E.ON developing pilot hydrogen plant for storing wind power in the German gas grid

Green Car Congress

is developing a pilot plant in Falkenhagen in the north east of Germany to convert power from wind energy into hydrogen which can then be stored in the country’s gas grid. Using power from renewable energy sources, the plant will produce about 360 m 3 (30 kg) of hydrogen per hour from 2013 onwards through electrolysis.

Will Supercapacitors Come to AI's Rescue?

Cars That Think

These coordinated spikes can strain the power grid, and the issue is promising to get worse rather than better in the near future. AI workloads sometimes use power in short bursts, causing the power grid to see a wildly oscillating load (blue). Supercapacitors have two parallel plates, like regular capacitors.
