IPG to demo Flameless Ceramic Turbine for clean, off-grid power in EV charging

Green Car Congress

Intelligent Power Generation (IPG) will demonstrate the impact of Flameless Ceramic Turbine technology in UK electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, following a £1-million contract from Highways England. Not only can IPG’s technology deliver low-emission, pollutant-free energy on today’s cleaner fuels.

CMU study finds controlled EV charging can reduce generation cost, but at greater health and environmental costs depending upon the generation mix

Green Car Congress

Results from the study also suggest that with sufficient coal plant retirement and sufficient wind power, controlled charging could result in positive net benefits instead of negative. SO 2 from power plants is a particular concern, as SO 2 is a precursor of particulate matter. Electric vehicle charging may affect these trends.

Proposed California Bill SB-233 Mandates Bidirectional Charging for EVs to Advance Grid and Climate Protection

Driivz

The bill, SB-233 , aims to advance grid resilience and protect the climate by using EVs as “batteries on wheels,” tapping their stored energy to balance electricity supply and demand rather than bringing high-polluting peak generators online. SB-233 covers school buses as well so they can power V2B and fleet depots use cases.

Zero-Carbon Drive to Sacto Anti-Carbon Rally and Back

Plugs and Cars

What's most interesting, however, is how easy (and cheap) it is to do a carbon emission-free 200 mile day in a 100 mile range electric vehicle, my 5 year old Toyota RAV4 EV. We chose the solar-powered Park n Ride just off 80. And I was there representing Plug In America. Because plug-in cars actually get cleaner over time.
