HVSC systems enable ships to draw electricity from onshore power grids while in port to operate onboard equipment as refrigeration units, lighting, cooling and heating systems, instead of burning fuel oil to run electrical generators.

Most of the activity is in Europe , where there are at least 10 major offshore wind and hydrogen projects , including demonstration systems being built or planned in the North Sea, the Atlantic, and off the coast of Ireland. Today, a typical offshore wind farm has about 1 GW of installed capacity; future farms will offer about 2 GW each.)

To save development and maintenance costs, and to leverage emerging standards, charging station manufacturers increasingly turn to EV ecosystem partners. Level 2 – Standard Public Charging Stations Level 2 chargers are found at most public charging stations and also use AC power (208/240V in the US, 230/400 VAC in Europe).

The growth of 2021 EV sales, driven by strong demand in Europe and China, far exceeded the total car market, which was up 26%. To meet future demand, EU regulations call for a ratio of 1 public charger per 10 EVs and will require member countries to install charging points every 60 kilometers on public highways.

Demand for lithium-ion cells is growing fast, as automakers electrify their fleets and utilities install big batteries to stabilize the power grid. Europe also faces a glut of battery capacity, yet governments are pushing for more. Among efforts to woo battery makers, the administration offered a conditional USD 9.2

Speeding up the shift to e-mobility will help us to meet the extremely ambitious CO 2 targets that have been set in Europe, China and the USA. The power electronics are effectively a link that controls the flow of high-voltage energy between the motor and the battery. —Thomas Ulbrich. Earlier post.).

This renewable production capacity is increasingly important to ensure the existing power grid can accept more renewable sources. Of course, this also has the merit of producing so-called “green hydrogen”. In addition, fuel cell vehicles have zero-CO 2 and zero particulate tailpipe emissions.

can be varied via three different driving style profiles: the standard mode (automatically on); ‘Eco’; and ‘Eco+’. Anyone traveling short distances will stay in standard mode. The effects of selecting this mode include paring back the e-vehicle’s maximum power output to 50 kW and limiting its top speed to 115 km/h (71 mph).
