Toyota, Panasonic and Hitachi are working together on the smart grid - efficient energy without CO2 emissions

Cologne. The Japanese industrial giant Toyota, Panasonic and Hitachi have joined with Japan Wind Development given the green light to a demonstration project of a smart grid knows. The project in Rokkasho Village in Aomori Prefecture of Japan was used to test more efficient energy technologies with zero CO2 emissions. Only renewable energy sources are used, such as saving energy in the world the first wind power and photovoltaic systems have produced particularly large batteries.

To build the smart grid include adjusting to the power infrastructure in the region and the establishment of a plant for the production of renewable energy, electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles, storage batteries for use at home, Eco Cut (a system Electric heating water) and heating storage unit. The test is also a field line 8 km long in the usual beside the driver and fiber optic cable for fast data transfer linked. For the new methods of power distribution and breakthroughs in information technology and communication to enhance the prospects of a new relationship, optimized supply and demand of electricity. It is free of CO2 supply households with energy and the perfect integration of electric and hybrid models of the Smart Grid.

Toyota has built together with partners JWD, Panasonic Electric Works, Hitachi isolated from the main power network in Rokkasho Village. There are excellent conditions for the use of wind energy, there is also the largest capacity of wind power plants in Japan that is. The project will run from September 2010 to July 2012 and contribute to the rapid commercialization of the system in Japan and overseas markets. Toyota will test the project, the Toyota Smart System Center (TSC) for intelligent building control. The system regulates the electrical energy storage batteries and electric water heater Eco Cut taking into account the consumption patterns and charging states. In addition, the process control loading plug-in hybrid vehicles and energy storage and is being tested. Other components of the project, the Toyota Smart Vision (TSV) is a tool for communities to monitor power conditions, monitors the energy management system for smart homes and new meters for the administration of units of vehicles.
