Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in late February demonstrated a 20-kilowatt bi-directional wireless charging system installed on a UPS medium-duty, plug-in hybrid electric delivery truck. The technology takes energy from the grid and converts it to direct current (DC) voltage.

Through the sales network, these conversions will primarily target professional customers (commercial vehicles) dependent on access to the urban centre for the continuity of their activities. New operating opportunities such as stationary storage make it possible to perpetuate the service that the battery offers.

We found that converting biomass to electricity rather than ethanol makes the most sense for two policy-relevant issues, transportation and climate.” This is largely due to fact that the small SUV BEV has an electric motor that is 3.1 Elliott Campbell.

The fuel cell’s unique design includes an iron-based layer that stores electrical charge like a battery, enabling a faster response to changes in power demand. In addition to conventional fuel cell capabilities, Argonne’s cell could use natural gas to produce ethylene for conversion into liquid fuel or high-value chemicals.

Classification of potential electrical storage for stationary applications. For example, they note, to regulate frequency, the energy storage capacity may not need to be long-lasting—minutes can be sufficient—but it must have a long cycle life because the system is likely to encounter multiple daily discharge events.
