ARPA-E Selects 37 Projects for $106M in Funding in Second Round; Electrofuels, Better Batteries and Carbon Capture

Green Car Congress

This process is less than 1% efficient at converting sunlight to stored chemical energy. This project will develop and optimize a novel, engineered microorganism that produces a biodiesel-equivalent fuel from renewable hydrogen and carbon dioxide, at costs of less than $2.50 per gallon. Water will be the primary byproduct.

IBM Almaden Researchers Say Li-Air Batteries Offer Promise for Transition to Electrified Transportation, But Face Challenges and Multi-Decade Development Cycle

Green Car Congress

Considerations for Li-air systems include: Power density and cost. While Li-air systems offer the promise of very high energy densities, their power density is currently very low. Prototype aprotic Li-air cells deliver current densities in the order of 1 mA/cm 2. Wilcke (2010) Lithium-Air Battery: Promise and Challenges.
