In Jawor (Poland), a new CO 2 -neutral engine plant is being built. In order to achieve the goals for energy efficiency, energy flexibility and grid stability, the opportunities arising from the digitization of energy networks must be consistently exploited. This ensures a reliable power supply even in fluctuating grids.

Excess solar power is temporarily stored in second-life battery storage systems from recycled electric vehicle batteries. The battery factories in Stuttgart-Untertürkheim (Germany), Tuscaloosa (USA) and Jawor (Poland) will start at the beginning of the next decade. The plant works closely with the Mercedes-Benz Energy GmbH.

It can also provide lowest-cost long-term storage for electrical grids relying on renewable energy. Now, most of these materials are stored or sent back to landfills. Unlike other renewable energy sources, hydrogen can fuel hard-to-decarbonize heavy industrial sectors like steel, heavy transport, and cement.

Scientists from the EU Joint Research Centre agreed, reporting that nuclear power doesn’t cause undue environmental harm, despite the need to store nuclear waste. But to decarbonize Europe’s grid in short order, the renewable requirements are already steep, and removing nuclear energy from the picture makes it even harder to match that curve.

However, achieving either goal would likely require governments offering hundreds of billions of dollars, if not trillions, in EV subsidies to ICE owners over the next decade, not to mention significant investments in EV charging infrastructure and the electrical grid. billion to more than 2 billion.
