The Audi e-gas plant in the city of Werlte in Lower Saxony ( earlier post ) produces CO 2 neutral-fuel (synthetic methane from water, renewable electricity and CO 2 ); it now also contributes toward stabilizing the public power grid. This therefore considerably increases the overall efficiency of the Power-to-Gas/biogas plant.

The major driver for the project is the need to decarbonize the electrical grid, protect it from cybersecurity attacks and make it more resilient. We will be replicating the entire California power grid on one campus. The goal is to make the testbed available to outside research teams and industry by 2025.

and Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) on a new pilot project that will allow communication between electric vehicles (EVs) and the power grid. This project will demonstrate and test an electric vehicle’s ability to receive and respond to charge instructions based on the grid condition and the vehicle’s battery state.

Already existing highly efficient gas CHP systems additionally generate local heat and power at the factories. New plants in Germany and Europe are planned with a CO 2 -neutral energy supply from the start: Already, the entire electricity demand of the smart plant in Hambach (France) is obtained from renewable energy sources.

This is necessary because power generation from renewable energies depends on availability of sun and wind and can therefore only be controlled to a limited extent. With this business model, we can help stabilize the grid and expand the use of sustainably-generated electricity. Joachim Kolling, head of BMW Energy Services.

Another study found that if people choose to charge their EVs during times when there’s less demand on the power grid, we could cut emissions by another 18% – and maybe even allow EVs to support the grid. They can be charged using clean energy, reducing their environmental impact.
