Tests conducted by Titirici Group , a multidisciplinary research team based at Imperial College London, have found that a novel carbon nanotube electrode material derived from CO 2 —produced by Estonian nanotech company UP Catalyst ( earlier post )—enhances the cyclability of sodium-ion batteries. From every 3.7

Researchers at the Leibnitz Institute for Catalysis (Rostock, Germany) have introduced a new approach to hydrogen storage that is based on simple salts of formic acid and carbonic acid. A fundamental problem with the use of these storage materials is the separation of the carbon dioxide formed when the hydrogen is released.

This investment is part of our ongoing strategy to put the UK at the forefront of low carbon vehicle technology. The work will help to accelerate the reduction of carbon emissions and deliver mass-market low carbon road vehicles within 5 to 15 years. Other projects include: TSB Low-Carbon Vehicle Technology Awards.
