Utrecht - Solar car charging
Utrecht’s two-way solar charging scheme is the first of its kind in Europe. It enables local producers of solar energy to store excess power in electric car batteries, and redistribute this power back into homes or the grid as necessary. With one in 20 houses in Utrecht already fitted with solar panels, the system means unused energy can be stored and distributed where it’s most needed. The scheme, led by local company LomboXnet together with a number of partners, including the city council, is deploying further solar panels and a network of shared electric vehicles so everyone can benefit.
