Thereby, we completely forego coal-based electricity and obtain our electrical energy from only renewable sources. In the future, 100% of additional purchased electricity will come from verifiable renewable sources, such as wind- and hydropower. The decision also fits with our overall strategy. The plant will start operating in 2019.

As energy is increasingly fed in from fluctuating, renewable energy sources such as wind farms or solar power stations, high-capacity battery storages are the key to stabilising power networks. The lifecycle of a plug-in or electric vehicle battery does not end after the vehicle’s operating life.

Electricity generation from variable renewable electricity sources (VRE) such as wind and solar power has grown rapidly and is expected to continue to do so. However, the distributed, non-synchronous, and weather-dependent nature of the resources causes specific challenges when integrating them into power systems. Source: neon.
