Chapter 1846 The plan to choke the world(2/2)
Xiao Qiang signaled and asked the crew to open one of the containers, take out the packaging, and open it. Yankovic saw it and exclaimed: "Solar panels!"
The solar panel in front of me is exactly one meter square and consists of dozens of small solar single crystals.
He has heard of solar energy sliders. Each square is at least hundreds of dollars, and the ground current can be generated by only tens of watts. According to Xiao Qiang's plan, he wanted to build a secret base, including laboratories and production lines. The power consumption is at least hundreds or thousands of kilowatts. The solar panels needed are more than tens of thousands of square meters?
The investment fee is too high, so he is a little dizzy!
One thing he guessed was right. There were a total of billions of bungalows here. But there was one thing he guessed too much. So many solar panels. The money spent by Xiao Qiang was Wei Zi Qiwei.
When Xiao Qiang was in the Middle East, he kept watching the United States infiltrates the Middle East.
From the time when the US-Soviet battle, to now the United States uses Iraq to extend its tentacles, to put it bluntly, one is because of the geographical location here, and the other is for the oil in the Middle East!
Energy has been the driving force that has changed human lifestyle since ancient times.
Because of fire, people can abandon stone swords, stone axes, smelter metals, and bronzes. With coal, people can make high-quality subways and steel. With oil, people can make aircraft, ships and cars with excellent performance.
Therefore, all industrial countries in the world are salivating about the oil in the Middle East.
However, Xiao Qiang did not agree with this.
In his memory of his previous life, it seemed that land oil had been mined and people were marching towards the ocean. Due to the revolutionary breakthrough in solar energy utilization, people abandoned the costly offshore oil mining and instead produced solar equipment.
At this era, he was a little depressed when he saw everyone fighting for oil - what a backward era!
But he was also delighted to find that humans have not missed the study of solar energy.
No wonder. The potential of solar energy is too huge
The sun's rays. The light energy that reaches the ground is ten thousand times more than the proven energy reserves on the earth in one year! It is conceivable that the huge value it contains!
Compared with any other energy source, solar energy is the cleanest and will not cause any environmental pollution. And in the imaginable future, it is not a concern that it will run out!
The research on solar cells actually originates from people's discovery of semi-body search.
People have found that some semiconductor materials are sensitive to light. When sunlight is exposed to it, the electrons inside them will jump, resulting in potential differences and form direct current.
This discovery stimulates people's confidence in the utilization of solar energy.
Although many achievements have been achieved in the subsequent research, it is still far away to replace existing energy. Gradually, solar energy utilization has reached a low point.
But in the 1970s, after the Middle East began to use oil weapons, countries around the world were suddenly awakened.
Europe, the United States, Japan, and my country have begun to vigorously develop solar energy utilization and will only be supported by the government as a long-term development plan.
Xiao Qiang knew that after the current solar energy research progress of various countries, he determined his determination to occupy this market place.
He found two reasons to support him in victory, so that he could have enough confidence to make other countries feel at a disadvantage!
The first is the efficiency of solar energy utilization.
Now, the best laboratory products in various countries can reach a utilization rate of 19 to 20%. But this refers to laboratory products. If commercialized (mass production), the average utilization rate can only reach a pitiful 12%!
Such a low utilization rate. The current generated by one square is only thirty to forty watts! It cannot meet the basic requirements of ordinary families at all!
Now the most efficient use is a solar cell technology specially used for space equipment such as satellites, called multi-junction light gathering technology. Its solar energy utilization rate has reached about 30% in the laboratory!
More importantly, it is the light it uses to concentrate. It is to focus the sun's light with a lens to generate stronger light.
Based on foreign information, Xiao Qiang knew that a laboratory in the United States now once produced a solar energy sheet that gathered 500 times the sunlight. Its ground current is one thousand times that of ordinary solar cells!
Unfortunately, such a powerful solar panel costs one hundred times that of ordinary solar cells.
More critically, it can only be prepared in a small amount in the laboratory and cannot achieve industrialization!
However, this is exactly Xiao Qiang’s strength!
What he cares about is never the complexity of the process, but the volume. The more difficult it is to prepare, the higher the unit cost, the more Xiao Qiang will be able to play!
The second reason for winning is the volume required for solar panels.
The mainstream single-crystal solar panels are actually the same as semiconductors, but they only require extremely high purity.
Due to cutting technology, the thickness of each solar sheet is 300 to 400 microns (0.3 to 0.4 plus millimeters). And every slice is cut, there will be losses, usually reaching 40 to 60%!
The loss is extremely objective!
From this we can see why the production price of solar energy sheets has remained high.
But Xiao Qiang didn't care. He even asked the laboratory to polish the solar panels with special processes until the optimal thickness of light energy conversion: fifty microns!
What is really about being as thin as a cicada’s wing!
In this way, he also brought his strengths to the extreme - every day, he could reorganize 20,000 square meters of solar panels!
Every solar panel he reorganized was not those commercial products, but high-quality products made in the laboratory! It was limited to domestic technology and only achieved the highest utilization rate of 17%.
But even so, it's very impressive.
The solar flake recombined by Xiao Qiang is wrapped with tempered glass on the outside. After the substrate is added, the current generated by each square can reach an extremely efficient 65 watts!
In other words, the current that the solar panels he can produce in a day reaches 1,300 kilowatts!
Such a large current output occupies only one hundred times two hundred square meters of area. He only needs to install these solar panels on the roof to solve the power consumption of the entire base.
If it weren't for the difficulty of building a power station in Africa, he wouldn't have taken out the solar cells so quickly. Forget it, just treat it as an experiment, and it's better to accumulate some experience.
Besides, even if solar cells are developed, I will make them practical. Are those old energy giants willing to withdraw? The future competition will probably be unexpectedly fierce!
Xiao Qiang put this ominous idea behind his mind, and this battle will surely come.
But now I can’t be anxious and need to be low-key. When the foundation is not stable, I will definitely become the target of public criticism!
Now we must first manage our African base well and consolidate our country.
He was not prepared to start a war with the other party in advance unless he had to. This battle was different from the previous small fights. This was the real life-and-death battle!
Therefore, he became more and more cautious and did not dare to step up the lightning!
Xiao Qiang must wait until he has accumulated enough strength before he suddenly explodes. He can completely use lightning speed to completely slap the other party! He has instructed Qin Yunjing to specially draw personnel to set up a solar cell research institute to study more efficient batteries. If he mastered the multi-junction light concentration technology, then with the help of his supernatural powers, even if solar manufacturers around the world unite, they will not be his opponent!
At that time, he can carry high-efficiency solar energy to sweep across the entire solar energy research field, defeat the other party and occupy the market. At the same time, he can also invest the money he has found in Universal's research, killing the number of money!
Xiao Qiang couldn't help but look lustful when he thought of this.
As expected, if you master energy, you will master the lifeblood of the world! Even if you forget about oil, it is meaningless to intervene in this kind of sunset industry. But I have to settle for solar energy!
