Following South Korea’s Samsung Electronics (Samsung Electronics), LG (LG) in 2009 Q1 to launch solar-powered cell phone, the Sharp (Sharp) has recently launched a solar-powered cell phone is expected to begin selling in August, and the launch of Panama, Digicel Group, the solar-powered cell phone recently announced that it would sell in a specific area in June, 2009,solar-powered cell phone frequency test water temperature, the cell phone market so refreshing, solar industry forecast, to be more efficient after the advent of thin-film solar cells, solar energy is expected to the popularity of mobile phones, to subvert the entire mobile phone market.
South Korea’s Samsung and LG in February 2009 in the “World Congress mobile communications”, respectively, the introduction of the blue Earth (Blue Earth) and the CEO friendly solar-powered cell phone, so fresh and new cell phone market, which are 2 solar-powered cell phone battery in the back of the installation of mobile phone solar panels, using the sun to charge, charge for 10 minutes in general can call three minutes, not very suitable for emergency back-up battery and outdoor without the use of electricity to support the charge.
Over the same period, the mainland and the Caribbean ZTE transnational operator Digicel Group R & D cooperation, also launched a solar-powered cell phone Coral-200-Solar, has announced a formal sales in June, mainly exported to Latin America, China and the United States and the South Pacific island , including Papua New Guinea , Tonga, Vanuatu, Haiti, Samoa and other 10 countries, phone 1 hour in the sunlight, you can call a 15-minute full recharge takes about eight hours, the phone is priced at 40 U.S. dollars, is known as parity of the first solar-powered cell phone, is expected to be 10 in this country’s telecommunications market share of 25%.
Sharp Japan has also launched a solar-powered cell phone Waterproof SOLAR HYBRID SoftBank 936SH , sunlight for 10 minutes,you can stand two hours or call 1 minute, but remaining above 75% of electricity will not be able to charge, plans to market in August.
Solar industry said that the frequency of mobile phone operators to launch solar-powered cell phone market to test the responsiveness, and at the same time to shape a new image of environmentally friendly,happy to see various applications of solar energy market quickly surfaced client.
It is understood that these solar-powered cell phone most of the solar panels of solar cells using crystalline silicon, so when in charge of the amount of sunlight and the perspective of the requirements was also relatively high.
The amount of sunlight and require relatively low angle of the thin-film solar energy, because the conversion efficiency is still not universal and is subject to the limited surface area of cell phone batteries, charging efficiency after installation better than crystalline silicon, it has not yet been widely adopted However, mobile phone batteries made of thin-film solar is bright as long as the place where you can recharge, therefore, forecast the future have the chance to become the field of solar-powered cell phone battery of the new mainstream, only to be re-conversion efficiency of its upgrade, it is bound to become a popular trend, it will be a thin-film solar Great potential for business opportunities.
Solar industry said that apart from the NB and the introduction of 11 mobile phones of the application of solar photovoltaic panels, the recently published TOYOTA Japan PRIUS 3rd generation, skylights are installed in the location of solar panels, the main feature is that when a car parked in烈阳under, the car by the fan and start power generation by solar energy so that the temperature inside the car can be an appropriate temperature not too high.
