and Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) on a new pilot project that will allow communication between electric vehicles (EVs) and the power grid. This project will demonstrate and test an electric vehicle’s ability to receive and respond to charge instructions based on the grid condition and the vehicle’s battery state.

Thereby, we completely forego coal-based electricity and obtain our electrical energy from only renewable sources. Today, new plants in Europe are already planned with a CO2-neutral energy supply from the start. Already existing highly efficient gas CHP systems additionally generate local heat and power at the factories.

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.

The solutions Rahman outlined were the use of proven methods that reduce electricity usage, making coal plants more efficient, using hydrogen and other storage solutions, promoting more renewables, installing new types of nuclear reactors, and encouraging cross-border power transfers. It results in higher efficiencies: about 46 percent.

BMW i3, BMW i8 and iPerformance owners in the Greater San Francisco Bay Area who are Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) customers are invited to apply for participation in a 24-month program focused on managed EV and PHEV charging. If a customer does not opt-out, the vehicle charging can be shifted to meet the needs of the energy grid.

Engineers have discussed the assumed need for localized energy storage as the demand for electricity grows and tapping into EVs could be a clever way of avoiding having to construct warehouse-sized battery hubs. The companies are hoping to sell the concept as a way to help “decarbonize” the energy grid.

The three leading new options to re-supply our autos with energy are charging at home, battery swap stations and fast charge stations. Many future owners may be driving EVs in an effort to reduce their carbon footprint and charging at home could give them the opportunity to control the source of the energy that goes into their car.
