Energy storage: the key to a decarbonised future

Setec Powerr

We are transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, and the use of energy storage is becoming more widespread. And with the popularity of electric vehicles, the grid is under more and more pressure, so the demand for energy storage is growing. Battery storage.

Researchers develop wave-energy-driven CO2 reduction system for production of carbon-based liquid fuels

Green Car Congress

The system consists of three components: the spring-assisted spherical TENG; an energy storage circuit with rectifiers and a supercapacitor; and a two-electrode electrochemical cell for CO 2 RR and OER. This type of TENG is more cost-effective compared to conventional EMG-based wave energy converters. Leung et al.

U Waterloo team shows four-electron conversion for Li-O2 batteries for high energy density; inorganic molten salt electrolyte, high temperature

Green Car Congress

The new work, published in Science , shows that four-electron conversion for lithium-oxygen electrochemistry is highly reversible. The Waterloo team is the first to achieve four-electron conversion, which doubles the electron storage of lithium-oxygen, also known as lithium-air, batteries. —Linda Nazar. Resources.

Georgia Tech team develops conversion-type iron-fluoride Li battery cathode with solid polymer electrolyte

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Georgia Tech have developed a promising new conversion-type cathode and electrolyte system that replaces expensive metals and traditional liquid electrolyte with lower cost transition metal fluorides and a solid polymer electrolyte. A paper on their work is published in the journal Nature Materials.

Univ. of Surrey researchers to develop Li-CO2 battery technology

Green Car Congress

Crucially, the research will look to achieve a breakthrough in efficient CO 2 fixation to store energy. The high charge potential and unclear reaction mechanisms of current Li-CO 2 batteries results in poor reversibility and short cycle life. However, the development of Li-CO 2 batteries is still in its infancy stage.

New plasma synthesis process for one-step conversion of CO2 and methane into higher value fuel and chemicals

Green Car Congress

Instead of using H 2 , direct conversion of CO 2 with CH 4 (dry reforming of methane, DRM) to liquid fuels and chemicals (e.g. wind and solar power) to act as an efficient chemical energy storage localized or distributed system. acetic acid) represents another promising route for both CO 2 valorisation and CH 4 activation.
