Solar power has to be a long term investment to make an individual better off. Solar cells or panels are small productive and reliable today, they are not reasonably priced only. And what’s more, installation of a fully assembled solar cell complex will cost the same as the gears price and will take you intolerably long to finally set it to work for you. This is exactly why we have PICNIC Green Challenge and similar concourses giving money prices to people or enterprises that have figured out one or two environmental problems. Verdana Solar was one to get 100,000 Euros for its easy to install hence cheap solar panel. It is not yet on the market, but we hope the price will help to unleash it before summer.

There were many interesting improvements to tire design to make them more durable and resistant to damage, like "run while flat" feature. Although they were safer than usual, they just couldn't offer good protection from explosives or shrapnel. Military engineers were thinking how to make a tire that would be protected from shrapnel and even explosives, and they found a solution - tires without air at all!
