The molecules of the energy transition

Whatever the path to a zero-carbon world, electricity will not be the sole source of energy: molecules such as hydrogen, methane and ethanol will be required for a long time to come.

Energy storage with second life batteries by ENGIE and Umicore

The energy transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources is at cruising speed. As the leader of this carbon-free transition, ENGIE already has 681 MW of installed renewable energy capacity in Belgium (solar, wind, biomass and hydropower), making it the largest green electricity producer in the country. 

The Vehicle To Grid technology, the future of electric cars?

The vehicle-to-grid (or V2G) technology allows plug-in electric vehicles to be connected with power grids and to communicate with them, through the use of a two-way charger. With this system, the power can thus flow either way: electricity produced by renewable energy sources can be extracted from the grid and then stored in the vehicles’ batteries, before finally, when needed, reintroduced into the grid.
