Meet The Beast D – an eBike with some of the features of an ATV, plus inbuilt solar panels for charging (albeit slowly). The two-wheel drive bike boasts 2 x 500W brushless DC motors and 60V 20AH lithium-ion energy storage good for 800 cycles. Solar goes to school: Power-generating panels cover cars at community college. Students attending the Community College of Baltimore County this fall have started parking with power. The two-year institution now has 16,500 solar panels covering more than Green initiatives are being pushed across the United States and locally Wegmans is installing solar panels on several area stores. Over 2,000 solar panels have been installed on the Wegmans headquarters for just over a year. We went there to find out how .
