Solar cells on vehicles can take the pressure off the grid in Europe

A study by Fraunhofer ISE found that integrating solar cells onto electric vehicles could significantly reduce the strain on Europe's power grid. By 2030, vehicle-integrated photovoltaics (VIPV) could feed up to 34 terawatt-hours of electricity annually into the grid, helping to balance energy demand and supply, especially during peak daytime hours.
