Statkraft is evaluating a new flow battery based on table salt to pull more wind and solar power into the grid.
A $24 million investment in new long duration energy storage technology gives Cummins yet another reason to support the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.
More bad news for oil (and gas) stakeholders: US Energy Department charts the path to low-cost electric vehicles with new energy storage technology.
Carbon capture is still alive and kicking, thanks in part to new systems that use carbon dioxide to generate electricity and produce sustainable hydrogen.
The US Energy Department has been steaming full speed ahead on cutting edge energy storage technology, and the latest development is one of those environmental twofers we love. A $1 million grant from the agency will help a company called Saratoga Energy to bridge the gap between its labwork and a low cost, high efficiency energy storage technology ideal for electric vehicles — without the carbon footprint, too.
Researchers are beginning to nudge lithium-ion energy storage aside with a new breakthrough for batteries based on cheap, plentiful sodium.
The energy storage field could shift in a whole new direction, according to an OSU research team that has developed a new hydronium-ion battery.
The UK energy storage innovator Faradion ups the ante with a new marketing and development partnership for its sodium ion technology.
Researchers at Germany’s Karlsruhe Institute of Technology have come up with an energy storage solution that could make good use of waste from the country’s apple processing industry. They have found that leftover apple waste has “excellent” electrochemical properties for use in sodium-ion batteries, when reduced to a carbon material. … [continued]
