The Automotive Sector Is Already Investing In The Second Generation Of Solar-Powered Electric Vehicles. The News Is That The Models Will Begin To Be Produced By A Dutch Company And Were Presented At CES 2023, The World’s Largest Technology Fair Held In Las Vegas From January 5 To 8, And It Is The Concept Version Of The Lightyear 2. The Development Of The First Generation Involved An Investment Of € 81 Million.

And the prices are more accessible than one might think, considering the range of 800km, not a bad price of € 40,000 for the powerful vehicle. The first models of this new generation are expected to arrive in 2025, but those who wish to order the vehicle can do so now, as Lightyear has already provided a waiting list.

Beyond the issue of range, the second generation of solar-powered electric vehicles also brings cleaner energy for the entire chain. And there is a 50% reduction in carbon emissions, that is, a much more sustainable driving experience. Without compromising practicality, drivers will be able to prioritize sustainability, using solar power efficiently, and thus, the already overloaded electric grids can be spared.

The Lightyear 0

Those waiting for the first generation say that it will only be necessary to charge the car after months of use. It took six years of research to achieve the design that ensured optimal performance. The model is a sedan inspired by Porsche’s Panamera, and this version comes with a higher price. Converted into reais, those who want a ”toy” like this will have to invest over R$ 1 million. The vehicle weighs only 1,575 kg, quite light, as its body is entirely made of carbon fiber, and it is expected that the car will reach a maximum speed of 110 km/h.

The Lightyear 0

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Owner of the largest pig farm on the planet, the Chinese company Muyuan Foods sent executives to Mato Grosso to study pig production in Brazil, as a step by China to get closer to the source of feed and ensure food security, although the investment has not yet been confirmed.

Archaeologists discovered in Pompeii the remains of a man who faced the eruption of Vesuvius holding a bowl on his head as a shield, a lamp to light the way, and ten bronze coins to restart life, in a find that confirms the account written by Pliny the Younger almost 2,000 years ago.

At 16 years old and without money to buy equipment, a student from the Sertão of Paraíba built his first telescope with two margarine buckets and a wall mirror, and today he brings space observations to schools and squares in the region with increasingly powerful devices.
