Breakthrough, Durable Stop-Start System May Be Available Soon
2013-06-24 20:45:57| AutomotiveDigest.com - Automotive Industry News
As the chart (to the right) from Johnson Controls shows, stop-start technology has taken off big time in Europe and is growing in the US and China. Automakers are pushing it forward, with other high-tech features like regenerative braking, as adding higher fuel efficiency for it internal-combustion engine vehicles. There are still some concerns about it including how long the car will be durable going through so many ignition startups. One UK-company thinks it can break through the barrier and has done a year of testing to prove it. Controlled Power Technologies says its SpeedStart belt-integrated starter-generator system for 1.2 million restarts highest so far in auto industry. EPA has been skeptical about stop-start systems when making mileage ratings. Most of the current stop-start systems built into cars on roads can typically handle between 150,000 to 300,000 stop-starts, as mandated by OEMs. Stop-starts extra longevity is due to heavier-duty components.

KONE's High-Rise Elevator System Called Breakthrough Technology
2013-06-12 23:36:16| ENR.com: Headline News
?Elevator and design consultants are lauding a new elevator system from KONE Corp. that drastically reduces the weight of the hoisting cablesthe bane of tall-building experts. The patented system, which replaces heavy steel ropes with lightweight carbon-fiber belts, increases the maximum feasible "nonstop" vertical run to one kilometer from about 600 meters. The system also significantly reduces elevator energy use, claims KONE, which is the world's second-largest elevator-escalator maker.

U.S.-China climate deal called "breakthrough" but no long-term cuts yet
2013-06-11 23:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: China and the United States took a major step in the fight against climate change over the weekend, but what was termed a "breakthrough" might not do much in the longer term to lock in legally binding carbon emission cuts from the world's two biggest emitters of greenhouse gases. Still, environmental groups and some U.S. and global policymakers said the agreement could give fresh momentum to the United Nations' arduous process of finalizing a global treaty to replace the Kyoto Protocol on climate...
