Study finds direct seawater splitting has substantial drawbacks to conventional water splitting, offers almost no advantage

Green Car Congress

To meet this challenge and to satisfy the constant energy demand of society, electricity must be stored in times of overproduction to provide energy when little sunshine and wind is available. To store the green electricity in a highly scalable way, it must be converted into chemical energy. Diess et al.

SoCalGas, H2U testing new Gramme 50 electroylzer for green hydrogen production

Green Car Congress

According to early analysis, the cost target of the new technology is half that of current electrolyzers and the total cost of ownership over its life is expected to be 75% less. The Gramme 50 electrolyzer features a radically different stack design to achieve high current density and outlet pressure requirements.

Harvard team demonstrates new metal-free organic–inorganic aqueous flow battery; potential breakthrough for low-cost grid-scale storage

Green Car Congress

Quinones are naturally abundant, inexpensive, small organic molecules, and similar to molecules that store energy in plants and animals. The technology could fundamentally transform the way electricity is stored on the grid, making power from renewable energy sources such as wind and sun far more economical and reliable. Background.

New hydrogen storage material could enable smaller, cheaper, more energy dense systems for vehicles; Kubas binding

Green Car Congress

It could enable the design of tanks that are smaller, cheaper, more convenient and energy dense than existing hydrogen fuel technologies, and significantly out-perform battery-powered vehicles. The KMH-1 material also absorbs and stores any excess energy so external heat and cooling is not needed.
