Siemens suggests abandoning a fixed target for renewable energies and concentrating on the CO 2 reduction goal. Relying on a higher share of efficient, low-emission combined cycle power plants and wind energy could save €150 billion (US$200 billion) by 2030 while attaining the same CO 2 targets, Siemens says.

It can be selected with climate-friendly Audi e-gas (synthetic natural gas produced with renewable energy in a Power-to-Gas process, earlier post ) or compressed natural gas (CNG), or can be powered with gasoline. The actual bursting pressure is much higher still and far exceeds the legal requirements.

Audi’s basic goal is to combine renewable energy (e.g. solar and wind), water and CO 2 to produce liquid or gaseous fuels with a very low carbon intensity. to the realization of the renewable energy + water + CO 2 formula. The e-gas plant only operates when there is too much electricity from renewable sources in the grid.

At COP27, he said that even though the first legally binding international treaty on climate change, known as the Paris Agreement , was adopted nearly a decade ago, countries have yet to come to a consensus on how to stop burning fossil fuels, among other issues. We don’t have enough solar energy and wind energy.”

A first test setup located near Ingolstadt recently started supplying the grid. A container for four traction batteries of various sizes works in tandem with a photovoltaic system that is capable of supplying up to 20 kW of power on sunny days. Hydrogen is supplied to the anode, where it is broken down into protons and electrons.
