In a new study published in the journal Applied Energy , Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) researchers found that controlled charging of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) reduces the costs of integrating the vehicles into an electricity system by 54–73% depending on the scenario.

Starting in 2013, Audi will begin series production of TCNG models whose engines—derived from TFSI units—will be powered by e-gas: synthetic methane produced via the methanation of hydrogen produced by electrolysis using renewable electricity. achieving a neutral CO 2 balance across the entire mobility chain.

Together with other highly-flexible controllable systems in the BMW Group production network, they will contribute to the stability of the public grid outside of the plant. Electricity generation from variable renewable electricity sources (VRE) such as wind and solar power has grown rapidly and is expected to continue to do so.

Electric vehicles (EVs) are looking to be a huge part of our future. As the costs of climate change and the price of oil both become too high to bear, auto manufacturers will shift more of their vehicle fleets to electric. And as electric-vehicle technology advances, it may simply become better than traditional combustion.

That need for balance is true of electric power grids, too. Spiking demand for electric heat collided with supply problems created by frozen natural-gas equipment and below-average wind-power production. The brown line shows the uncoordinated load from 1,000 electric water heaters for reference.

Solar accounted for 32% of US new generating capacity in 2014, beating out both wind energy and coal for the second year in a row. Solar provided roughly one third of all new electric generating capacity in the US in 2014. The additions are dominated by wind (9.8 The additions are dominated by wind (9.8
