Heliogen, a company that is transforming sunlight to create and replace fuels, recently announced its launch and also said that it has—for the first time commercially—concentrated solar energy to exceed temperatures greater than 1,000 degrees Celsius. But electricity accounts for less than a quarter of global energy demand.

The project includes genetic modifications of bacteria that metabolize carbon dioxide, oxygen, and hydrogen to produce butanol; development of an industrially scalable bioreactor system; and a novel approach to recovery of butanol from the bioreactor. The project also will develop a chemical method to transform butanol into jet fuel.

Together, our inventions achieve what lithium-ion has yet to do—meet the ultra-low cost targets of the grid and transportation industries. By 2020 our battery costs will be less than $100 a kilowatt-hour (kWh). The semisolid thick electrode is a material science innovation originating in Dr. Chiang’s lab at MIT.

A team of researchers at MIT has described a framework for efficiently coupling the power output of a series-connected string of single-band-gap solar cells to an electrochemical process that produces storable fuels. The original demonstration leaf in 2011 had low efficiencies, converting less than 4.7% Source: Winkler et al.

We and others at our company, Analog Photonics , which spun out of MIT in 2016, hope to break this impasse. We are developing a tiny, chip-scale phased-array lidar that promises to slash costs and simplify integration. Carmakers are looking for high-performance, long-range lidar sensors that will cost them less than $500 each.

Steven Kaye: ONE’s anode-free cell advantages include high energy density (thin lithium metal anode), low cost (no anode present during cell assembly, low-cost liquid electrolyte), and abundant raw materials (mostly manganese, zero cobalt). The challenge is that anode-free cells still have low cycle life.
