Tesla has just released a battery pack system for domestic use (10/5 ).
It is becoming more and more obvious now that as the government supports coal at the cost of renewable technologies, we support an inefficient, outdated and dirty energy source.
As industrialized countries around the world accept clean energy technology (in Germany, electricity comes from renewable energy), Australia will be left behind and potential assets will be stranded.
We will also miss the opportunity for this expanding new industry, where manufacturers are at risk due to the government's reluctance to resolve disputes over renewable energy targets and look to the future of clean energy.
Unfortunately, Dennis O'Connell of Ivanhoe, the 10Kw Tesla battery has only 50 cycles, so it's almost useless after 50 days of solar charging, though
The smaller "7Kw" was also blocked by executives at Tesla's associates, panel installer Sun City, who said it was "not suitable" for solar storage.
Tesla's chairman Elon Musk is also the chairman of the Solar City, which is a bit surprising.
The problem is that due to the high energy density of lithium but poor retention, the lithium battery runs out after a few hours.
Not good for the fridge and today's Watthungry TVs.
Families still have to be on the grid, and the price of electricity on the US grid is half the price here.
At the same time, an Australian mobile battery, which is about to be mass-produced in Mexico, has been cycling every day for three consecutive years and has produced a stable and consistent current.
It can be fully discharged and then fully charged to provide current almost indefinitely.
So, it is disappointing that while Australia has long been a leader in this area and our technology has been praised overseas, local inventors have found that it is almost impossible for their products to be made locally
For example, vanadium redox mobile batteries are now well established in China, but, like the current flat panel solar technology, it originated at the University of New State.
Compared to Tesla hoopla, our zinc Bromo cell seems to work dull --
But it works.
Richard Campbell of ToorakThe Age (10/5) has three important contributions to solar energy;
The first applauded the progress of renewable energy in Germany, and the second was electricity storage, which reminded us that the alliance and Labor were far behind in the environment.
The coalition's policy is to ignore global warming by supporting coal mining and coal mining --
Power generation.
My partner and I, the pensioner, have been using solar for 20 years and have finally received a feed reward
A tariff of 66 cents per kilowatt hour.
However, when we narrowed down to a new house in this country, the tariff was cut to 6. 2 cents.
Our smart meter tells us that the solar energy we export to the grid is three times as much as the solar energy we get from the grid. We are paid 6.
2 cents, 30 cents must be paid.
We were cheated with Australians.
Like Germany, we seem to need more green representation in government.
Brian Moynihan, the deep-rooted homelessness problem at carmelne is a disturbing symptom from compassion: a spouse, if you like it ("The age of the homeless is wealth, premium, 10/5 ).
As Australia became richer, the Australian people became more fearful and greedy, abandoning the values based on compassion and respect for human rights.
This despicable act extends to the reduced funding of support networks that traditionally deal with the causes of homelessness and poverty, depriving us of our responsibility for asylum seekers and indigenous peoples, and refuse to contribute to foreign aid.
It also spread to our judicial system.
The slogan "crack down on crime" led to a surge in prison population, with millions of people making profits from education and other programs.
We are so lacking in shame that we are trying to export our policies to asylum seekers and stop action on climate change.
Sadly, the less proud we are, the more passionately we wave flags, and the more desperately we remember the long-faded history.
It must be time to tell a new story.
Hedberg's Don Stoke, who works as a case manager at a housing organization, sees the impact of stable housing.
Ending Homelessness requires a house, and once a person has that foundation, they can rebuild their lives.
We know it works, and by providing a set of support services, I see a change in life and hope to be restored.
We have a better understanding of mental health, disability and domestic violence than we did 25 years ago.
With government support and increased community awareness, we can end homelessness with hope.
Dylan Jansz, Pascoe Vale Karl Fender ("The Only Way Is Up", 10/5) praised Gao
Rise the apartment, but when he says high-
Must "build and add value in the right place ".
Many Melburnians generally do not object to the higher density that the apartment brings, but to the design of many apartments that allow people to live only in shoe boxes-usually there is no natural light or fresh air in the bedroom.
Left to developers and their insatiable pursuit of return on investment, we can expect more returns, and Melbourne will lack a wealth of housing reserves in a range of apartment sizes.
Some new apartments are only 39 square meters.
The lowest apartment area has been legislated in other states.
Bring it to Victoria.
Jennifer Mansfield, MelbourneI is tired of sympathizing with my letters and articles on my crowded submarine
Standard Tower (letter 10/5 ).
I have been living in nyarata for the past three years.
Inside, it is five beds long and two beds wide.
I like the space very much.
In my 1980 s and 90 s, I lived in a block in Canterbury with tennis courts.
My supermarket, tennis court, many cars are in the tower.
Park for friends and walk to CBD along Yarra.
All the towers around me are the works of our best and famous architects.
Maybe I'm a snob.
When I was 66, I was happy that there was almost nothing to clean.
I feel sorry for their neighbors seeing their garden.
There is more privacy in the tower.
The development and occupation of point coal ports in the Nerida Blashki Pohl, South Asia pull, the Galilee River basin are all meaningless developments.
Release a lot of carbon pollution.
Possible damage to the Great Barrier Reef tick
Offshore profits.
Contribute to climate change rather than sustainable solutions.
Why is the Queensland government and the Commonwealth Bank talking about supporting things that are so harmful to the lives and livelihoods of all Australian people?
Juran Wadsworth, Richmond Iraq war is once again the News of the front line
Republican nominee Jeb Bush defended the illegal invasion.
Know what we know now, will you authorize an invasion?
"I will," Bush replied . " He is very dissatisfied with the doubts of conservative columnists and most Republicans.
Perhaps Jeb should read his brother's memoir, the key points of decision, in which the former president called the war "a huge blow to our credibility-my credibility ", and added, "Every time I think about it, I feel sick. . . I still do".
Although more than 200,000 civilians and combatants have died since the invasion began in March 2003, I cannot recall that John Howard once expressed this frankness and sincerity.
Neil Hudson, KewBack and packSam de Brito ("immoral advantage", M, 10/5) are correct: australia's claim to Andrew Chen and miulan Sue in view of the fact that the Abbott government has long shattered our claim to the noble moral foundation of international law relative to Asian countries.
We are faced with a new reality: the abuse of "boat people" for the sake of domestic political interests has subverted the bargaining power of Australia's foreign policy.
In light of Scott Morrison's Knight "calculus of torture," where Tamil refugees are likely to be tortured and "missing" in authoritarian Sri Lanka, Julie Bishop asked Iran, with one of the highest death penalty rates in the world, how can we expect Indonesia to take our request seriously by taking back what has been brutally shaped as an "economic immigrant?
Unfortunately, Australia's days of praise and respect as one of the original sponsors of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights have long passed.
We came back with the package.
Jon Macmillan, the slow Mount Elizabeth is actually dangerous (letter, 10/5 ).
It is usually a sign of intoxication or incompetence, and the worst manifestation of it is those who deliberately or without knowledge hinder the progress of others.
The dangerous driving in Germany will be sentenced to three months' imprisonment.
Cannot turn left unless overtaking, which is a legal requirement on roads over 80 km/h, causing the vehicle to weave through others and/or to cause anger frustration due to delays (it takes two times to get to the tailgate ).
This also reduces the carrying capacity of the road.
Unless the calibration of the speedometer has been checked, you cannot say that you are "doing the speed limit ".
The reading of most speedometers is faster than the actual speed.
At a speed of 100 km/h, you may only need 90 km/h, so it is a mobile roadblock.
Also, when overtaking on an inseparable Highway, exceeding the speed limit is definitely safer than driving a kilometer on the wrong road ("overtaking without excuses", 10/5 ).
Over the past decade, I have noticed that more and more staff working in the memorial shrine have parked their cars on the lawn under the trees on the east side of the building.
This is a public park, though managed by the shrine trust.
Last week, as I was walking on the bronzed track, I counted more than 30 cars and noticed that many wheels were only a few centimeters from the bronze plaque, even covered the plaque-a bit disrespectful, I guess.
Recently, tan bark was scattered together to protect the roots of the trees and alleviate the problem of the wheel tearing the lawn when the vehicle was in and out.
How long before asphalt is laid in this area?
For the enjoyment of all, there should be no cars in these green public spaces.
