A vehicle-to-grid (V2G) project between the University of Delaware and NRG Energy has begun selling power to PJM Interconnection for the power grid. We knew that by doing so would attract innovation and would find potential for energy storage or other technologies. Earlier post.).

Short-term transients, including those related to wind and solar sources, present challenges to the electrical grid. Stationary energy storage systems that can operate for many cycles, at high power, with high round-trip energy efficiency, and at low cost are required. —Wessells et al. —Colin Wessells.

The e-gas project consists of two main components: Audi is contributing to the construction of offshore North Sea wind turbines which will generate clean power,that is then fed into the public power grid. Audi wants to use green power to produce and also operate its electric-drive e-tron models in the future.

It occurred in the wake of the California electricity crisis of 2000 and 2001, when mismanaged deregulation, market manipulation, and environmental catastrophe combined to unhinge the power grid. Once electricity is generated and passes into the grid, it is typically used almost immediately.

The converted vans will run on electricity only and will charge directly from the power grid. The first conversion vehicle is slated for road testing in early summer 2011. Energy storage will be provided by a lithium-ion battery pack sized to provide a driving range of roughly 80 miles.
