In Germany, all Mercedes-Benz plants will be supplied with CO 2 -neutral energy. Today, new plants in Europe are already planned with a CO2-neutral energy supply from the start. With a CO2-neutral energy supply of the plants, we are consistently pursuing this approach and are actively driving sustainability in production.

Solar also generates a good share of the power generated when the sun shines. What we have not done so well is to ensure that we have a solid base level of generation to supply electricity when there is no sun and no wind. Why, simple the US embraced Fracking to produce bountifully supplies of cheap gas. No Storage.

In 2012, 70% of Estonia’s total primary energy supply (TPES) came from oil shale. Waste heat is used to generate electricity, making Enefit shale oil plants net producers of electricity. However, the direct combustion of oil shale, or its transformation into shale oil and then other fuels, emits more CO 2 than any other primary fuel.

Electric cars and a smart electric grid have a bright future, according to panelists at a roundtable discussion on the subject that I attended last Friday in Boston. “I In effect, cars would be acting like tiny power stations. But a large-scale system of electric cars and smart grids is unlikely to be ready soon.

The three leading new options to re-supply our autos with energy are charging at home, battery swap stations and fast charge stations. Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities.
