Produced with fossil-free electricity in northern Sweden, the cell’s carbon footprint is approximately one-third that of a comparative industry reference. In 2017, Scania and Northvolt joined forces to develop and commercialize a world-leading battery cell for heavy commercial vehicles.

The goal is to use the pre-commercial facility as a reference for rolling out commercial refineries with a capacity of possibly hundreds of thousands of tons per year of an advanced sustainable marine biofuel for ships. GoodFuels intends to market the pilot volumes produced to further strengthen the commercial business case.

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have developed a nanometric graphite-like anode for sodium ion (Na + storage), formed by stacked graphene sheets functionalized only on one side, termed Janus graphene. The estimated sodium storage up to C 6.9 Na is comparable to graphite for standard lithium ion batteries.

Researchers in Sweden and Spain have devised a three-step process for the conversion of precipitated kraft lignin from black liquor into green diesel. Since black liquor is derived from wood, it is the most important renewable bio-fuel, particularly in Sweden and Finland. Their paper appears in the journal ChemSusChem. Earlier post.)

Instead, go buy yourself a commercial “air-source” heat pump, which will warm your home using the very same principle. The ratio of the heat released into your home to the energy sent into its electrically driven compressor is referred to as the coefficient of performance , or COP for short. Don’t actually do this, of course.

Commercial traffic accounts for 30 to 40 per cent of total carbon dioxide emissions from road transport. For the test, Mats Lidbeck from SP (the Technical Research Institute of Sweden) was on location both at the test track and in the workshop when the tests were carried out. The rigs each weighed 40 tonnes gross.

NASA research engineer Ryan McClelland calls these 3D-printed components, which he designed using commercial AI software, “evolved structures.” The phrase refers to how the AI software iterates through design mutations and converges on high-performing designs. We plan to build such a robot in my lab at Uppsala University , in Sweden.
