Using a new metric—“Energy Stored on Invested, ESOI”—they concluded that batteries were the worst performers, while compressed air energy storage (CAES) performed the best, followed by pumped hydro storage (PHS). When demand is high, the water is released through turbines that generate electricity. —Charles Barnhart.

The market will receive a boost from new diesel locomotive emissions regulations scheduled to go into effect in the European Union in 2014 and in North America in 2015, which will require diesel locomotives to receive substantial changes or exhaust treatments. Other benefits include reduced noise levels and lower maintenance costs.

The SkyMine plant, which will be retrofit to the Capitol Aggregates Cement plant, is expected to directly capture 83,000 tons of CO 2 from the cement plant’s emissions. The captured pollutants are mineralized into solid products, including sodium bicarbonate, which are stored, transported and sold as safe, stable solids.

EPA’s newly released voluminous final Clean Power Plan rule ( earlier post ) has established the first national standards to limit CO 2 emissions from fossil-fuel-fired power plants (Electric Generating Units, EGUs), with a target of a 32% reduction against a 2005 baseline by 2030. The actual text of the CPP rule is, however, more reserved.

Using lead batteries in start-stop or micro-hybrid systems can result in emission savings of between 700-1600 kg CO 2 equivalent over a vehicle’s lifetime. In full-hybrid vehicles, the stored energy is also used for a certain range of electric driving. Other battery technologies (nickel-metal hydride, lead-based etc.)

Energy storage is storing energy through a medium or device and releasing it when needed. The benefits of liquid flow batteries are a flexible layout, long cycle life, fast response times, and no harmful emissions; the disadvantage is that the energy density varies greatly. Classification of energy storage. What is a battery?

The companys plan is to electrochemically strip carbon dioxide out of the ocean, store or use the CO 2 , and then return the water to the sea, where it will naturally absorb more CO 2 from the air. The bioengineering strategies its deploying aim to accelerate what the oceans already do: absorb carbon emissions on a massive scale.

This enhances fuel efficiency and reduces emissions. The result is more even and consistent cooling, which enhances performance, and faster engine warmup, which improves cold-start efficiency and reduces emissions. That means less exhaust energy—which spins the turbines—is wasted in stored inertial loads.

This allows storage of charge at a higher volumetric or gravimetric density, which translates to a higher stored energy density or storage capacity for a given size or weight. Other work focuses on sodium as an earth-abundant alternative to lithium, but while it could lower cost, sodium ions also carry just a single charge.
