Improved energy storage technologies will allow for expanded integration of renewable energy resources like wind and photovoltaic systems and will improve frequency regulation and peak energy management. This project will develop and implement an Energy Internet microgrid, located in a large mixed-use infill development site in Austin, Texas.

Cars That Think

DECEMBER 30, 2021

As power grids everywhere increasingly rely on intermittent renewable energy, batteries and other forms of energy storage that can even out the bumps in supply and demand are taking on a crucial role. While lithium isn’t exactly in short supply, extracting it from the ground exacts a huge environmental cost. Well, let's think.

EV Match

manufacturing (some of which overlaps with the EV-related aspects – more on that in a moment) appeared all but doomed earlier this summer. on a path to reducing emissions more than 40% below 2005 levels, per a Princeton University analysis of the measure’s impacts : expanded tax credits for EVs, batteries, solar panels and wind turbines.

Electric cars in the garages would double as battery packs for when energy supplies are scarce. Demand for energy, to heat our buildings in the winter and cool them in the summer, is highest at the very time when supply is also the greatest. Wind, solar and nuclear could easily change our electrical sources. The best part?

It was a Manufacturing Failure, as GM NEVER planned to build the car in Volume, so No Economies of Scale were ever achieved. If our country is going to spend money like a drunk sailor we should have spent it on building renewable energy power plants like Wind and Geothermal. WTF do they need ANOTHER $10.3B First iphone was $600.
