We are transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, and the use of energy storage is becoming more widespread. And with the popularity of electric vehicles, the grid is under more and more pressure, so the demand for energy storage is growing. So what exactly is energy storage? Mechanical storage.

Vehicle to Grid is a really interesting area to do projects. The idea here is that you can connect your EV to the power grid and flow power from your EV to the Grid. An electric car acts as a load or micro-generating station for the grid. Advantages of V2G in grid perspective 2. The topic is great.

Scientist have confirmed that unlike gasoline cars, plug-ins will get cleaner as they get older -- because our power grid is getting cleaner. They reinforce the Pacific National Labs January 2007 findings that we wont have to build new power plants for cars that charge at night. Thats 20-25 cents a gallon.

Electric School Buses in the US are a hot conversation. As with most EVs, the cost of operating a gas-powered vehicle is simply higher than that of operating an electric one. Also, the majority of these vehicles sit unused during the summer when electricity demands are often the highest and take the greatest toll on the power grid.
