The development engineers are also investigating how the constant switching on and off of the batteries affects the power grid; the harmonics this generates could knock the grid out of sync. The long-term goal is to achieve up to 300 kW of charging capacity—enabling a quick recharge in roughly 6 minutes.

Most recently, Toyota announced that its fuel cell sedan would also be available in the UK, USA, Germany and Denmark during the summer of 2015. This renewable production capacity is increasingly important to ensure the existing power grid can accept more renewable sources. It’s time to debunk a number of myths.

Think Global managers want to develop the car plant and launch an engineering center, perhaps alongside. There are at least a half dozen different technologies to power cars with electricity under construction. I wonder how the hapless car buyers without the PhD’s in engineering are going to deal with all of this?

A key thing, he said, will be to recharge the batteries at an acceptable time for the electricity grid — to “make sure people aren’t charging at the very peak, peak time,” like late afternoon when the electricity grid is already weighted down by demands like air conditioning. “There’s a relationship of trust already.
