Nuclear Fusion’s New Idea: An Off-the-Shelf Stellarator

Cars That Think

Researchers hope to capture this energy and use it to produce clean, zero-carbon electricity. The pursuit of energy production through nuclear fusion is considered by many to be the holy grail of clean energy. PPPL’s new reactor is the first stellarator built at this government lab in 50 years.

How the transition from graphite to silicon anode batteries will revolutionize the EV industry

Charged EVs

Scaling silicon battery production is the main hurdlealthough silicon is abundantly available, expanding the manufacturing infrastructure to meet global demand will take years or even decades. The companys manufacturing process consists of two main steps: creating a carbon scaffold and exposing that scaffold to silane for silicon deposition.
