The Audi e-gas plant, which can convert 6MW of input power, utilizes renewable electricity for electrolysis to produce oxygen and hydrogen. The waste heat given off during methanation is used as process energy in the adjacent biogas plant, significantly increasing overall efficiency. Earlier post.).

25% less energy and water consumption, waste and emissions. The solar installation at Volkswagen Chattanooga confirms the awarding of the LEED Platinum certification to VW by the US Green Building Council in late 2011. Ten SMA inverters and 5 transformers (rated at 1500 KVA each) convert the 9.58 The Chattanooga Solar Park.

We now have a sprinkling of promising companies working to get funded to convert gas-guzzlers. When our country was attacked at Pearl Harbor, no one believed we could build 30,000 planes and tanks in just one year. It helps that the auto industry will be building more efficient new vehicles. And no one asked what it would cost.

The US Department of Energy (DOE) announced more than $30 million in federal funding, matched by more than $35 million in private sector funds, for 68 projects that will accelerate the commercialization of promising energy technologies—ranging from clean energy and advanced manufacturing, to building efficiency and next-generation materials.

A deployment of this scale would generate up to 625 million gallons (~15 million barrels) of ethanol or 375 million gallons (~9 million barrels) of diesel per year, while consuming about 4 million tonnes of industrial waste CO 2 annually in the process. —Paul Snaith, President and CEO of Joule.

These efforts include fuel testing and validation, lifecycle analysis and support for Joule’s production facility in Hobbs, New Mexico, where demonstration-scale production of ethanol is underway. This will lead to the longer-term build-out of a 1,000-acre plant to begin in 2017.

This makes it possible for the waste heat from the electrical drive components to be made available to the interior of the Q7 e-tron quattro. Under a venture with the motto “From Road to Grid”, Audi is therefore currently working on a concept to convert old batteries into stationary energy stores.

The crankshaft-driven oil pump matches the oil supply to the engine load, changing its capacity based on the engine’s demand for oil—eliminating energy wasted to pump oil that is not required for proper engine operation. GM’s engine facility in Toluca, Mexico will also build the 1.4L, as well as the Ecotec 1.5L.

To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish. It is wasteful and destructive to be burning this versatile molecule; we must stop. We imagine you objecting: “Oh no, we’ll have to build lots more power plants!” As will be discussed later, only the PHEV is equipped to make use of this excess electric grid capacity.
