EDP, TechnipFMC and partners to develop a concept study for green hydrogen production from offshore wind: BEHYOND

Green Car Congress

coordinator and the entity responsible for the implementation of several phases: the strategic evaluation of the offshore wind-to-hydrogen market; the definition of viable business cases; and the technology roadmap to reach commercial maturity. EDP, through the participation of EDP NEW and EDP Inovação, is the project.

CMU researchers find controlled charging of PHEVs can cut cost of integration into electricity system by 54-73%; higher benefits with wind power

Green Car Congress

The magnitude of these savings is ~5% to 15% higher in a system with 20% wind penetration compared to a system with no wind power, and the savings are 50–60% higher in a system that requires capacity expansion. Controlled charging can also take advantage of the high levels of wind generation that commonly occur at night in the US.

Reference scenario impact indicator values by eight components and nine stressor sources. Components: WT = wind turbine; Fnd = foundation; EC = electrical connections, including substation; Inst = installation; IOo = input-output, other; Mnt = Maintenance, excluding replacement parts; RP = replacement parts; EOL = end-of-life.

EIA projects decline in transportation sector energy consumption through 2037 despite increase in VMT, followed by increase

Green Car Congress

For the Transportation sector, EIA projects that energy consumption will decline between 2019 and 2037 (in the Reference case) because increases in fuel economy more than offset growth in vehicle miles traveled (VMT). Light-duty vehicle miles traveled increases by 20% in the Reference case, growing from 2.9 trillion miles in 2018 to 3.5

Build a Passive Radar With Software-Defined Radio

Cars That Think

A reference antenna picks up a signal from, say, a cell tower, while a surveillance antenna is tuned to the same frequency. The reference and surveillance signals are compared. The Pi is connected to the SDR via a data link, and in turn the SDR is connected via coaxial cables to two directional TV antennas [right and left].

The unique role some Tribal nations are taking in the EV transition

Plug in America

In Bob’s words, this would bring “good medicine” to these communities and, in turn, the Nation and the World, or “Turtle Island,” as it is often referred to by Indigenous people in North America. That moment of clarity was to build an electric pipeline linking Tribal nations with charging stations and EVs across the Midwest.

What is Renewable energy integration, challenges, why it is needed

Baua Electric

Renewable energy integration refers to the process of efficiently incorporating renewable energy sources into existing energy systems. This involves the seamless blending of renewable energy, such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal power, into the overall energy infrastructure to meet the growing demand for clean and sustainable energy.
