No pedals and not a motorcycle, maybe it is a scooter or pocket bike. On sunny days I can charge using solar pannels and sunshine.

Thekpv gained momentum in the summer of 2008 by Terry Hope. After approximately a thousand hours of e-bike research and development his DIY micro mobility electric vehicle concept materialized with four goals:

Engineer a electrical circuit with an mechanical system to capture, store and harvest electrical power.

Use alternative energy for a prototype electro-solar hybrid.

Eliminate extra greenhouse gas emissions and lower the carbon footprint by recharging the battery pack off-the-grid.

Construct a vehicle with a solar pannels & small enough foot print to be stowed away inside a Samsonite suitcase for easy transport.

AFTC Alternative Fuel Technologies Inc.

Alternative Fuel Technologies, Inc. designs, develops, prototype manufactures and sells eco-friendly fuel systems for the global transportation industry. The Company’s automotive prototypes are designed for diesel-powered engines that use a new alternative fuel, dimethyl ether (DME). DME is an ultra-clean, multi-purpose fuel that can be manufactured at low cost from abundant resources, including renewable materials (biomass, waste and agricultural products) and costs about 50% less than fossil fuels.

Since 2005, AFTC has demonstrated success in building DME fuel system prototypes for major auto makers, Volvo and the Ford Motor Company of Europe. In addition, AFTC has relationships with the U.S. Army and the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER). The Company anticipates to begin full-scale production on its revolutionary, alternative fuel systems in 2011.

GreeNYC Ad

Mayor Mike Bloomberg unveiled GreeNYC – the consumer outreach portion of PlaNYC – at a press conference on June 25, 2007 at City Hall. This GreeNYC ad is one of three that will play on local TV stations starting this week, spreading the word about the 10 easy steps everyone can take to reduce energy usage and pollution. The 10 stops are: 1)Change your light bulbs to CFLs, 2) Buy ENERGY STAR appliances, 3) Don’t air condition an empty room, 4) Unplug chargers and appliances when not in use, 5) Switch to green power through your energy provider, 6) Walk or take public transportation, 7) Recycle your glass, metal, paper and plastic, 8) Bring your own cloth bag to the grocery store, 9) Use green cleaning products, and 10) Switch to paperless bank statements and online bill paying.
