Japan team evaluates battery-assisted low-cost hydrogen production from solar energy

Green Car Congress

For comparison, the US DOE’s 2020 target for the levelized cost of hydrogen (production only) is $2.30/kg. The findings are published in a paper in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy. This approximately converts to US$1.92 to US$3.00/kg kg of hydrogen, with 1 kg H 2 equal to about 12 Nm 3 of hydrogen. 2018.11.119 ).

Siemens presents three-point plan for implementing cost-efficient energy transition in Germany

Green Car Congress

Siemens suggests abandoning a fixed target for renewable energies and concentrating on the CO 2 reduction goal. Relying on a higher share of efficient, low-emission combined cycle power plants and wind energy could save €150 billion (US$200 billion) by 2030 while attaining the same CO 2 targets, Siemens says.

Honda joins vehicle-to-grid technology demonstration project in partnership with University of Delaware and NRG Energy

Green Car Congress

Such a system has the potential to reduce or eliminate the fluctuation of the grid, which can occur more frequently when renewable energy sources are introduced to the grid. Electric vehicle owners potentially benefit from supporting a more stable power grid, which can lead to reduced utility costs for the vehicle owner.
