3 winners of DOE’s “America’s Next Top Energy Innovator” Challenge: hydrogen-assisted lean-burn engines, graphene for Li-air and -sulfur batteries, and titanium process

Green Car Congress

Umpqua Energy’s EVOPAC system combines an advanced hydrogen-injection system using a plasma reformer with a DeNOx Catalyst. The plasma reformer, installed into the engine compartment, convert fuel into hydrogen. The US Department of Energy (DOE) is now kicking off a second year of “America’s Next Top Energy Innovator.”.

Aqua Metals is building a more sustainable battery recycling ecosystem

Charged EVs

The company is building a new plant in Nevada, and aims to be processing 10,000 tons of black mass (equivalent to about 150,000 EV battery packs) annually by 2025. We take that black mass as the input to our process, which is then powered by 100% renewable, carbon-free energy. There’s nothing that’s really running at commercial scale.

WattEV aims to operate 12,000 electric trucks-as-a-service and a charging network to support them by 2030

Charged EVs

Electrifying commercial vehicles is a critical part of reducing emissions, so it’s frustrating that the pace of fleet electrification has been so slow. Viable commercial EVs have been around for years, but fleet operators insisted on conducting years-long pilots to prove their reliability. megawatt-hours of capacity. Salim: Yes.
