It’s also adding a battery pack assembly line, with batteries being supplied by Toyota Battery Manufacturing North Carolina. In October 2023, Toyota announced it would invest an additional $8 billion in its North Carolina EV battery plant, which it first announced in December 2021, to make batteries for its EVs and PHEVs.

Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a highly effective new perovskite-promoted iron oxide redox catalyst for a hybrid solar-redox scheme they had proposed earlier for partial oxidation and water-splitting of methane. Schematic of the hybrid process for liquid fuel and hydrogen generation.

Researchers at North Carolina State University and Duke University have shown that a one-atom thick film of molybdenum sulfide (MoS 2 ) may work as an effective catalyst for creating hydrogen. The work, published in the ACS journal Nano Letters , thus opens the door for less expensive hydrogen production.

Researchers from the University of North Carolina have synthesized high-photovoltage multijunction Si nanowires (SiNWs) that are co-functionalized to split water catalytically. When integrated with the co-catalysts and suspended in water, these light-activated nanoreactors produced hydrogen gas under visible and infrared light.
