. 4 is covered with a solar collecting photovoltaic material such as a silicon thin film, which may be molded with a part of a wind turbine generator that does not interfere with the basic operation of the wind turbine generator, such as the part indicated by item 22. A helical wind turbine generator (item 14) may be exemplified. The collected solar energy is then fed to the center rod (item 32) and carried down to the base of the wind turbine generator (item 38), where it then passes through a typical wiring in the industry to a ground energy storage system, e.g. Can be sent into a battery pack or battery array arrangement.

  FIG. 5 illustrates a helical wind turbine generator implemented in a stacked design along a road median (item 15) and shoulder (item 23). Electricity generated from wind turbine generators is stored in the utility grid (item 81), household or business direct power (item 83), car power supply (item 82) or auxiliary battery array, or the electrolysis process To form hydrogen, store hydrogen, release energy stored in hydrogen, i.e., hydrogen facilities that can use power to convert hydrogen to generate power (item 84 (Item 8) before being distributed to the battery array (Item 33) and then to the inverter (Item 34) and registered through the meter (Item 35). A hydrogen facility may be able to generate power from stored hydrogen, for example in an emergency or during peak demand.

  Figure 6 shows how power is delivered to the battery array (item 33) and then to the inverter (item 34) and registered with the wattmeter (item 35), then the utility grid (item 81), direct distribution (item 83), auxiliary Spiral wind turbine generator (item 14), implemented as a single uniform height turbine system that distributes power to power storage (item 84) or vehicle use (item 82) (item 8) Illustrate.

  FIG. 7 schematically illustrates the flow of electrical energy or power generated by a wind energy generation device, such as a wind turbine generator (also referred to herein as a “wind turbine”) (item 16), through a road system. . The wind turbine generates energy (item 16) that is passed through one or more terrestrial energy storage systems, eg, battery arrays (item 33), through connected wiring. The energy is then passed from the battery in DC form to one or more inverters (item 34) that change electricity to AC form and adjust the electricity to the specifications required by the distribution point, where it is metered Through the vessel (item 35), then the utility grid (item 81), one or more vehicles (item 82), direct distribution points such as home or business (item 83), fuel supply for electric or hydrogen electrolysis machines Or distributed to further storage (item 84) through hydrogen conversion electrolysis or auxiliary battery array storage.

  FIG. 8 illustrates a solar panel, which is also a continuous detail of a backed solar membrane (item 100) that is placed along the side of the road (item 3) and the median strip (item 5). It may be a piece. Solar membranes can be cut so that they fit during the manufacturing process and can be easier to implement because they can be printed on several miles of continuous films. Some new films also do not use silicon, and also use nanotechnology to create new types of solar films such as those developed by Nanosolar (nanosolar.com). The ability to produce several miles of membranes or cut smaller sections in various lengths and widths is favorable considering the road breakage, replacement, maintenance and physical and political building restrictions that are factors in individual road implementations . Panels or lined membranes may be attached to median guardrails (item 51) or roadside guardrails (item 52) or fixed to the ground through depth or pile driving techniques to support the device Alternatively, it may be assembled into a beam (item 53). Panel or membrane displays can be specially ordered around the object, pyramid configuration (item 54), flat facing the sky (item 55), mirrored side (item 56), or directly with sunlight. An electronic gradient (item 57) built to maximize solar collection material access to contact may be included.

  FIG. 9 shows the close contact of solar collection material along the road (items 101, 102, over existing structures of uniform and non-uniform shape, such as roadsides and median guardrails. And 103) and how the solar membrane can be molded at the installation site for a specific area of installation to provide continuous (item 101) or semi-continuous (item 104) implementation. Illustrate.

  FIG. 10 illustrates the use of a sprayed solar power cell, referred to herein as a solar photovoltaic coating, which creates an energy collection material that may be five times more efficient than current solar cell technology In order to collect both solar energy and infrared heat, using a spray-type solar power cell material that utilizes nanotechnology to mix quantum dots with polymers, the road itself like a lane marker It may be sprayed on top (item 105) or on guardrails (items 51 and 52). The sprayed material is efficiently planned at the storage point so that the energy collected by the sprayed material is transferred to the battery array and inverter, and then to an energy distribution point such as a utility grid, direct distribution or auxiliary storage. Underneath it would have a conductive infrastructure similar to solar membranes and panels (see FIG. 5).

  FIG. 11 illustrates a solar panel (item 100) placed in a roadside lane in a continuous manner, supplemented by a backed solar membrane (item 106) and spray solar material formed on a guardrail. Various solar technologies may be used consistently to implement a comprehensive and continuous or semi-continuous implementation of solar energy collection material along the road system. The solar panel is placed on the side of the road and the median divider along with the sprayed solar power cell, "Solar Paint" (item 105), which can be a solar film, but also sprayed like a road marker Also good. These road markers may also be used and placed more widely on the road, especially on the shoulder, to maximize the potential for coverage and power collection.

  Figure 12 illustrates a solar panel placed on the side of a road (item 100) and median strip along with a sprayed solar power cell, "solar paint" (item 105), sprayed like a road marker It can also be a solar film. These road markers may also be used and placed more widely on the road, especially on the shoulder, to maximize the potential for coverage and power collection. Collected power goes to the battery (item 33), then to the inverter (item 34), then to the utility grid (item 81), to the home or business (item 83), to the car (item 82) through the wiring connection Or transferred to an auxiliary energy storage or meter (Item 35) that registers the amount of energy distributed to the hydrogen facility (Item 84) (Item 8).

  FIG. 13 illustrates a flow chart defining the steps from solar energy collection to distribution in the road system. One or more solar collection devices such as solar panels, lined solar membranes and spray solar power cells are installed along the road in a continuous or semi-continuous configuration (item 100). Solar energy generation devices are networked through the road system electrical grid via wiring and input / output connections to effectively utilize batteries and battery arrays (item 33) as is standard in the solar energy collection industry ( Item 9). The energy stored in the battery is then passed through one inverter or multiple inverters (item 34) to coordinate energy transfer to the distribution point. When energy is delivered to a distribution point, electricity provided to that point is measured through the use of a watt hour meter (item 35). Distribution points that may be delivered include utility grid (item 81), car (item 82), direct distribution to business or home (item 83), hydrogen electrolysis and storage facility or battery storage facility (item 84) .

  FIG. 14 illustrates the integration of a cooperative implementation of both wind and solar energy collection systems along the road system. The system includes the installation of side-by-side wind and solar systems adjacent to and even within the energy collection device. The wind energy collection device is implemented in a stacked design along the road median and shoulder (item 150). The power generated from the device is stored in the grid, directly in the home or business, stored in the car power supply or in the auxiliary battery array or converted to hydrogen using an electrolysis process, Stored until power is needed, such as in an emergency, or distributed to be stored strategically to be sold to grid systems or direct distribution use during peak demand (Item 8) Before, it is passed to the battery array (item 33) and then to the inverter (item 34) and registered through the measuring instrument (item 35). Wind energy generation devices may also be covered with solar energy generation devices, i.e., they may be molded into parts of the device that do not interfere with the basic operation of the turbine, thin film or spray solar power cells ("solar It may be covered with a solar collection material such as “paint” ”(item 107). The thin film solar panel may also be combined with a small, eg micrometer sized wind energy generating device (item 108). The collected solar energy provides power directly to wind energy generation devices, such as spiral wind turbine generators, when wind power is not available, and makes the spiral wind turbine generator turbine faster when wind is available. The solar power that can be used to rotate or is collected is fed to the center rod and carried down to the base of the turbine, where it is passed through a typical wiring in the industry through a battery pack or battery array arrangement ( To item 33), then to the inverter (item 34), to the meter (item 35) and then distributed as described above. The wind system is part of a free installation where the designed area is allocated for both wind and solar power system implementations along the road. A solar system with a wind system is one or more solar collections such as solar panels, lined solar membranes and sprayed solar power cells that are installed in a continuous or semi-continuous manner along the road Consists of devices. The solar energy generating device is then networked through wiring and input / output connections to effectively utilize batteries and battery arrays (item 33) as is standard in the solar energy collection industry.

  FIG. 16 shows that both wind power (item 16) and solar (item 100) energy generation devices as described in FIG. 14 can be used for utility grid (item 81), car (item 82), home and business direct distribution ( Before being used as energy to be distributed through changes to hydrogen to be distributed in item 83) or stored in a compression tank through hydrogen generation through large battery arrays or through electrolysis, they The flow diagram illustrates the transfer of energy to the battery (item 33), then to the inverter (item 34), and then registering the amount of energy through the meter (item 35).

  FIG. 17 shows a mobile phone installed in a car, for example a car (item 1000), at a toll booth, rest facility, exit or other authorized service station and power storage (item 1001) Illustrates the implementation and installation of a type small spiral turbine wind energy collection sheet (item 109). Once the car and owner are registered in the system, the solar collection unit (s) may be installed by the car driver themselves or trained service center personnel (item 1002) May be installed. The helical turbine seat unit (item 109) can be installed at the top, bottom or side of the car. The power drawn from the turbine is stored in the vehicle in one or more on-board energy storage systems, such as batteries or battery packs (Figure 18, item 111), which can be automatically or when checked Delivered to the service station (item 1001) for system credits for the collected energy issued by item 1003). The collected energy may also be used to power the vehicle elements directly, and the owner can use one or more on-vehicle energy storage systems, such as batteries or battery packs (Figure 18, item 111). In this situation where the value is similar to the credit that would be given to the power collected by), you would get a discount on the metered power used or consumed by the car. System credits can be repaid in the form of toll credits, cash payments, or credits in participating businesses including power companies and consumer goods companies.

  Figure 18 shows snap-on clips (item 110), adhesives, magnetic bonds, static bonds between the car surface and the installation seat (item 109), and can be removed or removed during the car production process or overlay reinforcement 6 illustrates a portable spiral wind turbine vehicle installation seat or paper (item 109) affixed to a car through a fixed screw attachment system attached to the vehicle. One or more on-vehicle storage systems, such as a battery or battery array for storing power, may be inside the vehicle, outside (item 111), trunk or lower, or under the hood. The car helix wind turbine (item 109) may individually be as small as 1 micron or as high as 2 feet. One turbine or millions of turbines may occupy a single vehicle installation seat or paper (item 109).

  FIG. 19 illustrates that the spiral wind turbine installation seat is not only intended to be attached to the top of the car, but can also be used for installation in the lower region of the car (item 109). The lack of uniform wind and the presence of “dusty wind” advantageously and effectively uses the spiral turbine to collect wind energy from different parts of the moving car. In addition to securing the turbine, the installation sheet (item 109) forms a matrix grid of wiring (item 112), consisting of the wiring coming from each individual turbine generator. The matrix wiring from each turbine is then delivered to the battery for charging (item 113) with one integrated wiring output connection.

  FIG. 20 illustrates an overhead view of a car with a spiral wind collection installation sheet or paper (item 109), along with a composite view of the installation sheet, and one or more on-vehicle energy storages during operation. Drive along the road while generating wind power stored in a system, for example a battery or battery pack (item 111), the installation seat (item 109) may be installed, removed or fully charged The battery passes through a toll booth service area (item 1001) that can be switched off or reinstalled for a new battery. Maintenance and accounting information may also be obtained at the service area.

  FIG. 21 illustrates a flowchart for a car wind energy collection system. The flow begins with the installation (item 1090) of a manufactured wind spiral turbine installation sheet or paper (item 109), along with a battery or battery array system (item 111). Cars and owners are registered in the service area (item 1091) and using one or more installed on-board wind energy generation devices and on-board energy storage systems (e.g. batteries or battery arrays) (item 1093). Is placed in the road system to collect energy (item 1092) and the installation of the car wind energy collection system is completed. The wind collection system fills the battery or battery array with energy stored as electricity by the battery or battery array. The battery pack is then returned at the service center (item 1094) where the energy collected by the vehicle wind energy collection system identified by the vehicle and / or owner is registered and credited to the vehicle and / or owner. Or may be exchanged.

The stored energy may then be electrically connected to the road system by discharging electrical energy to the road system electrical grid. Alternatively, the energy storage system (item 220) may be recharged by the road system electrical grid. The advantage of the solar generation device (item 114) being electrically connected to the road system electrical grid is that the driver of the car (item 82) can drive the electric energy from the sun that he / she placed under control. That is, you may want to sell to the owner (s) of the system electrical grid. Alternatively, the driver may also purchase electricity from the road system electricity grid on a cloudy day. The electricity may then be stored in an energy storage system (item 220).

Most preferably, the cars can be automobiles and passenger cars. The vehicle as discussed above (item 82) is an electric vehicle, however, the vehicle may be a gasoline-electric hybrid vehicle or a combustion engine vehicle.

  FIG. 36 illustrates an energy storage system (item 220) according to the present invention. The energy storage system (item 220) may include a plurality of batteries (items 111a, 111b,..., 111n) that may be rechargeable, a storage box (item 235), and a display unit (item 245). There may be more than one battery (items 111a, 111b,..., 111n) connected in a series, parallel or series-parallel configuration. The type of battery may be, for example, NiMH, Li ion, and solid Li ion. Each battery (items 111a, 111b,..., 111n) may fit into a slot in the storage box (item 235). The slot may have a take-out row to make it easier to remove the batteries (items 111a, 111b,..., 111n). The storage box (item 235) may have a port (item 240) that is electrically connected to the car (item 82). The driver of the car (item 82) may remove the storage box (item 235) from the car (item 82) and own the controlled electric energy (s) of the road system electric grid (s) You may sell it to a person.

If the batteries (items 111a, 111b, ..., 111n) are being recharged by the road system electrical grid, the display unit (item 245) is the battery (items 111a, 111b, ..., 111n) It may have a green color to indicate that it is fully charged.

  An example wind turbine generator is illustrated in FIG. These wind turbine generators can use turbines that rotate about an axis oriented in any direction. For example, in a “horizontal axis turbine”, the turbine rotates about a horizontal axis, which is typically oriented more or less parallel to the ground. Further, in a “vertical axis turbine”, the turbine rotates about a vertical axis, which is typically more or less vertically oriented to the ground. For example, the vertical axis turbine may be a Darrieus wind turbine, a Giromill Darrieus wind turbine, a Savonius wind turbine, a propeller turbine, a “spiral turbine”, and the like. In a helical turbine, the turbine blades are helical and rotate about a vertical axis. The helical turbine can have a single helix design or a multiple helix design, such as a double helix, triple helix or quadruple helix design. Spiral wind turbine generators do not rely on unidirectional winds, which is good because winds often come in non-uniform directions or even in crossing directions. The wind energy generating device can have a geometric dimension from about a few nanometers to about a few hundred feet. Nanometer-to-micrometer scale wind energy collection devices replace one or more materials that exhibit strong piezoelectric effects, such as one or more nanowires and / or micrometers of zinc oxide, which replace the turbines and generators described above. A wire may be included. These nanowires and microwires can collect wind energy and generate electricity, thus substituting the functions of the turbine and generator described above. Each wire is believed to mechanically deform in response to the wind, for example, to bend, thereby converting some of the wind energy into electrical energy through the piezoelectric effect.

  “Ground” as used herein refers to the surface to which the wind energy collection device is attached, eg, literally the earth's ground, road surface, road sign, road noise barrier surface, tunnel surface, wind energy collection sheet Surface, passenger car surface and the like.

  The “height” of a wind energy collection device or wind turbine generator as used herein is the height measured vertically from the ground adjacent to the device or generator to the highest point of the device or generator. is there. Wind energy collection devices can have a height between about a few micrometers and hundreds of feet. For example, wind energy collection sheets using nanometer and micrometer scale wind energy collection devices with very small geometric dimensions and wind energy collection devices with very small geometric dimensions can be obtained using microfabrication methods. May be manufactured.

  Microfabrication methods for creating three-dimensional structures are well known in the art, such as photolithography such as two-photon three-dimensional lithography, RIE (reactive ion etching) or DRIE (deep reactive ion etching), etc. Etching, sputtering, CVD (chemical vapor deposition), vapor deposition, epitaxy, thermal oxidation and other thin film deposition, eg doping using thermal diffusion or ion implantation, wafer scale integration technology, wafer bonding, CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) , Wafer cleaning, nanometer and micrometer scale wiring processing, and the like. Suitable materials for microfabrication methods include, for example, silicon (eg, single crystal silicon), silicon carbide, and silicon / silicon carbide hybrid structures. Suitable materials for nanometer and micrometer scale wiring processing include, for example, gold, silicon, copper, silver and zinc oxide.

  A “piezoelectric nanowire” as used herein is a crystalline wire that exhibits a piezoelectric effect with mechanical deformation or pressure, eg, with the same mechanical deformation or pressure bending and release. An example of a suitable material is zinc oxide. These wires can be manufactured using methods well known in the art. An example array of these nanowires is shown in FIG. Typically, these nanowires 1500 have a length that is about 5 to 20 times the width, depth, or radius of the nanowires 1500. Also typically, the nanowire 1500 has a length between about 100 nanometers and a few micrometers, and a width, depth, or radius between about 5 nanometers and about 200 nanometers. Also good.

  A portion or all of a wind energy collection device having dimensions of about 1/8 inch or greater can be manufactured using, for example, molding techniques well known in the art. All wind energy collection devices, but especially those with dimensions of about 1/8 inch or larger, may replicate the well known design of larger, ie 5 to hundreds of feet wind energy collection devices, such as spiral wind turbines. Good. These designs of larger wind energy collection devices typically include elements such as charge controllers, automatic lubrication systems, simulated loads and the like to optimize the performance of the wind energy collection device.

  Wind energy collection sheets (hereinafter also “wind turbine installation sheets” or “wind turbine installation papers”) typically have a density of about 1500 to about 1 million wind energy collection devices per square meter of sheet, Wind energy collection device using multiple, for example, millions or billions of nanometer and / or micrometer scale wind energy collection devices on a sheet. The sheet may be hard or soft and may provide housing and infrastructure for wiring of wind energy collection devices and for connection wiring to inverters or battery systems to other wind energy collection sheets . The wind energy collection sheet may also use one or more smaller wind energy collection sheets.

  A nanometer and / or micrometer scale wind energy collection device on a wind energy collection sheet can be manufactured directly on a given sheet, and / or a wind energy collection device can be manufactured alone Can then be attached to a given sheet. Wiring that may be used to electrically interconnect the wind energy collection device and / or to electrically interconnect the wind energy collection device with an electrical circuit on a given sheet is, for example, in the art Includes well-known nanometer and micrometer scale wires, such as gold, silicon, copper and silver nanometer and micrometer scale wires.

  Wind energy collection devices (microdevices) with geometric dimensions up to 1/8 inch can be produced by using microfabrication methods. The three-dimensional single-component or multi-component part of the wind energy collection device can be manufactured using, for example, two-photon three-dimensional lithography, such as Focal Point Technology. Single component and multiple component parts are parts of one chemical composition, which are processed by three-dimensional lithography techniques. Examples of 3D lithography techniques that can produce multiple component parts include products and services provided by Focal Point Micro Systems® (see www.fpmicro.com). Preferably, the microdevice, or microdevice component, is made of a material suitable for both focus technology and wind turbine applications.

  Preferably, the method is used to manufacture multiple given single components or multiple component parts in parallel, thereby optimizing the production process. By applying the sheeting concept to the manufacture of microdevices, microdevices may be wired, manufactured, and placed in a sheet, to produce a large sheet of microdevices in a single manufacturing process, Allows wiring grids to be laid in a manufacturing process with micro / nano scaled stampers, presses, and scissors. Pressing the turbine seat in a multi-stage assembly process makes the process of making millions of microdevices a quick process.

  Multiple component parts may be manipulated and assembled using precision instruments such as micro tweezers (optical trap laser), micro scissors (optical cutting laser), and holographic laser. Precision laser instruments can handle objects accurately on a micro / nano scale. Examples of such precision laser instruments include products provided by Arryx® (see www.arryx.com). Very small components produced using the focus technology may then be manipulated by a precision laser instrument to be assembled into a wind energy collection microdevice. If many very small components are produced in parallel, then many precision laser instruments may be used to operate many components in parallel.

  The individual components of the microdevice, or the entire microdevice, may be made of a durable polymer-based material. Examples of such materials include materials manufactured by DSM® (see www.dsm.com). The durability of the microdevice, or microdevice component, may be tested utilizing a durability test process. An exemplary testing process may include a process performed by the FEI Company® (see www.fei.com). The test may include individual components of the microdevice, the microdevice as a whole, or the entire sheet of microdevices. An exemplary test process is to force a wind energy collection microdevice (or microdevice sheet) to receive a certain wind of MPH intensity, and an amount of electricity is based on the proper functioning of the microdevice or microdevice sheet. Determining to be generated. Note that wind testing will be performed to ensure that wind speeds up to 150MPH can be withstood, and bad sheets will be reused. The cleaning test process may subject the wind energy collection microdevice (or microdevice sheet) to mixed dust and petroleum impurities, which are then blown from the microdevice (or microdevice sheet) and washed. The cleaning test process may be repeated many times to determine a stress level suitable for multi-year installation. Because certain dimensions of microdevices or microdevice sheets may be more effective and sensible than others in certain conditions, the specific dimensions of the microdevices are dependent on the stress level and installation duration required for successful installation. It may be changed to adapt.

  Nanowires may be used to interconnect multiple microdevices together or to connect specific microturbine components. These nanowires are produced in a nanowire array and a plurality of them are attached to a common base structure. Utilizing the micro-scissors and micro-tweezers described above, when nanowires are incorporated into micro-devices or sheets of micro-devices, the nano-wires are removed from the common base structure using micro-scissors and manipulated using micro-tweezers May be. Preferably, the nanowire will be made of copper, but other metals that can conduct electricity, such as silver, may be used. The nanowires may be coated with a polymer for insulation purposes and to prevent degradation caused by bad weather conditions. Using a polymer or a similar set of materials to fabricate the microdevice and to coat the nanowires makes the microdevice washable and protects the electrical flow integrity.

  In addition, energy collection devices with geometric dimensions of 1/8 inch or greater may be manufactured. These devices may resemble wind energy collection devices made by Oy Windside Production Ltd. (see www.windside.com). The smallest wind energy collection devices made by Windside® are typically about 5 feet, however, in accordance with the principles of the present invention, smaller variations of these devices may be used in mold or injection molding processes. May be used.

  Some parts of Windside® devices, such as any microprocessor present in the device, cannot or cannot be miniaturized, but these parts need to be miniaturized Note that it is already small enough so that it may be contained within a very small wind power device. In addition, some parts of Windside® devices require lubrication to prevent wear and damage. However, the very small device of the present invention does not require lubrication because the polymer itself is a well-sliding material that creates very little friction, similar to the Teflon material.

  In addition, placing a force known as the Casimir force under control may allow the microdevice to operate with little friction. Kashmir force was discovered in 1948, first measured in 1997, and can be observed with the ability of a gecko to stick to the surface with only one toe. Reversing the Kashmir force causes an object to repel rather than attract another object. Applying this inverse Kashmir force to embodiments of the present invention will reduce friction in the microturbine and allow the microdevice to operate more efficiently.

  Referring to FIG. 37C, the assembly of the wind energy collection microdevice uses at least one microscissor to separate the nanowires from their respective nanowire array base structure (3755) and uses at least one microtweezer. Moving the separated nanowires to a desired location (3760). At this time, the components of the wind energy collection microdevice may also be moved to the desired location using at least one microtweezer (3765).

Additional nanowires may be incorporated into the component (3780) and configured to transfer energy placed under control away from the component (3785). Returning to FIG. 37A, the assembled wind energy collection microdevice may be attached to a sheet along with other wind energy collection microdevices (3720) and tested for durability (3725).

  FIG. 39A illustrates an example on-board wind energy collection system (item 1700) for collecting wind energy for system credit and depositing wind generated energy. On-board wind energy collection system (item 1700) includes on-board wind energy collection device (item 109), on-board energy storage system (item 111), and means for depositing stored wind-generated energy for system credit (item 115).

  In operation, wind or wind energy (item 1701) is collected by the on-board wind energy collection device (item 109). The device (item 109) then generates wind-generated energy. That is, the onboard wind energy collection device (item 109) converts or otherwise converts wind energy (item 1701) to wind generated energy such as electricity. The onboard wind energy collection device (item 109) passes wind generated energy to the onboard energy storage system (item 111). The onboard energy storage system (item 111) stores wind generated energy generated from the onboard wind energy collection device (item 109). The stored wind-generated energy is deposited by means (item 115) for depositing the stored wind-generated energy for system credit. Preferably, the deposited wind-generated energy (item 1702) is in a form that is readily available for downloading, storing, or transmitting to a utility (or power) grid, to name a few example forms. .

  Any combination of on-board wind energy collection device (item 109), on-board energy storage system (item 111), and means for depositing stored wind-generated energy for system credits (item 115) is practically almost It may be provided to participants of the on-board wind energy collection system (item 1700) at no cost. For example, the above is provided to participants at a fraction of the total cost described above or even free of charge. In yet another embodiment, some portion of the system credit “earned” by depositing stored wind-generated energy is appropriated for the costs described above.

  Alternatively, instead of paying for the above, the deposit will deposit the onboard wind energy collection device (item 109), the onboard energy storage system (item 111), and the stored wind generated energy for system credit In order to ensure a safe revenue of the means (item 115), it may be secured from participants of the on-board wind energy collection system (item 1700). Such deposit may be secured through the participant's financial institution or through a cash deposit.

  In this way, participants in the on-board wind energy collection system (item 1700) spend considerable resources to collect wind energy for system credit and deposit wind generated energy (e.g., You may not need it to purchase). Further, participants in the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700) may be stimulated or otherwise motivated to participate in the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700).

  System credits collect on-board wind energy in the form of toll credits, cash payments, participating business credits, local or government tax / fee credits, other public utilities / public service credits, or the like Participants in the system (item 1700) may be repaid or otherwise credited. For example, system credits may be credited to a participant's existing account with an electronic toll collection system such as FASTLANE or EZPASS. Alternatively, system credits may be credited to participant accounts that are monitored and maintained separately from such electronic toll collection systems. For example, participants in the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700) may use system credits as credits in transactions with power companies, consumer goods companies or financial institutions.

  Those skilled in the art will readily recognize that the principles of the present invention are not limited to the embodiments presented above and may include other forms of system credits. For example, participants in the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700) may be credited with one or more combinations of the above examples.

  In addition to participants, system credits may be split or otherwise shared with co-stakeholders in the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700). For example, system credits may include equipment for an onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700) (e.g., an onboard wind energy collection device (item 109), an onboard energy storage system (item 111), and stored wind energy. May be allocated between the company that owns the means for depositing the system credits (item 115) and the company that installs such a device in the participant's car. System credits may be allocated to additional co-stakeholders such as local authorities or state highway departments. System credits may also be allocated to a smaller number of co-founders. For example, a single company, rather than an individual company, also owns and installs equipment for the on-board energy collection system (item 1700).

  Thus, the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700) creates a format for widespread distribution of onboard wind energy collection devices that may have millions of participants.

  FIG. 39B illustrates an example implementation and installation of the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700) described with reference to FIG. 39A. In this example, an on-board wind energy collection device (item 109), such as a small helical wind turbine vehicle installation seat (s), and an on-board energy storage system (not shown) and stored energy system Other devices, such as means for depositing credit (not shown), are installed in or on a car, such as a car (item 1000).

Authorized service stations and power stores (item 1001) may be located at toll booths, rest facilities, exits or other convenient locations.

  At authorized service stations and power stores (item 1001), the cashier (item 1003) can be used by the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700) or the onboard wind energy collection device (item 109), the onboard energy storage system ( Items 111) and transactions involving payments or deposits for elements of the system such as means for depositing stored wind-generated energy for system credits (item 115) may be processed. The cashier (item 1003) also provides installation fees / fees and vehicle / car owner / participant registration (or similar associations) for the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700) and / or system elements (item 1770). ) May be processed.

  In another embodiment, once a vehicle and / or a participant (e.g., a car owner) is registered with the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700), the onboard wind energy collection device (item 109) and the vehicle Other devices such as the upper energy storage system (item 111) and the means to deposit stored wind-generated energy for system credits (item 115) may be installed by the participants themselves (not shown) . Thus, the onboard wind energy collection device (item 109) and other equipment, if any, is configured or otherwise adapted to be installed by participants of the onboard wind energy collection system (item 1700).

  FIG. 40B illustrates an example process of another embodiment of an on-board wind energy collection system (item 2150) for collecting wind energy for system credit and depositing wind generated energy. Exemplary systems (item 2150) include on-board wind energy collection devices (e.g., item 109 in FIG.39A) such as small helical wind turbine installation seats or paperboard, onboard energy storage systems such as batteries or battery arrays ( For example, item 111 in FIG. 39A) and means for depositing stored wind-generated energy for system credit (eg, item 115 in FIG. 39A) are placed in or on the subject vehicle (item 1090).

  An example system (item 2150) registers a car (item 1000) and a participant (eg, a car owner) with the on-board wind energy collection system (item 2150) (item 1091). An example system (item 2150) places a car (item 1000) on a road or roadway system (item 1092). The example system (item 2150) collects wind energy using an on-board wind energy collection device (eg, item 109 of FIG. 39A) and generates wind-generated energy (or power) (item 1093). An example system (item 2150) stores wind-generated energy in an on-board energy storage system (eg, item 111 of FIG. 39A) (item 1094).

  An example system (item 2150) deposits stored wind-generated energy (item 1095), for example, by returning or replacing a battery or battery array at a service center. The example system (item 2150) identifies the deposited wind-generated energy as deposited by a car and / or participant registered with the on-board wind energy collection system (not shown). The example system (item 2150) credits identified vehicles and / or participants.

  The example system (item 2150) distributes the deposited wind power generation energy to, for example, the utility grid (item 81) (item 8). In the case of an example system (item 2150) that distributes the generated wind energy generated to the utility grid (item 81), the example system (item 2150) uses an inverter to generate wind power. Adjust the generated energy (not shown).

  In yet another embodiment, the example system (item 2150) distributes the generated wind energy directly to the business or home (item 83), i.e., directly (item 8).

  In yet another embodiment, an exemplary system (item 2150) distributes deposited wind-generated energy to an auxiliary battery or battery array (item 84) for energy storage or hydrogen electrolysis (item 84). 8).

  In another embodiment, an exemplary system (item 2150) is filed January 19, 2007, assigned to GENEDICS LLC, the deposited wind-generated energy, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Distribution to a road system electrical grid (item 85) described in US patent application Ser. No. 11 / 624,987 entitled “System and method for creating a networked infrastructure distribution platform of solar energy gathering devices”.

  FIG. 41 illustrates an example road system (item 3500) for solar energy generation and distribution. A plurality of solar energy generating devices, such as a solar panel of FIG. 12 (item 100) and / or a road line coated with the photovoltaic coating of FIG. 12 (item 105), has at least one solar strip array (item 3505a ... 3505f, forming item 3505) as a whole. At least one solar strip array (item 3505) collects energy from the sun or is otherwise under control to generate “solar generated energy”. Throughout this disclosure, the phrase “solar generated energy” is used interchangeably with the phrase “solar generated power”.

  At least one solar strip array (item 3505) is placed or otherwise positioned at a portion of the road or near one or more roads. Thus, a potential installation range is hundreds of thousands of miles of available roads. Compare at least one solar strip array (item 3505) to a part of the road or one of the roads compared to a solar array placed on the roof of a building such as a home or a solar array placed in a remote area such as a desert Alternatively, placing multiple closes allows easier access for maintenance personnel. In addition, there is an opportunity for greater access to the utility grid and additional direct power supply to homes and businesses.

  Further, to generate solar generated energy, at least one solar strip array (item 3505) is placed on or otherwise positioned near a portion of the road or near one or more roads. It may be said that a road network or system is formed.

  In some embodiments, at least one solar strip array (item 3505) is collected and thus maximizes the amount of energy from the sun that may be generated into solar generated energy, It may be placed on a part of the road or near one or more of the road. For example, a road running in the latitude direction (ie, east to west and west to east) can “track” the sun as it “moves” across the sky. In another example, a road running in the longitude direction (ie, north to south and south to north) can collect energy from the sun along the longitude line.

  Continuing with FIG. 41, at least one solar strip array (item 3505) (e.g., 3505a, 3505b, and 3505c) is electrically connected in parallel to the road system electrical grid (item 3510) by a power line (item 3515). The Alternatively, at least one solar strip array (item 3505) (eg, 3505d, 3505e, and 3505f) is electrically connected to a road system electrical grid (item 3510) by a battery pack system (item 3520). Further, at least one solar strip array (item 3505) may be electrically connected to the road system electrical grid (item 3510) in such a way as to form a parallel circuit, a series circuit, or a combination of parallel and series circuits. Good.

  Solar generated energy is the power regulated by the inverter (items 3525a and 3525b). The watt hour meter (items 3530a and 3530b) measures the amount of solar generated energy produced by the at least one solar strip array (item 3505). Accordingly, the road system electrical grid (item 3510) measures the amount of regulated solar generated energy provided by the at least one solar strip array (item 3505).

  Solar generated energy generated by at least one solar strip array (item 3505) and provided to the road system electrical grid (item 3510) passes through the distribution points (item 3535a ... 3535e, item 3535 as a whole) through the road system electrical grid (item 3535). Distributed by item 3510). The distribution point (item 3535) can be, for example, a utility grid (e.g., item 81 in FIG. 12), a car (e.g., item 82 in FIG. And configured to distribute solar generated energy to a storage facility or battery storage facility (eg, item 84 in FIG. 12). Accordingly, the road system electrical grid (item 3510) is configured for mass distribution of electricity.

  In contrast, solar arrays placed on buildings (e.g., house rooftops) or on private land (e.g., fields adjacent to farmland) are configured to provide solar-generated energy for personal consumption. The That is, it is the intention of a real person, such as a homeowner or farmer, to use such a solar array to generate solar generated energy for his own use. For example, homeowners install solar panels in their homes to reduce the cost of supplying energy to the homes. In another embodiment, the farmer installs a solar panel in the field to provide power for a well pump to draw water to an isolated section of farmland that does not have access to utilities.

  As a result, for solar arrays so placed, there is no need or desire to distribute solar generated energy to others, ie to distribute solar generated energy in large quantities. Further, with respect to the solar array so placed, there is no need or desire for a road system electrical grid configured to distribute solar generation energy in large quantities, which is the road system electrical grid of the present invention (item 3510). Is in stark contrast.

  An electricity meter (items 3540a ... 3540d, 3540 as a whole) measures, for example, the amount of solar generated energy distributed to direct power users such as homes. Accordingly, the road system electrical grid (item 3510) measures the amount of adjusted solar generated energy provided by the road system electrical grid (item 3510).

  A road system electrical grid (item 3510) is a battery pack (item 3545) for storing solar generated energy, for example, if the road system electrical grid (item 3510) fails or is otherwise inoperable. May be included. In this way, solar generated energy generated by at least one solar strip array (item 3505) can be stored without substantial loss even though it cannot distribute the energy so generated. can do. Solar generated energy stored by the battery pack (item 3545) may then be distributed once the road system electrical grid (item 3510) is operational.

  The road system electrical grid (item 3510) also includes a switch (item 3550) for passing solar generated energy from the first solar strip array to the second solar strip array in an automated manner, for example, based on usage or distribution demand. ) May be included. For example, solar generated energy generated by a first solar strip array (e.g., item 3505a) may be distributed by a road system electrical grid (item 3510) directly to a user such as a power load or business or home. . The amount of solar generated energy that is distributed directly to the power load may be insufficient to meet the current demand for the direct power load, such as the increasing use of air conditioning equipment. When the road system electrical grid (item 3510) senses increasing demand from the direct power load, the second solar strip array (to increase or otherwise increase the power already distributed to the direct power load) For example, the solar generated energy generated by item 3505d) is passed or otherwise routed. In this way, the road system electrical grid (item 3510) corresponds to the distribution demand. Alternatively, the road system electrical grid (item 3510) may be programmed to distribute solar generated energy according to estimated or otherwise anticipated distribution demand. For example, during business hours, the demand for solar generated energy by business is higher than the demand for solar generated energy by households. However, during non-business hours or weekends, household demand is higher than business demand. Thus, the road system electricity grid (item 3510) may pass solar generated energy from solar strip arrays near the home during business hours and distribute such power to the business, during non-business hours or weekends. The reverse may be possible.

  The road system electrical grid (item 3510) may also include, for example, an energy distribution repository (item 3555) to store, transmit and recondition solar generated energy.

  FIG. 42 is a schematic representation of a nanowire wind energy generation device (item 2005). Some nanowires (item 2000) are attached to the surface (item 2010) of a hard or soft sheet (item 2001), which can be conductive, but is not limited to being conductive. The nanowire is electrically connected through an electrical connection (item 2002) to a circuit (item 2004) that collects the electrical energy generated by the nanowire and allows the flow of current (item 2003) out of the device.

  Although the invention has been shown and described in detail with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it will be understood that various forms and details can be made without departing from the scope of the invention as encompassed by the appended claims. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that such changes may be made therein.
