California Hydrogen Business Council says a robust P2G RD&D program should be a priority for the state

Green Car Congress

The case for using Power-to-Gas solutions to store renewable energy is compelling for a number of important use cases, according to a new white paper released by the California Hydrogen Business Council (CHBC). P2G systems use electrolysis powered by renewable energy to split water into hydrogen and oxygen—i.e., Click to enlarge.

Harvard team demonstrates new metal-free organic–inorganic aqueous flow battery; potential breakthrough for low-cost grid-scale storage

Green Car Congress

The technology could fundamentally transform the way electricity is stored on the grid, making power from renewable energy sources such as wind and sun far more economical and reliable. But until now, flow batteries have relied on chemicals that are expensive or hard to maintain, driving up the cost of storing energy.

Roev’s electric ute plans explained: Conversions now, manufacturing its own vehicle by 2026

EV Central

But the newcomer is a lot more than just another electric car brand. Roev, which stands for renewable optimised electric vehicles, has detailed plans to build electric utes, initially starting with Toyota Hiluxes and Ford Rangers converted to electric and eventually branching out to a ute designed and engineered in Australia. “We
