DOE awards $2M to Ohio University to develop products for energy storage and motors from coal waste

Green Car Congress

The Department of Energy (DOE) is funding six research and development projects that will repurpose domestic coal resources for high-value graphitic products and carbon-metal composites that can be employed in clean energy technologies. Understanding ultra-conductive carbon metal composite wire for electric motors. Earlier post.)

Bosch to receive €160.7M in funding to support scale-up of solid-oxide fuel cell system production

Green Car Congress

The aim of the funding project is to ensure the mass production and series ramp-up of the decentralized SOFC technology up to the start of series production. The heart of the system is the SOFC stack, where chemical energy is converted into electrical energy. A hotbox will contain several stacks.

C2CNT process converts flue gas from natural gas power plant into carbon nanotubes

Green Car Congress

On 26 July, the first flue gas from the natural gas power plant, the Shepard Energy Center in Calgary, Canada, was directly transformed by the C2CNT process ( earlier post ) into carbon nanotubes. C2CNT is rolling out its carbon nanotube products and licensing its carbon capture technology. Left and center. Earlier post.).

Researchers use chemical looping process to produce hydrogen from hydrogen sulfide gas

Green Car Congress

Researchers at The Ohio State University have used a chemical looping process to produce hydrogen from hydrogen sulfide gas—commonly called “sewer gas”. Hydrogen sulfide is emitted from manure piles and sewer pipes and is a key byproduct of industrial activities including refining oil and gas, producing paper and mining.

Energy Vault to provide 1.6 GWh of gravity energy storage to support DG Fuels SAF projects

Green Car Congress

The system uses proprietary technology to autonomously orchestrate the lifting and lowering of the bricks, storing the potential energy in the elevation gain, and generating then discharging electricity as the bricks are lowered. DGF replaces the coal gasification used by others with biomass gasification and natural gas reforming.
