FLECCS Phase 1 teams will design, model, and optimize CCS processes that enable flexibility on a high-VRE grid. Later in the program, teams that move to Phase 2 will focus on building components, unit operations, and prototype systems to reduce technical risks and costs. Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

The MIT Energy Initiative (MITEI) has released a report on the proceedings—and papers that informed those proceedings—of the 8 April 2010 symposium on The Electrification of the Transportation System: Issues and Opportunities. The symposium was sponsored by the MIT Energy Initiative, together with Ormat, Hess, Cummins and Entergy.

ONE’s early packs will consist of lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) cells, along with cells using an experimental high-energy-density chemistry based on a proprietary material rich in manganese with a bare copper current collector known as an “anode-free” design. The challenge is that anode-free cells still have low cycle life.
