Opinion: Reinventing fuel-based power for a more secure and resilient grid

Green Car Congress

DECEMBER 1, 2020

With battery storage able to provide a unique role in balancing a renewable electricity grid, Toby Gill, CEO of Intelligent Power Generation, asks could innovations in green hydrogen and biofuel technologies contribute to a more optimized and economical energy mix? Our grid is changing, and so must the way we operate it.
