Rystad Energy expects strong growth in hydrogen pipelines through 2035

Green Car Congress

According to Rystad Energy research, Spain, France, and Germany are among the countries committed or considering cross border pipelines to facilitate energy flows, while the UK with its extensive gas grid finds itself in a strong position to switch from natural gas to hydrogen. Repurposing natural gas pipelines.

GM and ABB demonstrate prototype of Volt battery pack grid re-use application

Green Car Congress

In conjunction with the Plug-in 2011 event in Raleigh, NC, GM and ABB demonstrated a lab prototype of a distributed energy storage (DES) system that combines Volt battery technology and a proven grid-tied electric power inverter. Earlier post.) The first step toward this field demo is to build a lab prototype.

Rolls-Royce Power Systems road map for climate-neutrality; 35% cut by 2030 from 2019; key role of mtu engines

Green Car Congress

From 2025, these will be used in power generation solutions—from balancing energy for compensating fluctuations in the public grid to continuous power and the provision of emergency power in, for example, hospitals and data centers. Or it relates to fuels such as hydrogen, that would not at all emit CO 2 at the exhaust pipe.

DOE announces $11.5M in Phase 1 funding for carbon capture and storage program; ARPA-E FLECCS

Green Car Congress

FLECCS project teams will work to develop carbon capture and storage (CCS) processes that better enable technologies, such as natural gas power generators, to be responsive to grid conditions in a high variable renewable energy (VRE) penetration environment. Phase 1 FLECCS projects are: GE Global Research. 8 Rivers Capital.

Volkswagen and LichtBlick Partner on Home Combined Heat and Power Systems; LichtBlick Plans a SchwarmStrom for 2,000 MW of Decentralized Power

Green Car Congress

The EcoBlue units consist of a natural gas engine that powers a generator; the exhaust gas is used for the heating component. In the ZuhauseKraftwerk Schwarmstrom concept, each EcoBlue unit will connect to a grid operations center, and will be able to provide power on demand to the grid. Christian Friege.

Scuderi Group to build and to install LPG-powered split-cycle generator with compressed air storage capability

Green Car Congress

The Scuderi split-cycle design divides the four strokes of the conventional combustion cycle over two paired cylinders: one intake/compression cylinder and one power/exhaust cylinder, connected by a crossover port. The Scuderi engine, acting as a back-up generator when the grid goes down, can also produce electricity. Earlier post.)

Liquid Air Energy Network forms in UK; focus on transportation and energy storage

Green Car Congress

Air can be turned into a liquid by cooling it to around -196 °C using standard industrial equipment; 700 liters of ambient air becomes about 1 liter of liquid air, which can then be stored in an unpressurised insulated vessel. MDI, earlier post ) expand compressed air from an ambient temperature store to create drive.
