NREL modeling power requirements for regional air mobility

Green Car Congress

The project includes evaluating how smaller airports could supply clean power to both the aircraft and the region. How that happens exactly—whether from on-site renewables or grid supplied—is a site-by-site discussion. Even smaller airports might take on a larger role, using on-site renewable energy.

DOE report highlights opportunities of hybrid energy systems

Green Car Congress

These opportunities could drive the production of valuable fuels, chemicals, and products, provide greater cost savings, increase grid flexibility, and enhance environmental performance across a range of DOE-funded technologies. They can vary in terms of their subcomponents, linkages (e.g., customer-sited or utility-scale).
