Distributed Energy gets a boost

A Step closer to V2G and the hydrogen highway?

One of the great possibilities of both plug-in hybrid vehicles and the hydrogen highway is that both technologies could help drive electric grid distribution. Doing so would increase the efficiency of the grid, and make it less prone to terrorist attacks, natural disasters, etc.

Unfortunately, the grid isn't prepared for distributive energy, but work is being done, such as the new contract that UQM Technologies received to develop an advanced grid-connect inverter (more).

Developments such as these help create the infrastructure that can truly end America's foreign oil dependency while significantly reducing our carbon footprint.
