A new next-generation folding portable solar panel called the Forty2 is looking to transform the lives of people in third-world locations and is currently seeking funding on the Kickstarter website.
Helping to bring power to those that need it to light their homes, power emergency medical stations, and sterilize drinking water, to name just a few. Watch the video after the jump to learn more about the Forty2 project and see it in action.
Revolutionizing Access to Clean Energy
“The Forty2 is an all-in-one unit that combines all the elements of a grid into one small package. It combines power generation (solar), power storage (Lithium Ion batteries), power inversion (power cord ready), and efficiency monitoring (brains) in one mobile unit. Truly a Utility In A Box.”
The Forty2 has been designed to be powerful enough to light up a small army of LED lights, charge several laptops, or a couple dozen cell phones. This makes it an ideal solution for remote areas where access to electricity is limited or non-existent. The portability and ease of use of the Forty2 mean that it can be deployed quickly in disaster-stricken areas, providing immediate relief and support.
Applications and Impact
The potential applications of the Forty2 are vast and varied. In rural communities, it can provide a reliable source of power for schools, enabling children to study after dark and access educational resources online. In healthcare, the Forty2 can power essential medical equipment, ensuring that clinics can operate effectively even in off-grid locations. Additionally, the ability to sterilize drinking water can significantly reduce the incidence of waterborne diseases, improving overall public health.
The Forty2 project is currently over on the Kickstarter website and needs your help to raise enough pledges to make the jump from concept to production. The team behind Forty2 is passionate about making a difference and believes that their innovative solar panel can play a crucial role in addressing energy poverty.
So if you think Forty2 is something you could benefit from, visit the Kickstarter website now to make a pledge and help the Forty2 solar panel become a reality. By supporting this project, you are not only investing in a cutting-edge technology but also contributing to a brighter and more sustainable future for communities around the world.
