During our drive to DC we frequently had to leave our dog in the car and I had to leave notes indicating that the Tesla had remote climate control, least overzealous animal lovers bust the windows. Even if I forgot, the Tesla automatically prevents the interior from reaching dangerous temperatures. Tesla got this and announced Dog Mode which displays the interior temperature on the car’s large LCD. Last year some fool backed into my Model S and did not leave a note (please look for a yellow car with a dent at USC). I sent Tesla a suggestion that it would be cool if the car’s camera(s) could record alarm events and Tesla just released that feature as Sentry Mode! That’s how a car should work and all cars will, because Tesla is driving the feature set for the entire industry.

LOS GATOS, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Tigo Energy, Inc., pioneer of the smart modular Flex MLPE, today announced the new Underwriter Laboratories (UL) certification of its TS4 Platform Rapid Shutdown Systems (RSS) with SolaX Power, a leader in the development, production and distribution of solar inverters and battery storage. The eight SolaX inverters listed below were successfully certified with Tigo’s RSS solutions: TS4-F (Fire Safety), TS4-O (Optimization), and TS4-L (Long Strings). Tigo is currently compatible and available with SolaX and more tier one certified inverter manufacturing partners throughout the U.S. Contact Tigo about more RSS information for integrated or retrofitted PV installations.

Shortly before it rocked the PV world, statistics from China showed that at 9.65 GW, Q1 installations were up significantly on 2016 and 2017, which saw new capacities of 7.14 and 7.2 GW, respectively. Confirming predictions that installs would veer away from utility-scale, which until now had been the dominant sector, the quarter saw a massive increase in DG: 1.97 GW versus 7.68 GW. In percentage terms, this represented an overall increase of 22% YoY, while utility saw a 64% decrease, and DG a massive 217% increase.

In shopping for my first electric, I had tested the Ford Fusion EV and found the acceleration so poor that pulling into LA traffic would have been scary. The sales person said “electric cars just don’t go fast.” No wonder Tesla ate their electric lunch. I also looked at the Nissan Leaf, but the alien design aesthetic of that car left me cold. Why must “green” vehicles go out of their way to look bizarre? Even the BMW i3 looks like a lunar ground car from an old sci-fi movie. Ruining the best thing the Volt had going, GM has bestowed their all-electric Bolt with the insipid “I’m doing penance for the environment” look of a Prius. Only Tesla has bothered to offer consumers the obvious: an attractive electric car that flies like a rocket.

Besides, the report also covers segment data, including: type segment, product segment. This report also covers different industries client’s information, which is very important for the manufacturers.

The Dakar rally, which is currently underway in Peru, 6th to 17th January 2019, is known and respected as one of the most challenging and toughest events in motorsport. Often the routes take in mountainous and rocky terrains combined with extreme heat and dry conditions in very remote locations. As such, all the crews require access to remote power, which has traditionally been supplied by diesel generator sets.
