Summary of the technology

Schwimmfähige Photovoltaikanlage / Floatable Photovoltaic System to produce Electric Energy using floatable Aluminum- plates in thermal contact with Photovoltaic Elements. Weather dependend heating of the Photovoltaic Elements will reduce their efficiency in producing Electric Energy.
Cooling the Photovoltaic System (PV) down to receive Electric Power more effiently when exposed under high Global radiation.
High Global Radiation (W/m²) could heat up PV e.g. to 60° C and result in a so called "Voltage drop".

The
Photovoltaic System combined in thermal contact with cooling elements could be used on air.

Further Research on this matter is planned.

Solar trackers based on parallel kinematics for its integration into Smart Grids

The technology involves a machine that supports solar modules (photovoltaic, thermal or hybrid) increasing significantly its energy efficiency. The main feature of both solar trackers is its simplicity of the machine and its parallel kinematics working principle. Its structure provides a robust support and wider distribution of efforts and a great modularity. Thus, these systems adapt better to the geometric constraints for tilting and facing and restrictions of size and weight of the supporting structure.

Innovative mechanism for integral cleaning and maintenance of wind turbines

At present, and since the introduction of wind turbine parks high altitude, it is difficult to clean the outside of the towers and wind turbine blades with traditional systems. For reasons of typical maintenance tasks, often occur spills of fluids and lubricants transmissions machinery transforming the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy which is sent to the network. These fluids to spill soiled the wind turbine tower. On the other hand, it must undertake periodical cleaning of wind turbine blades on them because remains of insects that collide with the blades are. These remains make the blade is losing its effectiveness. Furthermore periodic revision is necessary due to fatigue that are subjected to wind turbine blades forcing periodic visual inspections to prevent breakage thereof and therefore stopping the wind turbine. Researchers at the University of Burgos have developed a solution that perform such tasks without being necessary that operators should climb the tower of the wind turbine.

Wind flow Interface concentrator for VAWT

The researchers of the University have developed a wind flow concentrator incorporated into a Vertical Axe Wind (VAWT), which allows a significant increase in wind speed before being injected to the turbine. The system allows the optimization of the currents with independence of its direction and it is applicable to any type of VAWT. It is suitable for any type of building.
