In proportion to its population, the Nordic region—Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden—is strikingly ahead of the rest of the world in adopting electric cars. Given the resilient Nordic power grid, this small share of power demand has not caused issues for electricity distribution networks to date.

The development engineers are also investigating how the constant switching on and off of the batteries affects the power grid; the harmonics this generates could knock the grid out of sync. Practical testing will begin in 2011 on the Danish island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea.

Thus equipped, this eRUF will feature a bi-directional grid connection, which will allow it to be recharged in about two hours at a 400-volt electrical outlet—without the extra electrical circuitry typically required for recharging—and also permit it to feed energy back into the power grid via the same socket.

Siemens proposes that these costs would no longer be included in the electricity price but covered via a fixed-cost, flat-rate payment for the grid connection. All consumers who use the power grid would thus pay an equal share of the costs—regardless if they produce electricity and how much, or what they consume.

Denmark is planning a hydrogen island designed to generate about 1 million tonnes of offshore hydrogen starting in 2030. Regardless of whether hydrogen or PtX products are being generated, the production islands won’t be directly connected to an onshore power grid, and so they’ll need to operate reliably on their own.

There are at least a half dozen different technologies to power cars with electricity under construction. Better Place is building stations in San Francisco, Hawaii, Israel, and Denmark to swap out 1,000 pound batteries in a car wash type set up. The electricity for recharging has to come from somewhere, which means power plants.

To reach the 80x30 goal, the US power grid would need to add between 60 and 80 GW of new clean power every year (double the record 35 GW of renewables added in 2020). Many have set renewable portfolio standards (RPSs), mandating that renewables make up a certain part of the power grid. It may seem daunting.
