Monash study on solar-driven electrolysis for green hydrogen production cautions on life-cycle emissions and EROI

Green Car Congress

of hydrogen is currently produced via water electrolysis and only a fraction of this production is powered by renewable energy. Taking IRENA’s REmap scenario as a reference, renewable hydrogen could deliver 5% of total final energy demand in 2050. According to the IEA, less than 0.1% solar generation exceeding electrolyzer capacity).

ANSI releases for public comment draft roadmap of standards and codes for EVs at scale

Green Car Congress

The roadmap’s primary focus is on light duty, on-road plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) that are recharged via a connection to the electrical grid, as well as the supporting charging infrastructure needed to power them. Topics covered include standards to address high power DC charging; storage (i.e.,

LCA study finds connected and automated vehicle subsystems could enable net reduction in vehicle energy use and GHGs by up to 9%

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the University of Michigan and Ford Motor Company have found that using a Level 4 connected and automated vehicle (CAV) subsystem could increase vehicle primary energy use and GHG emissions by 3–20% due to increases in power consumption, weight, drag, and data transmission. —Gawron et al.

Next-Gen Chips Will Be Powered From Below

Cars That Think

Had these chips kept on the trajectory they were following in the early 2000s, they would soon have packed about 6,400 watts onto each square centimeter—the power flux on the surface of the sun. that bad because engineers worked to hold down chip power consumption. Things never got. Your typical refrigerator draws only 6 A.
