Rechargeable membrane-less hydrogen bromine flow battery shows high power density

Green Car Congress

Low-cost energy storage remains a critical unmet need for a wide range of applications, including grid scale frequency regulation, load following, contingency reserves and peak shaving, as well as portable power systems. A paper on the work is published in Nature Communications. Without a membrane, however, that is not an issue.

Stanford scientists identify new Li-B-S solid electrolyte materials that boost lithium-ion battery performance

Green Car Congress

Stanford University scientists have identified a new solid-state Li-ion electrolyte predicted to exhibit simultaneously fast ionic conductivity, wide electrochemical stability, low cost, and low mass density. However, we predict that electrolyte materials synthesized from a range of compositions in the Li?B?S

Using the PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) to Transition Society Seamlessly and Profitably From Fossil Fuel to 100% Renewable Energy

Green Car Congress

In this paper PHEV refers solely to the long-range PHEV of 60 miles (100 km) electric-only range.) The PHEV does not require the heavy, costly batteries required by other electric cars, nor does it suffer from a limited range or poor freeway performance. It offers a range of elegant solutions to a number of problems.
