California Hydrogen Business Council says a robust P2G RD&D program should be a priority for the state

Green Car Congress

P2G converts electrical energy to chemical energy in the form of hydrogen. The hydrogen can then be transported through the natural gas grid via blending or further conversion to methane, transported by other means such as trucks, or used directly at the point of production. Power-to-Gas concept. Click to enlarge. The duck curve.

California PUC requires SCE to procure at least 50 MW of new electrical capacity in LA Basin from energy storage systems

Green Car Congress

The decision requires that the new resources be located in a specific transmission-constrained area in Los Angeles in order to ensure adequate available electrical capacity to meet peak demand, and ensure the safety and reliability of the local electrical grid. This is a critical step, bridging our past and future.

PHEVLERs are the Zero CO2 Clean Green Machines of the Future

Green Car Congress

PHEVLERs make our electric grid more efficient. [ 15 ] Electric power grids are designed with capacity to serve the highest power peaks demanded (e.g. Using these times for car battery charging, a typical household electrical infrastructure could support 3 or more PHEVLERs. PHEVLERs help support the electric grid.

LowCVP reports indicate pathways for meeting renewable energy targets in transportation, decarbonizing fuel to 2030 and beyond

Green Car Congress

In all cases, the analysts concluded that the implied uptake of new blends/vehicles and/or supply of double counting suggested an ambitious implementation program and that incentives will be necessary. The UK’s long term climate strategy implies a virtual decarbonization of road transport by 2050.

Mad Power thoughts

EV Info

Wind farms stand idle for days on end, a fire interrupts a vital cable from France, a combination of post-Covid economic recovery and Russia tightening supply means the gas price has shot through the roof – and so the market price of both home heating and electricity is rocketing. Climate Change. This was plain wrong.
