Taxi’s Rooftop Wind Energy Charges Cell Phones
Sponsored Links
Ecolo21 Co., Ltd, a taxi company in Japan, is offering a cell phone’s battery charging service to the passengers. It uses the electricity generated by a wind turbine mounted on a taxi’s roof. This service is to promote the use of clean energy following the enactment of the Kyoto Protocol.
The taxi’s rooftop wind turbine has a built-in generator so that wind energy is converted to electricity. The electricity is stored in the car’s battery and then sent to a cigarette lighter socket. By connecting a charger to the socket, passengers can charge their cell phones. The company installed this system in one of its taxis, and it is planning to install an improved version in its remaining 19 taxis by the autumn of 2005.
