Electrify America reaches 30MW in installed battery energy storage at 140 DC-fast charging stations across the US; behind-the-meter grid services

Green Car Congress

The battery energy storage systems store power when electricity costs are low and supplement power during high points of consumption, minimizing impact on the electrical grid and mitigating demand surges to help Electrify America maintain consistent pricing.

Siemens Energy, FFI and GeoPura developing prototype ammonia cracker to produce hydrogen

Green Car Congress

The prototype will use ammonia to deliver 200kg of hydrogen a day—enough to power around 5-10 hydrogen fuel cell-electric buses. We have just 13 years to deliver a net-zero electricity grid for the UK. The traditional process of producing ammonia has used “grey” or “black” hydrogen from either natural gas or coal.

Opinion: Reinventing fuel-based power for a more secure and resilient grid

Green Car Congress

With battery storage able to provide a unique role in balancing a renewable electricity grid, Toby Gill, CEO of Intelligent Power Generation, asks could innovations in green hydrogen and biofuel technologies contribute to a more optimized and economical energy mix? A line of electricity pylons in the UK countryside.

To Store or Not to Store: That is the Question

Green Car Congress

Typical daily grid demand. “ Why do you need energy storage on the grid, when the grid is full of power plants that generate all the energy that is needed? ” It would seem like a good question to ask and applies the same logic has been used for the past fifty years in determining grid strategy.

Air Products announces multi-billion dollar net-zero blue hydrogen energy complex in Edmonton, Alberta

Green Car Congress

The new facility will capture more than 95% of CO 2 produced by generating hydrogen from the feedstock natural gas and store it safely back underground (i.e., Hydrogen-fueled electricity will offset the remaining five percent of emissions. The project relies on an innovative combination of well-established technologies.

EPRI-NRDC report finds widespread vehicle electrification and a cleaner grid could lead to substantial cuts in GHG by 2050

Green Car Congress

Widespread adoption of electric transportation, including electrification in the off-road sector, could lead to substantial reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and could modestly improve air quality, according to a new analysis released by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC).

SGH2 building largest green hydrogen production facility in California; gasification of waste into H2

Green Car Congress

SGH2’s gasification process uses a plasma-enhanced thermal catalytic conversion process optimized with oxygen-enriched gas. The SPEG process extracts all carbon from the waste feedstock, removes all particulates and acid gases, and produces no toxins or pollution. That’s why our partnership with SGH2 is so important.
