In the future, 100% of additional purchased electricity will come from verifiable renewable sources, such as wind- and hydropower. The production hall uses renewable energy and reduces water consumption and waste significantly. However, today’s production grids are powered by alternating current—which has to be converted.

About 160 kilometers northwest of Beijing, the city of Zhangjiakou with its rugged terrain boasts some of the richest wind and solar resources in China. Renewables account for nearly half of the city’s electricity output with less than a third of its full solar and wind potential of 70 gigawatts installed so far.

On the other hand, drivers of other vehicles waste considerable time making special trips to refuel their internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles at the liquid fuel station or their battery electric vehicle (BEV) at the rapid recharging station. PHEVLERs make our electric grid more efficient. [

In Norway , which is the world leader in renewable energy use, 45% of electricity comes from hydropower, while Brazil in second place gets 32% of its total energy supply from biofuel and waste energy. In the US, 36% of electricity is generated using renewables, including wind, solar, and hydropower, as well as non-CO2-emitting nuclear power.

4 Onboard Charger: The onboard charger converts AC (alternating current) power from an external charging station or electrical outlet into DC (direct current) power to recharge the vehicle’s battery pack. 7 DC-DC Converter: A DC-DC converter converts high voltage DC supply from the battery to low voltage supply.

By cutting red tape and avoiding costs for construction and electrical work, combined with free solar energy, Beam Global says its EV ARC systems can offer customers a lower total cost of ownership compared to grid-tied charging stations. This may well be the case with the EV ARC, a solar-powered off-grid charging station made by Beam Global.

While renewable energy, particularly solar and wind, may have some potential to mitigate carbon emissions, this is not seen as a viable large-scale alternative for commercial shipping. Electricity from the grid will most likely be used more and more to charge batteries for ship operations in ports, but also for propulsion.
