New long-duration, extended capacity Na-Al battery design for grid storage

Green Car Congress

The new battery design could help ease integration of renewable energy into the electrical grid at lower cost, using Earth-abundant metals, according to a study just published in Energy Storage Materials. Compared with a seasonal battery, this new design is especially adept at short- to medium-term grid energy storage over 12 to 24 hours.

IEA: governments must act to ensure sufficient supply of critical minerals to meet net-zero goals

Green Car Congress

A typical electric car requires six times the mineral inputs of a conventional car, and an onshore wind plant requires nine times more mineral resources than a similarly sized gas-fired power plant. Wind takes the lead, bolstered by material-intensive offshore wind. Source: IEA. Source: IEA.

Rystad Energy expects strong growth in hydrogen pipelines through 2035

Green Car Congress

Hydrogen pipelines are already used to supply industrial hubs (at petrochemical plants for example). Europe, with its extensive gas grid, is well placed to make the jump. Mt of local supply with startup by 2030 (or only 2.1 Switching infrastructure from gas to hydrogen is possible and cost effective. Additionally, 3.4
