Ford of Europe has put two giant wind turbines, each with a height of 150 meters, into service at the Ford Genk plant in Belgium. Installed by local energy company, Electrabel, each unit has an output of 2MW of power. Genk is not the only Ford of Europe plant to use electricity generated by wind turbines.
Under the new contract, around 65% of the electricity supply comes from hydropower, while the remainder comes from solar power, wind power and other renewable sources. At the Ghent plant in Belgium, Volvo Cars installed 15,000 solar panels in 2018, the first large-scale introduction of solar energy in its global manufacturing network.
Arcadia connects renters and homeowners across the US to wind and solar energy through utility data and billing technology. Audi of America is offering qualified customers who purchase or lease a 2021 Audi e-tron or e-tron Sportback a subscription to Arcadia at no additional charge for up to five years. 2021 Audi e-tron.
UK-based Connected Energy and Groupe Renault have installed two quick-charge stations based on Connected Energy’s E-STOR energy storage technology on highways in Belgium and Germany. Economical and simple to install, E-STOR will contribute to the development of a network of quick-charging stations in Europe.
At the center of the largest chemical industry cluster in Europe and close to the North Sea, it provides transportation connections to Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, UK, and France. North Sea countries are major producers of wind power with more than 15 gigawatts (GW) of installed capacity. million tons of barge freight.
Battery modules and cells needed in Belgium for the Audi e-tron and Audi e-tron Sportback were up to now transported by truck over the approximately 1,300-kilometer-long route from the supplier in Hungary. In Hungary and Belgium, Audi uses DBeco neutral. New equipment and processes have been installed specifically for this purpose.
These provide the actual power transfer to the vehicle, and are installed just under the road surface. Magnetic shielding under the primary winding (magnetic layer) to prevent electromagnetic interference. Both can be installed underneath the vehicle. The PRIMOVE technology consists of both wayside and vehicle components.
This will include offering electrolyzers for both small-scale hydrogen production—such as a hydrogen fueling system for on-site hydrogen generation—as well as for large-scale hydrogen generation installations capable of 100 megawatts and beyond.
The Katholieke High School of Limburg, Belgium (KHLim) will deploy ChargePoint Networked Charging stations as part of the first European Clean Mobility Center in Belgium. KHLim’s CO 2 neutral area produces its own green energy through wind, heat and solar.

To create true zero emission technology, electricity must come from renewable sources – and now Ford is taking the lead with wind power. The company has put two giant wind turbines, each standing more than 150 metres tall, into service at its Ford Genk plant in Belgium. 1.6litre engine production line.
Image: BASF Wind and solar generated more electricity than fossil fuels in the EU during the first six months of 2024 for the first time ever in a half-year period. New analysis from independent energy think tank Ember reveals that wind and solar grew to an all-time high of 30% of the EU’s electricity in the first half of 2024.
The European Green Deal , which plans for an enormous build-out of Europes transmission network by 2030 to accelerate electrification, is imperiled by the protracted wait times for transformers, says Joannes Laveyne , an electrical engineer and energy-systems expert at Ghent University, in Belgium.
In 2019, Willem-Alexander, king of the Netherlands, presided over the installation of a bidirectional charging station in Utrecht. Here the king [middle] is shown with Robin Berg [left], founder of We Drive Solar, and Jerôme Pannaud [right], Renault's general manager for Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg.
