Berkeley Lab hosted a battery research workshop last week to explore what role researchers in the University of California (UC) system can play in bridging the gap between science research and technology deployment of new batteries. The workshop addressed the need for energy storage for both transportation and the grid.

Energy loss that occurs during power conversion is equivalent to the daily output of 318 coal plants, and costs the US economy $40 billion per year. Its ARPA-E project seeks to enable compact motor drives and grid-tied inverters operating at high power (3-10 kW) with efficiency greater than 96%. At APEC, startup Transphorm Inc.
My Energi
MARCH 7, 2023
Zero fossil fuels, zero reliance on the grid, zero emissions travel. Rather than a fairytale story dreamt up in a shiny glass city-centre skyscraper, the idea behind myenergi came from a conversation over a bottle of wine. I’m so proud of what we’ve achieved and want to help more people live with less reliance on the grid.
