Who is Andre Broessel?
German architect Andre Broessel designed a spherical solar power generator. Rawlemon wants the Spherical Sun Power Generator to revolutionize solar power. Broessel was a finalist in the 2013 World Technology Network Award with the balloon design.
He has 27 years of experience in management, design and technology. The main target of it is complex technology.
Andre has an updated version for 2016. Andre thinks outside the box. He is something of a maverick when he sees the future of solar energy.
The future is in the hands of Sbotic Ltd
Sbotic was established in 2014. They are tasked with marketing Rawlemon’s spherical solar generator. Sbotic ltd. acquired the patents for the ”SixCities” power generation module and the ”MicroTrack” system from Rawlemon.
The company was located in London, England in 2014. Sbotic Ltd. (Sun Robotics) is a division of Ramlemon Company.
Sbotic ltd is pushing the limits of solar energy conversion. They are proving that net zero energy buildings could be a standard tomorrow. Sun Robotics’ mission is to integrate the solar generator into the city environment. This would include buildings and houses.
Spherical Solar Power Generator
Andrea Broessel and Rawlemon have created a prototype of a spherical solar power generator. The generator is called a Beta ray. Its technology is a combination of spherical geometry and dual-axis tracking system. This allows twice the output of a conventional solar panel spherical solar power generator. The solar panel of the generator is small compared to a normal panel.
The sphere is fully rotatable and can be placed on walls, buildings and any space with direct sunlight. According to Broessel, it can be placed in an electric car charging station.
You might think that the spherical generator is from some science fiction movie. You would be wrong.
Exposed beta ray parts
- Silicon cell area reduced to 25%
- Increased efficiency to 57%. The solar panel is at 22 to 24%,
- Ultra transmission ball lens point focus concentrator.
- During the night hours, the spherical ball can illuminate an area with a few LEDs.
- The modular collector system charges and stores energy during the day.
- You can collect energy from the moon. That’s right, the moon.
- How does it work. Sunlight is collected through the ultra transmission ball lens focus concentrator.
- Concentrated sunlight is stored in solar cells.
- It is then shipped to the generator for use in homes or commercial buildings.
Different tasks for solar power generator
The Beta Ray was designed for off-grid conditions and a supplement to the electrical needs of buildings. The idea is also to provide thermal circuits such as hot water.
The spherical solar power generator can be used as an architectural wonder. Beta ray has the ability to track the sun all day. Solar panels do not track.
6 different tasks of the solar generator
- provide electricity
- produce thermal output
- Solar generator has transparency
- capable of shading
- building ventilation
- The spherical generator is a work of art.
1 to 5 above will transform the future of zero energy buildings.
The generator will provide electricity for buildings and homes with 4 times the efficiency of the typical 22% solar panel currently on the market.
The solar generator will produce thermal production which in turn heats the water.
The spherical ball is transparent and the hybrid collector will increase the efficiency of smaller solar panels.
Solar generator for use with solar umbrellas for shade.
The generator will produce ventilation for buildings.
Rawlemon solar devices coming soon
Under the Rawlemon umbrella, there is now a new division called Indiegogo. They are introducing the world’s first building-integrated concentrated solar power (BICSP) technology. This product will be on sale in December.
Introducing the Beta.ey 80LIM for $119.00. This will be the first spherical solar power generator combined with a concentrating solar charger and a moonlight beam in a single design. Beta.ey will be able to charge iPhones, iPads and many other devices.
The Beta.ey concept is in line with the mega prototype designed by German architect Andre Broessel. The prototype took three years to form into a device that will be in the hands of consumers by Christmas.
Rawlemon has a large spherical lens that doesn’t move. The solar charger moves around the back of the dial. It will follow concentrated sunlight passing through to the other side. A typical solar panel must be manually moved to follow the sunlight. In other words, this is much more efficient at capturing sunlight and ultimately producing more electricity.
Looks cool too!
See how Beta.ey works
Beta-ey requires a solar panel 1% the size of standard solar generators. This device works well during cloudy days. It has the ability to attract diffuse light. This spherical solar generator will be used for mobile devices.
The number one cool factor! There are built-in LEDs to light up the globe.
The large-scale Beta-ey will be able to charge electric cars. It will also be available for windows and building walls for electrical and thermal needs.
large-scale beta-ray
Large-scale beta rays are for outdoors. It will be priced at $6,000. It’s just money. Right? At this time, there is no spherical solar data generator that I can find for the return on investment. Rawlemon seeks to integrate the beta ray system into the design of future European architecture.
The directive of the European Commission is to design nearly zero energy buildings. The design process will start in 2019. Rawlemon is in line with the European Commission directive.
Could we see Beta-ray on a large scale in the United States? It will be interesting to see what form of solar energy the world will use in 10 to 20 years.
final thoughts
The spherical solar generator catches my attention for several reasons.
- The design concept is out of this crazy smart world.
- Solar panels are 4 times more efficient due to dual axis tracking and clear ball lens.
- Versatility of solar generator for buildings and charging of electric cars.
- Attractive architectural design.
- Future applications of communities to generate electricity.
Andrea Broessel and Rawlemon have made great strides towards solar independence. They have achieved a viable solar design in less than 6 years. Time will tell if large-scale Beta-ray is profitable.
The Beta-ey small-scale solar generator should be a hit with consumers who need to recharge mobile devices. Some competitive solar generators cost $400 to $800. You could charge larger devices like a small TV, laptop, or lights in an RV. That’s 4 to 8 times more than Beta-ey. Something to think about.
It will be interesting to see how this plays out in the near future. I think beta-ey and beta-ray on a large scale have a reasonable chance of succeeding.
