People who don’t drive electrics worry about charging but I don’t waste any time “fueling.” I wake up in the morning with @230 miles of travel. When I come home, I plug in. Gas stations are for bio stops, window washing and little packs of donuts. Occasionally I drive 350 miles to ski Mammoth and I have to stop in Lone Pine for a free 45-minute charge while grabbing lunch at The Grill (highly recommend), which I would do anyway. My wife was so jealous of my never stopping for gas that she bought a Tesla Model X in late 2017.

Energy storage is experiencing mad growth. Residential energy storage has grown 9X in Q1 and 10X in Q2, and 74% of customers say they’re  interested in energy storage along with their solar power system. Now that we know the demand is clear, let’s talk about the products.

While electric camper vans and motorhomes make flashier headlines, we’ve long thought hybrids make much more sense in the present. A hybrid system could immediately improve the notoriously poor fuel economy of a recreational vehicle without the limited range issues of pure electric powertrains. It’d also provide a built-in battery to power camp equipment, with an attached charging system to boot.

Glen Morris will be running another four day residential Solar + Storage training courses at Smart Energy Lab near Healesville, Victoria.  Next course runs 8:30am to 5pm 26 February to 1st March (3:00pm finish on Friday).

The irony that can’t be passed over is that the Emirates Stadium is named so because Emirates Airlines — a subsidiary of the Emirates Group, an arm of the Dubai government’s investment corporation — paid for the naming rights. (The airline also pays to have its logo on the front of Arsenal’s shirts.) Oil revenue fueled growth of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, but the vast majority of its revenue today doesn’t come from oil. Even a region built on oil revenue is looking to the future.

“We are very fortunate to have built a strong power electronics program with the support of U of A administration,” Zhao said. “This award reflects the competitiveness of our program and the great team we have been able to assemble.”

Arsenal has aimed to offset each of these issues as part of a broader sustainability effort. The club now recycles around 80 percent of match-day waste like food. It’s also installed LED floodlights in the stadium that use 30 percent less electricity. Lloyd says that the club’s groundsman has experimented with LED-based grow lights that could reduce consumption further. The battery should also make Bunney’s life easier, as the stadium won’t depend on Octopus supplying all its energy during a match.

The transaction includes 14 solar projects with approximately 2,000 MW in the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) market. The portfolio represents a large share of all solar projects currently in the MISO North interconnection queue, with projects in Michigan, Missouri, Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana and Minnesota.

The average price for hydrogen fuel in California is about $16/kg — gasoline is sold by the gallon (volume) and hydrogen by the kilogram (weight). To put that in perspective, 1 gal of gasoline has about the same amount of energy as 1 kg of hydrogen. Most fuel cell electric cars carry about 5 kg to 6 kg of hydrogen but go twice the distance of a modern internal combustion engine car with equivalent gas in the tank, which works out to a gasoline-per-gallon equivalent between $5 and $6.
