Big Delta will demonstrate that the new process at the core of its manufacturing technology is scalable, reliable and significantly reduces the cost of manufacturing high-performance Li-ion cells. This work will contribute to low-cost, metal bipolar-plate manufacturing processes and quality control system development.

Specifically, low cost and energy-efficient processes are sought that can be demonstrated and validated under field conditions to meet needs of the nascent algal biomass industry. Algae cultures tend to be relatively dilute, and the energy requirement to remove water from the cultures can be a significant portion of the energy balance.

OriginOil analysis suggests production cost as low as $2.28/gallon for algae-derived renewable gasoline or diesel using feedstock blending

Green Car Congress

points to a potential production cost as low as $2.28/gallon Liter) for gasoline or diesel using a blend of algae and waste feedstocks, using the latest growth, harvesting and fuel conversion technologies from OriginOil and other innovators. This cost roughly doubles to $5.44/gallon This cost roughly doubles to $5.44/gallon

Using the PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) to Transition Society Seamlessly and Profitably From Fossil Fuel to 100% Renewable Energy

Green Car Congress

The impetus for this change came from a study by the US Idaho National Lab [ 2 ]. The grid then becomes more efficient, thus reducing the cost of delivered electricity to everyone. (In In contrast, the fast-charging required by battery-only electric cars will decrease the UF and increase the cost of electric energy to everyone.).
