At the core of the hybrid system is Williams Hybrid Power’s (WHP) flywheel energy storage unit. This energy, otherwise lost as heat during braking, can be re-introduced into the driveline to save fuel, or bolster performance, both crucial parameters in endurance racing also having clear applicability to road car application.

The Climate Foundation , the Seattle-based company behind the project, has found that this deep cycling makes kelp grow three times as fast as it can when kept in shallow waters, as seaweed farmers do now. The Climate Foundation is one of several startups growing kelp to remove carbon dioxidefrom the ocean.
