פיתוחים בתעשיית האנרגיה המתחדשת עם גל שופרוני :
חברת טראלייט מדווחת הבוקר (א’) כי זכתה בקול קורא של לשכת המדען הראשי במשרד האנרגיה במסגרת ועדת שיפוט משותפת של משרד האנרגיה ומשרד החקלאות להקים פרויקטי דו-שימוש באנרגיות מתחדשות בשטחים חקלאיים (אגרו-וולטאי) עבור 4 מתקנים בארץ בהספק כולל של כ-2.52 מגה וואט.
במסגרת המחקרים, קבוצת טראלייט תקים 4 מתקנים לייצור אנרגיה מתחדשת ותפעילם. במסגרת הפרויקטים, תבחן הדו-שימושיות בשטח החקלאי למטרות גידול של גידולים חקלאיים שונים ולשימוש של הפקת אנרגיה סולארית פוטו-וולטאית. המחקרים יערכו ביחס למספר גידולים, יפרסו באזורים גיאוגרפים אקלימיים שונים ברחבי הארץ וילוו על ידי חוקרים בעלי שם בעולם החקלאות.
חברת האנרגיה טראלייט +0.55% שהחלה להיסחר בשנה שעברה, זכתה בקול קורא של לשכת המדען הראשי במשרד האנרגיה (במסגרת ועדת שיפוט משותפת של משרד האנרגיה ומשרד החקלאות) להקים פרויקטי דו-שימוש באנרגיות מתחדשות בשטחים חקלאיים (אגרו-וולטאי) עבור 4 מתקנים בארץ בהספק כולל של כ-2.52 מגה וואט. לפי ההערכות בשוק, מדובר בהיקף כספי של מיליון שקל לשנה.
במסגרת המחקרים, יעשה שילוב של טכנולוגיות ייחודיות להגדלת תפוקת היבול ויצירת מיקרו-אקלים אופטימלי עבורם, וכן שילוב של אמצעי מדידה ובקרה מדויקים. המחקרים יבחנו את שטח הכיסוי האופטימלי של פאנלים סולריים בהיבט השפעת הפאנל על מרכיבי היבול ועל איכות הפרי, ואת ההשפעה ההדדית (צמח -פאנל) כדוגמת צינון טמפרטורת הסביבה של הפאנלים ובכך הגדלת תפוקת ייצור החשמל שלהם. כמו כן, תיבחן השפעת המתקן הסולארי על כמות המים העומדת לרשות הגידול, כדי למצוא דרכים לנצל את המתקן הסולארי לטובת שיפור כמויות המים שיעמדו לרשות הצמח, אף בהשוואה למצב בו אין מתקן סולארי מעליו.
גל שופרוני, סמנכ”ל פיתוח עסקי ורגולציה של טראלייט ציין: “השמירה על האיזון בין צרכי החקלאות של מדינת ישראל מחד והעמידה ביעדי האנרגיות המתחדשות של המדינה מנגד, הביאה אותנו לקדמת הטכנולוגיה הסולארית וממצבת את ישראל כמובילה מחקרית בתחום שהולך ותופס תאוצה בכל רחבי העולם. עם הידע שטראלייט תרכוש בישראל, בין היתר באמצעות סדרת המחקרים האלו, בכוונתנו לפתח פעילות ייחודית בחו”ל”: גל שופרוני
בחודש שעבר, טראלייט זכתה בקול קורא של משרד האנרגיה ולשכת המדען הראשי, להקמת פרויקט מיקרו-גריד ראשון מסוגו בקריית ביאליק, במסגרתו החברה תקים קירוי סולארי על גבי מגרש חניה, בשילוב עמדות טעינה לרכבים חשמליים ומתקן אגירה. הפרויקט, אשר זוכה לתמיכה בהיקף של 1.3 מיליון שקל, יכלול בשלב הראשון 500 קילו-וואט סולארי, 10 עמדות טעינה לרכבים חשמלים ואגירה בקיבולת של 2.3 מגה וואט שעה. בשלב הבא, ככל שהביקוש לעמדות הטעינה יגדל, צפוי שהפרויקט יתרחב.
רני ליפשיץ, מנכ”ל טראלייט: “אנו גאים לקחת חלק במחקר חשוב זה, תוך שאנו מזהים את המצוקה ההולכת וגדלה בה מצוי ענף החקלאות בארץ וסבורים כי פרויקטים אלו ייצרו ביטחון וודאות כאשר ייצור החשמל יאזן את תפוקת היבול ויניב פירות לכל הצדדים. אנו מעריכים כי תוצאות המחקרים יסייעו בהרחבת פעילות טראלייט בתחום הדו-שימוש, זאת בהתאם לאסטרטגיה שהתווינו. לצד פרויקטי הדגל של החברה הכוללים שני מתקנים סולאריים מהגדולים בארץ בהספק משותף של כ-600 מגה וואט, טראלייט רואה בפרויקטי דו-שימוש חשיבות רבה, על רקע השטחים המצומצמים בארץ והצורך בשימוש במשאבים קיימים כרבי תכלית”
כמו כן, גם חברת פריים אנרג’י +3% הודיעה כי ועדת השיפוט המשותפת של משרדי האנרגיה והחקלאות החליטה לקבל את בקשתה במסגרת פנייה להגשת תכניות מקדימות לדו-שימוש באנרגיות מתחדשות בשטחים חקלאיים (אגרו-וולטאי) עבור 12 מתקני חלוץ שהוגשו על-ידי אגרילייט, שמוחזקת על ידה ב-7.5%. להערכת החברה, מתקני החלוץ צפויים לייצר הכנסה של כ-5.5 מיליון שקל בשנה (וסך כולל של כ-126 מיליון שקל למשך 23 שנים).

Excellent auto MOT checks Reading: Your tyres should be properly inflated (check your vehicle handbook for the correct tyre pressures or use our tyre pressure checker) and have at least 1.6mm of tread around the whole tyre. A good way to check your tread depth is the 20p test. Any unusual wear could highlight a problem so bring your car down to your nearest carservice-centre.co.uk centre or a free tyre check. Tyre problems are the biggest cause of all MOT failures so it is especially important to check these in advance! Read even more info on Cheap Car Servicing Near Me.
Cars are becoming ever more sophisticated. Unfortunately, this also means that there are more electronic components that could fail. Have you ever taken your car to a garage with a warning light on, only to find they can’t locate the problem? We use the latest diagnostic equipment to find the fault, and then we repair it. From ABS and airbag sensors, to engine management lights and air conditioning, we’re here to help you.
The air you breathe inside your car is important, which is why experts recommend you change the air filter every 12 months or 12,000 miles. Changing the air filter is something you can get done when you take your car for an oil change or a routine check. However, if you’re skilled with cars, you can change it yourself. A typical air filter costs about $10, and it takes 10 minutes to change.
Once a car is three years old (four years in Northern Ireland) it must be tested each year to check it meets road safety and environmental standards. This Ministry of Transport test is commonly known as an ‘MOT’. MOT tests are carried out at authorised test centres around the country, all of which display an official blue sign featuring three white triangles. The windscreen; Any cracks and chips will be examined alongside visibility for the driver.
First, if your vehicle fails the test and repairs need to be made this will take longer. A test centre is not allowed to let you drive away a car that has failed an MOT until the problems are fixed, unless your existing MOT certificate is still valid, or you’re taking the car to have the faults fixed. Second, the test might take an hour or less, but, even if there aren’t any repairs, this does not mean your vehicle will only have to be at the garage for sixty minutes. Test centres can require you to drop your vehicle off first thing in the morning and collect it when ready.
Check belts and hoses: A broken belt or a leaky hose can stop you in your tracks. For example, a snapped serpentine belt can cause several systems to fail, including your air conditioner compressor and power steering, according to Consumer Reports. Plus, they also point out that if your radiator hose is damaged or leaking, your car can quickly overheat, resulting in significant damage. To avoid any problems, you, or your mechanic, should check your hoses and belts during every oil change. Also, it’s easy to pop your hood occasionally to see if there are any overly worn belts, or cracked, broken or hardened hoses. As Bob Vila points out, if you hear any squealing or wailing noises when your car is running, a belt or hose may be going bad. Consult your mechanic and owner’s manual on how and when to replace any belts or hoses.

Not only is it important to have a cooling system inside the car, but it’s also necessary to reduce the amount of heat entering your car from outside. A great way to do that is by applying a layer of ceramic car coating. This type of coating bonds with the paint, providing lasting protection to both the exterior and interior of your car. Ceramic car coating protects your car from absorbing the heat and the associated radiations like harmful ultraviolet rays. It also helps you ensure that overheating is not causing cracks in the paint of your car. Besides, ceramic car coating can prevent stains from bird droppings settling on your car’s surface, as well as from minor scratches. And if all these reasons aren’t good enough, here’s the jackpot – it can help your car look as good as new!

This not only ensures the best results and reliability, but will also comply with any warranty the car may be under, Also make sure you retain all the bills and service receipts that bear the above details. Whoever you entrust your car with, make sure they are careful workers. If they pay attention to the little details, you’ll know your car is in good hands.

Take care of tire pressure: The tire pressure of the car not only affects the mileage, but it is also the cause of accidents at times. Always check the tire pressure whenever you have to take the car somewhere. These days the feature of tire pressure monitoring has also started coming in many modern vehicles. Tire air can also be checked and filled for free at many petrol pumps.
If you use a regular garage or test centre, they may keep a record of your MoT due date, and can send out MoT reminders if necessary. However most people have a rough idea of their vehicle’s MoT expiry date, as it’s become such an intrinsic part of car ownership. The most recent major change to the way MoTs work came in May 2018, when a new fault grading system was introduced. Faults are now categorised as Minor, Major and Dangerous – with the latter two equating to an automatic test fail. Cars with Minor faults will pass the test, but their MoT certificates will clearly show that the car passed the test “with defects”, urging owners to effect a “repair as soon as possible”.
Ignore the myth of the 100,000-mile tune-up. “It doesn’t exist,” states Principe. “Each vehicle has a specific tune-up schedule recommended by the manufacturer. The more you keep the systems clean, the better the vehicle will run.” Variations in climate and driving style also dictate the necessity for maintenance. Commuting in dusty desert conditions will quickly clog air filters, while driving short distances repeatedly can wear out the exhaust system, as moisture is never completely evacuated. Extremely hot and cold conditions require more attention paid to radiator fluid and engine oil.
in Reading by Carservice-Centre? During a service the technician will carry out a health check of your vehicle, which will include checking the condition of the brakes, suspension, tyres and other crucial parts. That will ensure they are in working order, identify any potential problems and allow the technician to recommend how to fix problems before they get too serious. Finally, it’s also the perfect opportunity to mention any annoying issues you’ve noticed. The technician will be able to investigate and possibly fix them while the car is up on a ramp. The cost of a service depends on numerous factors, including whether you’ve booked a full or interim check-up, where you choose to have your car checked and, in some cases, where in the UK you live.
High quality auto MOT inspection in Reading: A pre-MOT checklist should cover the following areas: Your lights need to all be in good working order. This includes your headlights, sidelights, indicators, and brake lights as well as your number plate light. You may need to get a friend or family member to assist you when checking the brake lights, or back your car up to a wall and check them via reflections. Things such as unsecured light mounts can also be cause for MOT failure. So be sure to check whether there are any wobbly lights on your car. Discover extra details on Mot Near Me.

If your radiator builds up deposits, it can mess with the cooling system in your car. To keep the radiator in top shape, a radiator flush will do the trick. How often you need to replace the radiator fluid will depend on your vehicle. Start by consulting the owner’s manual to get an idea. For the most part, you can get away with flushing the radiator every couple of years. Now that you know about these basic car repairs, you can keep your car in top shape for many years to come. Remember to rotate your tires, change the oil, replace the brake pads, and more.
How much does an MOT cost? The Vehicle and Operator Services Agency sets the maximum fee official test centres can charge for an MOT. It’s currently £54.85 for cars and motor caravans and £29.65 for motorbikes, but many garages charge less than this – sometimes up to 50% less. The windscreen; Any cracks and chips will be examined alongside visibility for the driver.
The handbrake: check the tension in your handbrake. If it slides up and down without resistance and can’t be ratcheted to a set level, there’s likely to be a problem needing fixing by a professional mechanic. Seats and seatbelts: check the driver’s seat adjusts forwards and backwards and inspect the full length of the seatbelt for any damage. Check all the seatbelts latch and fasten securely, and lock when you give them a sharp tug. Windscreen: any damage wider than 10mm in the driver’s central view will cause an MOT fail, as will any damage larger than 40mm in the whole of the swept area.
Change the oil: Routinely checking and changing your car’s oil is essential to keeping its engine in running condition. Check your oil each month and change it as directed in the car’s owner’s manual. You can change your oil yourself or take it to a service center. If you choose to do it yourself, learn the necessary steps to drain the fluid, set the correct oil level and dispose of old oil. You should also know which type of motor oil is best for your car, regardless of whether you change the oil yourself or take it to a service center. This generally means considering three things — the oil viscosity, whether to use synthetic versus non-synthetic oil and your car’s mileage.

You may just be referred to them by someone you know and trust. SO go ahead, but just make sure they do a good job on your car.

Clean the engine : Use clean fuel to make the engine clean and strong from inside. From time to time it should also be cleaned externally. Leakage along with dust and debris can damage the engine so use any engine cleaner to wipe off the dirt.
Any tyre that doesn’t have at least 1.6mm of tread across the middle three-quarters is an instant MoT failure. Tyres with significant damage such as cuts, bulges or cracking will cost you a pass certificate too. All your vehicle’s lights must be clean and work correctly, or you will fail the MoT. So before you book it in, check they do. That means headlamps on full and dipped beam, sidelamps and daytime running lights, hazard lights and indicators, fog lamps if fitted, and even number plate lights at the back. You can pick up most bulbs from car accessory stores, and they’re usually easy to fit – if sometimes a little fiddly.
Is the technician trained on your specific vehicle make? Cars and trucks today are extremely complex machines, and their unique characteristics vary heavily from brand to brand. Making certain that your technician has obtained the proper training for your specific vehicle is crucial since special tools and procedures — many of which are not easily available to the “average” auto mechanic — are required to correctly service your auto.
Berkshire from carservice-centre.co.uk? When you come to sell the car, having a full service history will make it more appealing and boost its second-hand value, and if your car is written off, an insurer is likely to pay out more for a car with a full service history. Don’t forget to take your car’s service booklet (often found in the same pouch as the handbook) to the garage or dealership, so they can stamp and date when the service was carried out. A growing number of cars come with no service record or handbook, but the servicing agent should be able to log into the car maker’s online portal and add in information about the service that has been done.

They’re 100 feet tall horse heads! Seems obvious but this has to be the number one reason. There is nothing quite like this on the planet. Although you can see these from the roadside off the M9, I don’t think anything can prepare you with just how BIG these heads really are. Even when I was walking from the car park, they kept growing in size, and eventually, when you reach them – you’ll crane your neck to see them fully! They’re almost unbelievable, to be honest, and overwhelming to take in. That’s what I think is so amazing about it. As these statues are also seen as a monumental engineering feat. It really makes you appreciate the time and effort that it took to piece these statues together in the time frame of only 90 days!
In addition to the wheel, the Falkirk Wheel complex also includes a range of other attractions and activities, including walking and cycling trails, a children’s play area, and a picnic area. The visitor center also offers a range of educational exhibits and displays that explain the history and technology behind the wheel. Overall, the Falkirk Wheel is a unique and impressive attraction that is well worth a visit for anyone interested in engineering, history, or simply enjoying a fun and memorable day out in Scotland. The Trossachs is ‘Rob Roy Country’ where the famous outlaw hid from his pursuers in the dense forests. The area was much loved by Scottish writer and poet Sir Walter Scott whose famous poem ‘The Lady of the Lake’ was inspired by Loch Katrine, which you can cruise on the steamship SS Sir Walter Scott.
At Falkirk the two canals were linked together by a ladder of 11 locks that allowed boats on the Forth and Clyde Canal to climb the 35m to the level of the Union Canal. These canals eventually went the way of most of Britain’s canals, and the lines of both were cut by road building and housing development following their closure in 1965. The late 1990s saw a resurgence of interest in the use of canals for leisure, which heightened further when developers began to realise how the presence of a canal could greatly enhance the desirability of an area as somewhere to live and work. And so was born the idea of the “Millennium Link”, the complete refurbishment of the Forth and Clyde Canal and the Union Canal. Just about every bridge and lock on the network needed major work, and stretches of canal had been filled in during the construction of 1960s housing estates in both Glasgow and Edinburgh and had to be dug again. And in one place the M8 motorway had to be raised to provide clearance not thought necessary when it had been built over the disused Union Canal.
If you want to experience the Falkirk Wheel in action, you can take a boat tour that includes a ride on the wheel itself. These tours start at £18 for adults and £13 for children and offer a unique and memorable way to see the wheel in action. Many visitors to Scotland consider the Falkirk Wheel to be a must-see attraction. It is the only rotating boat lift in the world, an engineering marvel that allows boats to move between two canals at different heights. The wheel itself is a fascinating sight to see in action, with its 35-meter height and smooth, seamless rotation. See more details on https://www.cherrytreepark.co.uk/.
Parents will warn their children of the Kelpies as a way to keep them from going near rivers and lochs. Some believe that the Kelpies lure you into the water and some even blame them for any drownings that happen. They can also use their powers to summon floods. As they can shape-shift into human form, they can appear as beautiful men and women. Mothers will use the Kelpies to warn their daughters of men that lead them astray. To capture a Kelpie and banish the spirit, you need to use a halter stamped with the sign of a cross.
Vehicle MOT verification Reading, UK near me: Listen out for any excessive noise or rattling when your vehicle is running. This may suggest a problem with the exhaust system, which could result in a failed MOT. Another easy check is to see whether there’s smoke coming from the exhaust. This is normal on startup for diesel engines, but excessive smoke may indicate a problem. Similarly, if there’s fuel or oil leaking from the exhaust, there’s likely a problem further up the line – possibly with the spark plugs or glow plugs not warming/burning fuel properly.

Although the lights might not seem like a big issue for car owners, it’s important to have these function properly for safety. Make sure you take the time every few months to inspect the lights of your car. This is one of the easiest and cheapest car maintenance tips you can do yourself. While your car is parked, test all of the lights such as tail lights, brake lights, headlights, and turn signals. Ensuring all the lights work properly on your car will ensure your safety and save you from getting a ticket.
The corner of the car should quickly return to its original position. If it bounces more than twice, this could mean the shock absorbers are faulty and need to be checked. Horn: give a short blast of the horn – if it doesn’t work or isn’t loud enough to attract the attention of pedestrians or other motorists, get it repaired. An MOT test is a legal requirement once your car reaches 3 years of age. An MOT test must be undertaken by a DVSA certified MOT test centre. The DVSA guidelines specify what will be tested on your vehicle – these include your cars identification, bodywork of your car, the interior of your car and your car’s engine.
Headlights and indicators: front, rear, headlights (main beam and dipped), hazard lights and indicators. If any aren’t working, first check for broken bulbs and replace them. Brake lights: ask another person to check the rear brake lights come on when you press the brake pedal. Tyres: check all the tyres have at least the minimum legal tread depth of 1.6mm, or they’ll be marked as an MOT ‘fail’. This can easily be done with a 20p coin – see the diagram on the Tyre Safe website. Check for any damage such as splits in the tread, bulges or cuts in the sidewalls. Also check the tyre pressure is correct – the car’s manual will list the right pressure and they might also be on the sidewall of the tyre itself – and increase it at a petrol station if necessary.
Keeping your car’s belts and hoses in good shape can help keep your car running and may help you avoid a breakdown on the road. For example, if your serpentine belt breaks while you’re driving, it may cause many of your car’s systems to fail. Having your belts and hoses checked at every oil change will help ensure that they’re in good condition and don’t need replacing. Review your car insurance: Just like regular car checkups, it’s a good idea to review your car insurance policy from time to time. This can help ensure your policy’s coverages, limits and deductibles are up-to-date and suitable for your current situation.

Check vehicle fluids. Vehicles rely on transmission fluid, brake fluid, power steering fluid and properly mixed coolant to run. Fluids need to be topped off for optimal vehicle performance throughout the life of the vehicle. Change air filters regularly.

New noises or changes in the drivability of a vehicle should be checked out promptly.

Three years after a car is first registered here in the UK, it is subject to an MoT test to ensure it is still safe to drive on the road. This isn’t a negotiable thing, it is required by law and following the first MoT, the test must be carried out once a year. MoT itself stands for ‘Ministry of Transport’, which was a Government department originally formed in the 1960s. Since then, the Ministry has seen various names, but is known today as the Department for Transport or DfT. That being said, the actual regulation of the tests is carried out by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA), which is also part of the DfT.
