Wind and solar parks produce a large portion of their energy. Then, as now, wind farms are operating off the world’s coasts—but not all of these offshore sites are connected to the mainland via underwater power cables. Some of the wind farms instead sit in clusters more than 100 kilometers out at sea.

Although they are targeting an initial implementation France, they see it as broadly applicable. Further, they note, France is unique in that its nuclear plants cannot use all the electricity they could generate, for lack of demand. Lepage and Bell propose establishing a 30-year “Green Redemption Fund” in France to support VGV.

Challenges of using “green energy” to power electric cars: If wind farms are chosen to generate the power for the projected two billion cars at UK average usage, this requires the equivalent of a further years’ worth of total global copper supply and 10 years’ worth of global neodymium and dysprosium production to build the windfarms.

This entity will offer a simple, fast and cost-optimized logistics scheme thanks to industrial management in the factory, for the Île-de-France commercial network (RRG, dealerships, Renault Occasions/RVO). Optimizing the battery’s life cycle is a crucial issue for the development of the sector and limiting its impact on the environment.

from the year before, with solar jumping 40.3% Wind generated 37% of the state’s renewable electricity, and for the first time, solar (27%) overtook geothermal (20%) as the second-largest source of renewable generation. In 2015, California increased renewable electricity to 21.9% of total electricity generation, up 1.8%
