WHAT PROBLEM YOUR INNOVATION ADDRESS

How is the problem solved?

HOW THE PB IS SOLVED Our UK Green Channel patent pending invention is based on the concept of "controllable mirages". The invention has recently reached its first publication at the UK Patent Office Green Channel patent process for public inspection for more details.

What is the customer target?

Who are the potential customers? Affordable clean supply is essential for reducing carbon emissions. We believe our inventions have the potential to reduce equipment costs for corporate companies. Our target customers are therefore to establish a business partnership with corporate company to supply the most affordable clean energy. Another major target customer are also urban areas which are responsible for 70% of global emissions. This is because existing equipment are too large to fit on high rise buildings. Our optical solar collector has a low profile and can offer a solution.

How is this solution different?

What is the novel character of innovation? Our novel step is that our invention has the potential to provide 24/7 solar energy access. Existing solar equipment cannot operate at night when the sun is not available. In our research we find that the Earth itself can be an energy source to help overcome this problem. This is because the Earth first receives and absorbs large amounts of solar radiation during the day and it re-emits millions of gigawatts of infrared energy at night. Most of this untapped energy source is in tropical areas of Africa and South-East Asia which face major energy challenges particularly at night. The technology for harvesting this enormous energy source is currently unavailable. The other inventive step is that the heated air layers do not require heavy manufacturing, transportation, installations and maintenance to save costs of clean energy generation. Furthermore, the heated air layer do not collect dust and are almost ageless. Another major advantages of our invention licensing is not needed for infrared use in the atmosphere. This is because infrared is already a part of the atmospheric ecosystem and industries such astronomy are utilizing infrared methods in the atmosphere for generation. We believe this will enhance our product introduction in the market.
