Low-cost carbon fiber has widespread application in automobiles, wind turbines, and various other industrial applications. The company is currently testing samples of the battery, expects the product to be commercially available in 2013, and has already built a list of several companies who have committed to buy the product.

For me, hydrogen cracks all those problems and it also solves other issues along the way such as making best use of wind energy, for example. We also produce a huge amount of waste and we are looking at schemes that convert biomass into hydrogen.

Over the past 10 years, the company has deployed hundreds of EV ARCs, which represent a growing list of incredibly compelling use cases, including otherwise impossible charging locations. Desmond: With a couple of beers and a couple of hours, we could literally write a list two or three hundred items long. It’s fantastically robust.

Full listings of the grant awards by category and state are available here and here. The Administration is funding several grid modernization projects across the country that will significantly reduce the amount of power that is wasted from the time it is produced at a power plant to the time it gets to a house.

Energy experts have been warning that electricity is likely to get more expensive and less reliable unless renewable power that waxes and wanes under inconstant sunlight and wind is backed up by generators that can run whenever needed.

Plus more people are installing rooftop solar photovoltaic systems, and clean wind power is vastly expanding nationally (see study by eminent environmentalist Lester Brown cited at CalCars Kudos ). In some areas where wind and hydropower is wasted at night, the rate can be as low as 2-3 cents per kWh. Thats 20-25 cents a gallon.

All the electricity used to produce the BMW i models at the Leipzig plant is wind-generated. The production of the i3 marks the first time an automobile manufacturing plant in Germany has installed wind turbines on site to directly power production.) The SGL carbon fiber plant at Moses Lake, Washington, uses 100% hydropower.

The legislation would also provide new incentives for domestic oil and gas drilling, nuclear power plant construction, carbon capture and storage, and renewable energy sources like wind and solar. A list of the clean energy programs being funded through auction proceeds can be found on RGGI’s website.
