… follow San José’s example and do ATN with renewable energy

• Ensure that the ATN system is built … utilizing renewable energy

• … maximize energy efficiency and potentially be powered in whole or part by renewable energy.

• … and calculating carbon emissions reductions achievable through renewable energy

• evaluate cost/benefits of using renewable energy to offset all or a portion of the energy requirements

• Provide analysis of cost/savings and recommend specifications to execute energy-efficiency and renewable energy strategies…

Capacity can be increased with state of the art control systems

1. CAPACITY 2. COST

A very low cost vehicle-carried controller

is needed

~500% improvement over the state of the art control

is needed

ATN systems use off line stations to get better use of the tracks

How can we deliver on the solar skyways challenge?

2 seconds apart @ 90 km/hr = 50 m

Solar Race Car averages 90 km/hr with 6 m2 solar panel

… Podcars have 50 m ÷ 3 m = 17 X more collection area than solar race cars!
