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.,

Hybrid biomass flow battery stores electricity and produces valuable chemicals at the same time

Green Car Congress

Rechargeable batteries store electricity in their electrode materials, while redox flow batteries use chemicals stored in tanks attached to the electrodes. Researchers have now developed a battery system based on a hybrid cell, which not only stores and provides electricity but also produces valuable chemicals in a flow system.

U of Illinois team models capabilities of hybrid-electric propulsion systems for general aviation aircraft

Green Car Congress

The researchers compared the sensitivity of range and fuel economy to the level of electrification, battery specific energy density, and electric motor power density. The same sensitivities were studied with a series hybrid-electric drivetrain. Jet fuel and aviation gasoline are easy to store on an airplane.

Daimler Buses introduces Citaro hybrid bus; available on diesel and gas models; separate 48V network

Green Car Congress

The electric motor on the Citaro hybrid assists the combustion engine when high levels of power are required, particularly when moving off. It does not serve to boost maximum power; the output and torque figures for the bus remain unchanged. The electric power generated by recuperation is stored in a bank of supercapacitors.
