The event will be accompanied by an exhibition with examples of sustainable and green projects in the global production organization of Mercedes-Benz Cars. A key element of this change is the conversion of production micro-grids from an alternating current (AC) to a direct current (DC) architecture—“Industrial Smart DC Grids”.

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. Additionally, switching to cleaner energy sources further reduces the environmental impact of generating electricity.

That’s according to 2023 IEEE President Saifur Rahman , who was among the speakers from engineering organizations at the COP27 event held in Egypt in November. He also said low-cost, low-carbon hydrogen fuel should be considered as part of the renewable energy mix.
