Solar PV module with a reflector attached in front of a E-car

The concept of driving a car with zero harmful emissions, one that is very quiet and is very low maintenance, and does not need an expensive fuel source has been the ideal of many inventors for a long time.

Solar electricity of PV cells on the new invented Solar E-car is primary channeled to and used by the electric motor/s of the car if it is running. When the car is not running the current is used to charge a battery pack. On-Roof Solar PV Modules Solextra TM was created to develop a true solar charging system for HV and EV that provides increased electric driving range and improved fuel economy. An improved efficiency of solar PV modules is achieved by mirror reflectors attached.

As a rule, the more efficient solar cells are also more expensive. Solar powered racing cars can travel more than sixty miles per hour but they have to be covered all over with these solar cells. The cost of one of these cars can be well into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. The best solutions to increase energy yield of the expensive solar cells achieved by relative low cost upgrade includes mirrors that direct additional light to the cell surface.

Video shows a new concept how to boos power output of Solar PV modules by mirrored reflectors. An additional option is sun tracking of the complete system ?PV modules-reflectors?
