Wind-to-Hydrogen Tech Goes to Sea

Cars That Think

Wind and solar parks produce a large portion of their energy. Then, as now, wind farms are operating off the world’s coasts—but not all of these offshore sites are connected to the mainland via underwater power cables. Some of the wind farms instead sit in clusters more than 100 kilometers out at sea.

DOE announces $11.5M in Phase 1 funding for carbon capture and storage program; ARPA-E FLECCS

Green Car Congress

FLECCS project teams will work to develop carbon capture and storage (CCS) processes that better enable technologies, such as natural gas power generators, to be responsive to grid conditions in a high variable renewable energy (VRE) penetration environment. The team’s approach uses a novel and low-cost heat-pump thermal storage system.

Self-Generation Nation – Solar Sales Soar Amid Escalating Energy Costs

My Energi

In 2021 alone, wholesale costs soared by upwards of 250%. Key factors behind this hike included a cold summer, meaning less gas was stored for winter use; fewer pipelines were delivered than predicted; and energy generation across Europe was far lower than in previous years. In result?
