By 2020 the Energy Superhub Oxford (ESO) consortium will launch the world’s largest lithium-ion/vanadium redox flow machine energy storage system (50 MW) and a network of around 100 ultra-rapid and fast charging stations connected directly to the extra-high voltage transmission system.
Money-saving ground source heat pumps will subsequently be installed in around 300 buildings and homes.
The project will showcase cutting-edge EV charging, energy storage systems, low carbon heating and smart energy management technologies.
Tom Hayes, executive board member for a safer and greener environment at Oxford City Council, said: “The City Council is working towards a Zero Carbon Oxford to tackle dangerous climate change in the time available to us to save the planet.
“Uniquely, this £41m once-in-a-generation downpayment on Oxford will move the Council closer to achieving this vision.
“This exciting project will enable the city council to install more electric vehicle charging points of the kind that charge vehicles quickest. Fleet News - Link - more like this (Superhub Oxford) - link
