Geely Group and CRI intend to collaborate on the deployment of renewable methanol fuel production technology in China and explore the development and deployment of 100% methanol-fueled vehicles in China, Iceland and other countries. Currently the company has a 4,000 metric ton/year production capacity. Click to enlarge.

Then, as now, wind farms are operating off the world’s coasts—but not all of these offshore sites are connected to the mainland via underwater power cables. They are highly automated production islands that directly convert wind energy to hydrogen, with a few of them processing the gas into fuels and other goods.

The two organizations said that such cuts “ threaten to disrupt commercialization of a family of technologies that are showing exceptional promise and beginning to gain market traction.” Hydrogen also advances the Obama Administration’s goals of greener power generation and a smarter power grid.

It’s very similar to the infrastructure for electric cars because the idea, ultimately, for electric cars is that you also are revamping your grid to facilitate, whatchamacallit, intermittent renewable energy sources, like wind and solar, because having an electric car that runs off a coal-fired power plant is defeating the purpose, essentially.

For example, as one of the major players in lithium batteries for cell phones, China has established the production capability and value chain to cost-effectively produce lithium batteries in scale. The full set of such standards should not only govern the physical interface, but also take into consideration safety and power grid standards.

Strickland: And as I understand it, carbon capture and storage is looked on as a useful technology for this transition because it can help society move away from fossil fuels like power plants that run on gas and coal and factories that use fossil fuels. Is that how you think about it? Witte: I think so. megatons initially, and then 3.5

The 260-kilometer, 320-kilovolt high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) transmission system, based on technology from Hitachi Energy , in Zurich, marks a milestone in an ongoing transformation of the European power grid: It will plug into the first truly dynamic multiterminal HVDC network in Europe. percent to 1 percent per converter.

Vehicle to Grid is a really interesting area to do projects. The idea here is that you can connect your EV to the power grid and flow power from your EV to the Grid. An electric car acts as a load or micro-generating station for the grid. Advantages of V2G in grid perspective 2.

In late 2008, BYD started selling the first production PHEV in China. This is from "Commercializing Plug-In Hybrids" (pdf), the current CalCars 24-slide presentation about PHEVs available along with other documents at CalCars Downloads. 1,000 pre-orders for small production runs in 2009 and 2010starting 4th quarter 2009.

A January 2007 Pacific National Laboratory study shows that if we woke up tomorrow and all our vehicles could plug in, todays grid could support more than three-quarters of them charging at night without building a single power plant. Dont PHEVs just shift pollution from gasoline cars to power plants?
