BioLite Stove
BioLite stoves are wood-burning devices that use technology to maximize energy consumption and minimize emissions and the amount of wood burned.
Using patent-pending thermoelectric fan technology, BioLite achieves 95 percent smoke reduction and is also capable of delivering a small amount of electricity. Intended for use in rural areas, BioLite can affordably provide health benefits, efficiency, and energy to charge devices like cell phones.
TRIAC freeway commuter
Designed as a freeway commuter, Green Vehicle's TRIAC electric vehicle gets 100 miles per charge and is capable of achieving a top speed of 80 miles per hour.
In addition to using technologies that increased the vehicle's range and power, Green Vehicles says it has also reduced production costs. The TRIAC retails for $25,000.
