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.,

SAE technical experts: fuel cell technology has advanced significantly, FC vehicle production has begun, further cost reductions & infrastructure development required

Green Car Congress

Honda also sees the possibility of a “hydrogen-powered society” based on renewable energy and renewable-energy-generated hydrogen. Accordingly, Honda has not only launched FCVs that use hydrogen, but has also developed compact hydrogen stations that generate hydrogen, and external power output devices that get connected to FCVs.

Two studies exploring battery costs for hybrids and plug-ins: LEESS, PHEV20, and PHEV40

Green Car Congress

For PHEV20 batteries, TIAX found significant overlap in battery costs among five cathode classes, with wider variation within each chemistry based on the electrode design than between chemistries. Costs were modeled for a 300V PHEV battery pack that could provide 5.5 Cells were designed for a range of electrode loadings (1.5–3
