University of Calgary Study Finds Large-Scale Adoption of PHEVs in Alberta Could Support Wind Power; PHEV GHG Benefits Range from 40-90% in Emissions Reduction

Green Car Congress

JULY 28, 2009

The study found the environmental impacts of PHEVs in Alberta would depend on factors such as vehicle battery size, charging time and wind production levels. Of the installed capacity of just above 12,000 MW, approximately 49% (5,893 MW) is coal fired, 39% (4,686 MW) is gas-fired, 7% (869 MW) is hydro, and 4% (497 MW) is wind powered.

The technology is enabled as OnStar receives a signal from PJM Interconnection that shows the percentage of available renewable energy on the grid. OnStar uses this signal to simultaneously manage the charging of many Volts and to match the renewable energy availability. Wind accounted for 2.3%. was conventional hydropower.

Example: a regulated entity may purchase offsets generated through the development of a wind farm in a nation that has not established GHG emissions targets.

These include, from today, no investment in new fossil fuel supply projects, and no further final investment decisions for new unabated coal plants. The pathway calls for annual additions of solar PV to reach 630 GW by 2030, and those of wind power to reach 390 GW. Together, this is four times the record level set in 2020.

It offers the solution to several significant transitions we need: moving society from burning fossil fuels to substituting renewable resource fuels such as solar, wind and biofuels; and from using fossil materials as fuel to using them for other recyclable uses. Distributed Solar and Wind with the PHEV. It is much more than that.

We learned that lesson too well at the start of the pandemic, when demand for toilet paper, disinfecting wipes, masks, and ventilators outstripped the available supply. Spiking demand for electric heat collided with supply problems created by frozen natural-gas equipment and below-average wind-power production.

Energy experts have been warning that electricity is likely to get more expensive and less reliable unless renewable power that waxes and wanes under inconstant sunlight and wind is backed up by generators that can run whenever needed. Indeed, the concepts detailed so far all seem to stand on shaky technical ground.
