One of the big winners was a technology called carbon capture and storage. And specifically, how do you apply recent advances in machine learning in the HPC to carbon capture? So Microsoft and them signed a contract to explore possibilities of how Microsoft can support the Northern Lights project as a technology partner.

NRC projections of number of PHEVs in the US light-duty fleet. Costs of light-duty plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are high—largely due to their lithium-ion batteries—and unlikely to drastically decrease in the near future, according to a new report from the National Research Council (NRC).

If these regional rollouts succeed, hydrogen FCVs might be just a few years behind plug-in vehicles in the commercialization process and might ultimately capture a larger share of the light-duty vehicle market. Several methods of producing hydrogen, including from renewable sources, provide the potential for even greater benefits.
