Hannover Energy Fair 2010
  • Auriga Energy attended the Hannover Energy Fair 2010 with a Bristol City Council/BETS and UKTI delegation. We were honoured to be invited to present on hydrogen and fuel cells at the "Innovative and Competitive Renewable Energy Solutions to Meet Global Challenges” symposium organised by HannoverImpuls on 20th April. It was a highly successful event and visit which further cemented the collaboration between the twined cities of Hannover and Bristol
Cleantech Innovation Forum
  • Auriga Energy chaired two sessions at the highly successful Cleantech Innovation Forum at the Olympia Conference Centre, London, on 11 June 2009
Auriga Energy funding
  • Auriga Energy has secured funding support from a Department for Innovation, Universities & Skills (DIUS) grant for R&D administered by the South West of England Regional Development Agency (SWRDA) to enable the company to achieve a major milestone, the demonstration of an integrated hydrogen fuel cell system for marine, urban transport and light industrial applications. Jas Singh, the managing director of Auriga Energy, commented: “this is a great boost to help us achieve our business targets in response to the growing market demand for zero-carbon products”
UnKnown Aerospace collaboration agreement
  • Auriga Energy Ltd and UnKnown Aerospace sign collaboration agreement to progress green energy powerplant

Photovoltaic or solar cells use the photovoltaic effect to convert photons in the form of sunlight into direct current electricity, used in combined arrays to power everyday objects such as calculators to communications on marine vessels and circuits on satellites.

First conceived of by Alexandre-Edmond Bacquerel in the 1830s and actually produced in the 1880's by Charles Fritts, they were only produced for practical applications to power satellites at the beginning of the current space age.

Solar cells utilize the properties of semi conductors, diodes and more recently quantum dots in the form of nanocrystals to produce electricity during the day which can be used or stored in batteries for use later on.

The primary advantages of solar cells over other forms of energy are their ability to be used in areas that traditional power station electricity cannot reach and their reputation as a key sustainable energy supply. Their initial development has been boosted by the space industry to advance the technology towards commercial terrestrial applications.
