Cyclone Power Technologies has completed internal testing of its initial waste heat power generator ( earlier post ) and has shipped the beta unit to its customer, Bent Glass Design. The final system is expected to be cash positive in 12 months and provide a full payback to Bent Glass within three years.

Audi will supply three sources of green energy in the scope of the e-gas project: electricity, hydrogen and methane gas. The e-gas project consists of two main components: Audi is contributing to the construction of offshore North Sea wind turbines which will generate clean power,that is then fed into the public power grid.

The Audi e-gas plant in the city of Werlte in Lower Saxony ( earlier post ) produces CO 2 neutral-fuel (synthetic methane from water, renewable electricity and CO 2 ); it now also contributes toward stabilizing the public power grid. This therefore considerably increases the overall efficiency of the Power-to-Gas/biogas plant.

In a typical scenario, wind power out at sea would be converted only once to direct current and then used to electrolyze water. The water supply would literally surround the offshore platform—all that would be needed would be to desalinate and purify it. H2Mare will also look into initial strategies for managing a small island grid.

The winds had barely died down when electric-power specialists and others began calling for a radical overhaul of Puerto Rico’s electricity networks, one that would emphasize renewable energy, distributed generation, and, critically, microgrids. A microgrid is like a miniaturized, tightly controlled version of a power grid.
