摘要： The present invention provides a heated underside apparatus which removes snow/icy mass buildup from motor vehicles. The invention comprises panel sections located along the lateral peripheral sides of an automobile as well as along the front and back periphery, along the bumpers. The panel sections are comprised of a heating element embedded in a thermally conductive material which radiates thermal energy. The heated underside apparatus is adapted such that it is powered by the power source of the vehicle, i.e., the battery, or an auxiliary power supply operatively connected to the vehicle. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the apparatus comprises a feedback system which operates by real time monitoring of temperature and moisture levels to thereby maintain threshold levels above freezing point until the snow/icy mass buildup is removed.

摘要： An electrical energy storage and regeneration system uses the electricity generated by the dynamic brakes of a diesel-electric locomotive to convert water into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas by hydro-electrolysis. The gases are compressed, cooled and stored in tanks for subsequent use to supply fuel cells. Electricity generated by an electro-chemical reaction in the fuel cells is used to power the locomotive traction motors when needed. Alternatively, the regenerated electricity can be used to supplement a local or regional power supply, particularly in times of shortage. The water by-product from the fuel cell electricity generation is collected and stored for use in hydro-electrolysis during a subsequent power storage/regeneration cycle. In a preferred embodiment, the system, defining a hydro power cell, includes a water storage tank, a hydro-electrolysis unit, low pressure compressors, fuel cells, oxygen concentrators, DC/AC inverters, and electrical controllers all contained on a designated railroad car connected directly behind a multi-unit locomotive consist. The hydrogen and oxygen gas storage tanks, as well as high pressure compressors, may be carried on the same train car or a separate car.

摘要： A method, system and computer program product enhance the commercial value of electrical power produced from a wind turbine production facility. Features include the use of a premier power conversion device that provides an alternative source of power for supplementing an output power of the wind turbine generation facility when lull periods for wind speed appear. The invention includes a communications infrastructure and coordination mechanism for establishing a relationship with another power production facility such that when excess electrical power is produced by the wind turbine facility, the excess may be provided to the power grid while the other energy production facility cuts back on its output production by a corresponding amount. A tracking mechanism keeps track of the amount of potential energy that was not expended at the other facility and places this amount in a virtual energy storage account, for the benefit of the wind turbine facility. When, the wind turbine power production facility experiences a shortfall in its power production output it may make a request to the other source of electric power, and request that an increase its power output on behalf of the wind turbine facility. This substitution of one power production facility for another is referred to herein as a virtual energy storage mechanism. Furthermore, another feature of the present invention is the use of a renewal power exchange mechanism that creates a market for trading renewable units of power, which have been converted into nullpremier powernull and/or nullguaranteednull by secondary sources of power source to provide a reliable source of power to the power grid as required by contract.
