ICSC staff showcase the latest models of the TekPak, a portable solar power generator, at the Manila Mini Maker Faire 2019 at the Mind Museum on June 22. The maker faire will be held until 6 PM of June 23. The TekPak is a sustainable and renewable solution to communications, lighting, medical, and other energy needs. TekPak 4 was designed by ICSC, Frederick Espitola of Solar Pilipinas, and Haiyan survivors. TekPak 5a and 5b were designed by ICSC, RE-Serve volunteers, Solar Scholars and Haiyan survivors, with support from Tuklas Innovation Labs. The units were assembled by Tacloban City Solar Scholars. The TekPak is the key component in the Solar Scholars training program of RE Charge Pilipinas. The program trains residents from disaster-prone and survivor communities to assess their energy needs and to utilize and maintain renewable energy systems, including the TekPak, during emergency and peacetime situations. RE-Charge Pilipinas, a post-Haiyan initiative of the Institute for Climate and Sustainable Cities, has reached seven provinces and continues to work with organizations and communities from all over the Philippines.

I've planned to build my own solar heating panels and was intrigued by how this one is built. Here, you can see a layer of insulation in the back, and then in front of that is a sheet of copper that has copper pipe stretched across it from side to side. And this copper is painted black to absorb heat. And then there's a layer of air with glass over it to trap the heat.

I couldn't resist it when I saw it at the airport: a solar-powered gadget charger. Dunno how useful it will be in the cloudy Netherlands, but it's geeky, it's eco-friendly, it's sleek: how could I not buy it? ;)
