    By the way, you don't stop wind turbines if the demand is low, at least not in Sweden, you regulate by reducing hydro, since the ideal way to save money in the scandinavian energy system is to keep water in the reservoirs for as long as possible in the winter.

    The way to get a better result with an e-Golf. is to drive in cold temps like this, or perhaps 5C, and drive slower, so passive cooling still takes hold, but heat accumulates slower. That would strike a better balance, and net a faster overall result. 100 km/hr would be faster in the long run. Shorter charge stops (~20 minutes) will help too. He needed to use OBD11 to keep an eye on it. I've had one for 5 years, and it won't get over 35C if you push it less hard when it's around freezing. It won't rapid-gate at those temps.

    Having had the Kona only charge properly when the batteries are WARM enough, not too cold, I think the problem was that the batteries were too cold in the e-Golf. For instance I charged on Ionity after a gentle drive and got 45kW. I unplugged after 15 minutes, then plugged in again and got 76kW! During the day when it was warmer, you got higher charging rates. Needs to be warm, not cold, but not hot :)

I can understand why VW would make an early EV without an active cooling system, but not why Nissan after more than a decade of making the Leaf still doesn’t have it... Very interesting video though, it seems that the increased consumption in the cold really more than offset any benefit from better passive cooling.

Seems so, and will be another decision I will have to weigh when choosing my EV for next year.

    The wind turbines could be stopped due to ice detection, some older turbines like they are looking like are not equipped with a blade heating system. So it could happen when the temperature is around 0°C the moisture from the air freezes on the rotorblade. The danger is that when there is ice on the blades and the turbine is turning it throws with ice. That could be occurs some dangerous situations. Turbines nowadays are having a Blade Heating System, in which hot air is streaming through the rotor blades to avoid creating ice on the outside. It's just a guess, from weather conditions. It could also happens that the grid operator is stopping the turbines, due to enough energy in the grid. When there is too much energy in the grid it could be break down and creating blackouts. Just my second idea.

    There's a paper mill in Varberg, by the way. They can give off a characteristic smell under some circumstances. In the past they let smelly gases straight out, these days they usually burn it in an afterburner (actually called that) to reduce the inconvenience to the surroundings. In some circumstances these systems don't work though, and a sort of umami smell but more unpleasant escapes. It's not dangerous, but it smells bad. Paper mill workers often say that "it smells like money".

    Wind turbines might be turned of from demand BUT it might also be that they can't turn no more. There are cables going from the top and if the wind is constantly changing direction and it keeps turning the same way to catch wind it goes to a point where it can't turn anymore and then you have to shut them down and slowly turn them back the other way so the cables inside are straight again. Ofc it can be many other things too, maybe the wind is incoming from a direction which is causing turbulence to the turbines behind, then you can't use them.

    I wonder how the heatpump works in the e-Golf. If it uses real AC for defogging/drying air then the heatpump can't be active at the same time since it's AC in reverse from my knowledge. It must the use the resistive heater which is far less efficient down to about - 5C than the HP. In the Kia Soul AC is always of when heat pump is active, if I enable defogging HP turns of and consumption increases.

    So, if you were to take this VW e-golf on a long distance trip, in order to allow for the battery not to heat up too much, and allow for faster charging ,you can't drive, say at 110 or 120 km/hr. ? You have to drive slower, like at 85-95 km/hr? That is not good. It would take a lot longer to get to where you want to go. Yes, you can save more energy and allow for faster charging but, when you have have a long road trip ahead of you, you want to be able to drive at higher speeds and still get that faster charging. Is the e-golf batteries not liquid cooled?
