There are four guidelines to follow: Refrain from using or burning oil, gas or coal. If an EV is charged with electricity that is generated from renewable sources (such as solar, wind, geothermal, or hydroelectric), then there are no fossil fuel emissions associated with that charging or driving process.

Several factors combine to make Puerto Rico an ideal place for solar power and microgrids. Next year, we plan to install and further test our controller on-site in the central Puerto Rican community of Adjuntas. During and after Maria, Casa Pueblo continued to operate a solar-based microgrid it had installed in 2017.

It was one year ago that we decided to add solar panels to our roof. In March 2020 we installed 9 solar panels an inverter and 2 battery packs. Panels: JA Solar black. The solar panels attach to the roof and convert solar light into electrical energy. The main reasons were: Reduce our monthly electricity.

One of the challenges we face is that our 2020 renewable energy goal was based on doubling solar capacity by 2015. Complexity of solar purchase power agreements and the cost competitiveness of solar energy in various regions of the world are impacting the pace at which we can add solar capacity.

In addition, installing EV charging at your business can encourage employees and guests to buy electric vehicles. The source of the electricity – whether renewable sources like wind, solar, or water, or nonrenewable sources like coal – is also important. One of those actions is installing EV charging equipment.

The total cost of purchasing and driving one—the cost of ownership—has fallen nearly to parity with a typical gasoline-fueled car. Manufacturing an EV battery using coal-based electricity results in more than three times the greenhouse-gas emissions of manufacturing a battery with electricity from renewable sources.

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.
