I was delighted to be invited by Mike Dilke of Relaxback UK to join him in a radio discussion together with Chris Jardine, the Technical Director at JoJu Solar. RelaxBackUK Show (Image: RelaxBack) We covered a range of topics relating to electric cars, the impact on infrastructure and the evolving development of
In the first two quarters of 2018 Tesla deployed 40% more energy storage than all of 2017, with 300-400% growth expected for 2019. Solar power deployments grew 11% to 84 MW over a low Q1 value.
Separate markets could evolve as EVs push for batteries with higher density and stationary storage seeks higher cycling capability
Rapid electric vehicle chargers have been added to a solar and storage hub in Dundee to utilise the clean electricity generation and batteries to charge the city’s fleet of electric vehicles.
A world where energy is clean, cost effective and reliable for everyone is now within sight
Today I’ve been charging my electric car (a BMW i3) for free using the solar panels on the roof of my house.
An increasing number of major car manufacturers are developing solutions in a space that at first glance may seem like a strange choice: energy storage.BMW recently signed a contract that adds 500 of its i3 battery packs to the UK national energy grid. Audi is running a pilot project. Renault is turning some of its
Tesla has been slowly deploying its solar products and energy storage systems on its own charging network in order to have their fleet drive on solar power, but the same products can also benefit all other electric vehicles.With that mindset, a company in the Netherlands just added Tesla Powerpacks to a universal charging station with
The biggest news in the EV space over the last few months has been the launch of the Jaguar I-PACE, the first electric car from Jaguar Land-Rover. We saw it for the first time ‘in the flesh’ at the Fully Charged Live show and rather liked the look of it.
At the inaugural Fully Charged Live even at Silverstone, I met Greg Fairbotham the founder of Zoom EV, a UK based peer-to-peer car sharing platform for low emission vehicles. The premise is you can generate income while owning a new EV – nice.
