First ever around the world solar powered flight

29/7/2016

0 Comments

 
On 26 July Bertrand Piccard and Andre Borschberg completed their final leg of the 43,000km around the world journey in a plane powered solely by solar energy. The Swiss-made monoplane operate from takeoff to landing using just the energy captured by the 17,000 cells on its 72m wide wings.

Piccard and Borschberg took turns in each of the 17 stages of the trip which began and ended in Abu Dhabi (UAE). In total, the  project has broken 19 aviation records for solo and long distance flights. The longest leg of the trip took the team almost 9,000km from Nagoya, Japan to Hawaii, US lasting 4 days, 21 hours and 21 minutes.

​Despite being more than 150 million kilometres away, the Sun beams on average 1400 Watts of energy per m2 on Earth. As solar cell efficiency is improved year on year, plans to use solar-powered drones in the telecommunication industry has become an increasingly attractive market prospect.

​
Bertrand Piccard spoke to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon live from the Solar Impulse 2 cockpit hours before landing: “Solar Impulse has flown more than 40,000 kilometres without fuel, but with an inexhaustible supply of energy and inspiration.”

Our biggest air con job yet - it's big.

27/7/2016

0 Comments

 
For the past six weeks, we have had the honour of installing complete air conditioning systems to a series of brand new offices based right here on the Chaucer Business Park in Polegate. A global company who employ over 300 staff are moving into the new premises and they nominated us to be the installers.

A total of twenty ceiling cassette style air conditioning systems have been installed and we are currently in the final stages of adding all the piping and exterior fans. We intend to complete by the middle of August ready for the company to start operation from the new offices on the 1st September 2016.

It is our biggest air conditioning job to date and so we decided to document some of the progress. See below for a short slideshow of some work in progress photos. Check back at the beginning of September for a finished look.

No sun? No problem for this Solar Panel farm

15/7/2016

0 Comments

 
A California firm is converting sunlight to heat and storing it in molten salt so it can supply electricity when the wind is calm or the sun isn’t shining.

Deep in the Nevada desert, halfway between Las Vegas and Reno, a lone white tower stands 195 meters tall, gleaming like a beacon. It is surrounded by more than 10,000 billboard-size mirrors focusing the sun’s rays on its tip. The Crescent Dunes solar panel planet looks like some advanced communication device for distant life form; but the facility’s innovation lies in the fact that it can store electricity and make it available on demand any time, day or night.

​Crescent Dunes, the flagship project of Santa Monica–based firm SolarReserve, has achieved what engineers and proponents of renewable energy
 have struggled with for decades: providing cheap, commercial-scale, non–fossil fuel electricity even when winds are calm or the sun is not shining. The facility is touted as being the first solar power plant that can store more than 10 hours of electricity, which translates into 1,100 megawatt-hours, enough to power 75,000 homes.

The benefits of having air conditioning installed to your home

12/7/2016

0 Comments

 
The benefits of having air conditioning installed to your home goes far beyond just cooling the home. An air conditioning unit also purifies the air by reducing dust, bacteria and pollen which really helps benefit those who suffer from asthma and hayfever. Another great thing with air conditioning systems that is not that well known is that they don't just cool an area, but they can also heat and dehumidify; making an air conditioning system an all year round handy system.

We're exhibiting at Let's Do Business Hastings in September

6/7/2016

0 Comments

 
After a great day and much success at Let's Do Business Eastbourne, we are happy to announce that we will also be exhibiting at Let's Do Business Hastings on the 29th September 2016.

It is already shaping up to be a great event with 55 exhibitors already booked to have stands. We will be at Stand 51 for the duration of the day.

We have a couple of great surprises for the day so be sure to pop down and head for the CDS Electrical stand. We held a 'guess the number of grommets in the jar' game at Let's Do Business Eastbourne and it proved to be really popular. The winner won afternoon tea for two at the Grand Hotel in Eastbourne. Nothing quite beats a clotted cream and rich strawberry jam scone does it?

Let's Do Business Eastbourne 2016 - A great success

1/7/2016

0 Comments

 
We had a great time at Let's Do Business yesterday and had the wonderful opportunity of meeting so many of you, including Declan Curry the guest speaker for the event and Stephen Lloyd our previous MP.

Our giveaway proved to be very popular. We had a total of 81 entries. No-one guessed the correct amount but we did have someone who was very close. ​

​The jar contained 453 grommets of varying size. Debbie Ward-Guy gave a cracking guess of 456 and was indeed the closest. Congratulations Debbie; we will be in touch shortly to award you the prize.

We look forward to participating and exhibiting at future events like this in the future. In the meantime, if you would like to get in contact with us please call us on 01323 734162 or drop us an e-mail to info@cdselectrical.co.uk.
