Nowadays, electric cars have not yet been universally popularized, and a mysterious solar car has emerged. It claims to be able to travel continuously for several months without recharging.
According to Lightyear (a Dutch company that develops solar electric vehicles), new cars can operate efficiently on cloudy days or at night. Even if buyers live in long-term sunlight, the car will last for several months. There is no need to charge, but of course if you live in a limited environment, then you still need to charge.
According to foreign media reports, Dutch solar car manufacturer Lightyear recently completed the company's Series A round of financing. After completing the financing, Lightyear will accelerate the development of solar cars.
At present, most vehicles on the market still use traditional energy sources. Although countries around the world are now starting to develop new energy sources, in the strict sense, most of the electricity is not converted from renewable energy sources. In light of this background, Lightyear hopes to accelerate the development of automobiles in the direction of sustainable energy through financing.
Lightyear inspires a self-charging electric car to use direct solar charging.
In order to better build this Lightyear electric vehicle, the company invested in many technologies. The most important of these is to create laminated solar cells, which are protected from sun and rain damage. This kind of equipment usually needs to be placed on curved surfaces, but the technical barriers are still relatively large.
