| Kyocera explains the solar roof for the Toyota Prius |
|
Kyoto/Esslingen, 30 September 2009 – Kyocera, one of the leading manufacturers in the solar sector, is exclusively equipping the new Toyota Prius with a solar roof. Toyota will also be presenting the optional equipment feature, which supplies the air-conditioning system of the hybrid vehicle with energy, at the IAA in Frankfurt. This system ventilates the interior of the car and regulates the temperature.

| Kyocera’s “green curtain” competes with the air-conditioning unit |
| Environment-friendly and cheap: Plant curtain saves energy |
|
| Kyoto / Neuss − The Japanese technology corporation Kyocera, a leading producer in the field of fine ceramic components, is fitting its company premises in Japan out with “green curtains”. Placed in front of the office windows, foliage plants climb up trellises until they are fully covered. Closely intertwined, the leaves form a green wall and thus protect the interiors against direct sunlight – preventing the offices from heating up too quickly. This lowers the load on the air-conditioning system, saves energy and thus protects the environment. Planted vegetables spice up the menus in the canteen.
