This is necessary because power generation from renewable energies depends on availability of sun and wind and can therefore only be controlled to a limited extent. With this business model, we can help stabilize the grid and expand the use of sustainably-generated electricity. Joachim Kolling, head of BMW Energy Services.

New plants in Germany and Europe are planned with a CO 2 -neutral energy supply from the start: Already, the entire electricity demand of the smart plant in Hambach (France) is obtained from renewable energy sources. In Jawor (Poland), a new CO 2 -neutral engine plant is being built. The plant will start operating in 2019.

Unlike internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, EVs emit no direct emissions when running on electricity. The upstream, “well to wheel” emissions of the EV are linked to electricity generation and the electrical grid, with lower emissions in regions that use more renewable energy sources. Let’s not forget our carbon footprint.
