As the world grapples with the pressing issue of climate change, it is evident that we need swift action to avert its worst impacts. The upstream, “well to wheel” emissions of the EV are linked to electricity generation and the electrical grid, with lower emissions in regions that use more renewable energy sources.

Why not simply use the electricity directly to charge electric cars via the already available distribution network – the electricity grid? This process cannot be more efficient, cost effective or safer than the direct use of electricity from the grid (or the sun) to charge an EV. Whitehead, J., & Washington, S.

In the study he worked on, researcher examined four real-world uses of DeepMC—predictions of wind speed, solar radiation, soil moisture content, and temperature. In the case of temperature prediction, the researchers followed an actual farmer in Eastern Washington during early spring using DeepMC to time when he fertilized his crops.

Most automotive manufacturers say they plan to use renewable energy in the future, but for now, most battery production relies on electric grids largely powered by fossil fuels. And it produces almost all its electricity from hydro and solar. And that much more vehicle charging would then put great pressure on our electricity grids.

Wind, hydro, DC transmission lines, and smart grid electronics are also Portland strengths. If you charge with solar, is way less. The small electric will be king and batteries a valuable commodity, so valuable in fact, they will have to be wielded in to prevent theft by the Solar, Wind, Wave, Tidal, folks for their home installations!
