Results of a study by a team at the Hawaii Natural Energy Institute, SOEST, University of Hawaii at Manoa, suggest that the additional cycling to discharge vehicle batteries to the power grid in a vehicle-to-grid (V2G) scenario, even at constant power, is detrimental to EV battery cell performance. —Dubarry et al.

Such reasons include advantages to the electrical grid such as load balancing and energy storage, increased jobs and economic development, reduced stormwater pollution and consumer savings. The bill, HB 2515, introduced in the 2020 legislative session, gained the support of eight committee chairs in its first year.

Ocean waves, tides, currents, thermal gradients, and free-flowing rivers represent a promising energy source located close to centers of electricity demand. The numerical model will greatly reduce deployment risk and add to design surety for floating ocean thermal conversion platforms. DOE Funding: $600,000. Total Project Value: $1,000,000.
