Air Force Uses Solar Powered Shipping Container for Portable Renewable Energy
In an attempt to take the lead in the military race to go green, the U.S. Air Force unveiled their Basic Expeditionary Airfield Resources (BEAR) program this week that will use shipping containers designed by Lockheed Martin that double as solar powered generators. These lightweight portable units will supply power for mobile bases and create temporary shelters for troops in the field.
Lockheed Martin's $3.5 million contract with the U.S. Air Force will incorporate the solar containers with the existing Integrated Smart-BEAR Power System (ISBPS) grid that has been developed by the Air Force over the last 50 years. The solar powered containers could reduce fossil fuel consumption by up to 25 percent, and will solve logistics problems involving available power for operations in remote locations.
Once the solar powered containers are delivered by aircraft, the ISBPS system can either hook them together to create solar energy generation stations or have them function independently. The director at Lockheed Martin's Intelligent Microgrid Solutions, Gil Metzger, said “our transportable intelligent power system will integrate renewable and conventional power, a challenging task in deployed environments. This important capability will increase safety and add new mission-extending capability for our troops."

Спасибо за ссылку! Теперь не буду париться с подарком на НГ!
Много хороших моделек есть, понравились Versace красненький и Луи Витон. Жаль его в наличии нет, так бы сразу купила...
ТС, Посмотрел ваш магазин
Цены порадовали. Не удержался, заказал Tag Heuer Meridiist Brown.
через полчаса уже позвонил менеджер, сказал курьер приедет через пару дней. Посмотрим, отпишу как привезет.
The United States Air Force leads the way again. With the newest State Of The Art Hawaii Air Guard's F-22 Solar Powered Hangar and Maintenance Building Facility that will enable an incredible platform in Hawaii for the USAF and are Air Guard to be and stay the best in the World. This will Help ensure that we will always be able to protect our Nation's skies and the Pacific Ocean and beyond. July Friday 22,2011 F-22 Solar Powered Facility Project. Solar Energy is not new to the USAF although this is just the start to many more projects using Solar Energy Technology with the USAF.
United We Will Always Stand In God we Trust

Great News From the Pentagon Clean Fuel Energy From the Sun July 19, 2011
In Hawaii The Department of Defense will start to cover its Military
Family Housing with Solar Energy. This will greatly help stop the need
for Oil in the Hawaii Islands. This is just the start to the D.O.D.
reducing its 4 billion dollar need for Dirty Energy. From now on the
D.O.D. will look to Renewable Energy, Clean Energy. The Hawaiian
Islands will see the Largest Solar covered homes and housing Roofs in
the World 6,000 units. Thanks to William Lynn Deputy Secretary of the Defense and
Steven Chu Secretary of Energy and to many others. The D.O.D.
has some 300,000 building the day will come when all will be powered by
Clean Energy. i can not thank all that made this happen enough.
GOD Bless
United We Stand In GOD We Will Always Trust
