IPG to demo Flameless Ceramic Turbine for clean, off-grid power in EV charging

Green Car Congress

IPG secured the £1 million as part of the Highways England (HE) and Innovate UK’s £20-million innovation call to invest in projects that can help improve air quality and operation of England’s roads. Grid access and capacity issues, as well as the infeasibility of on-site solar and wind, is a barrier for EV charging in many locations.

Blue World Technologies launches next-generation methanol fuel cell system for stationary power generation

Green Car Congress

The CellPack Stationary can also be adapted to other demands such as electric vehicle charging or power supply for low-quality- or off-grid installations. On the market for smaller gensets, we can make a significant difference now bringing down CO 2 emissions and air pollution. So, this is where we start, one generator at a time.

Energiepark Mainz comes online; hydrogen from wind power; Siemens 6MW electrolysis system

Green Car Congress

The energy park will produce hydrogen using electricity from neighboring wind parks. If this technology is adopted on a wide enough scale, it has the potential to significantly reduce traffic-related environmental pollution. Some of the hydrogen will also be fed into the natural gas grid for heating or power generation.

China is on track to reach its clean energy targets this month… six years ahead of schedule

Baua Electric

China, the world’s largest pollution emitter, is going green with clean energy alternatives and doing so quickly. Recent energy reports detail the nation’s commitment to implementing solar and wind power, so much so that it is expected to achieve its 2030 clean energy targets by the end of the month. In June, it activated a 3.5-gigawatt,

The Complex Calculus of Clean Energy and Zero Emissions

Cars That Think

Jenkins has also helped push Congress to think more seriously about the power grid, releasing a report last year that showed that much of the 43 percent emissions reduction expected by 2030 would be squandered if the United States doesn’t double the pace of transmission upgrades. power-grid transmission.
