Researchers at MIT have created a new technique that allows the observation of a metal surface during hydrogen penetration—the process that results in embrittlement of the metal. The findings are published in a paper in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy. Courtesy of the researchers. —Kim and Tasan (2019).

A team at MITEI (MIT Energy Initiative) has found that hydrogen-generated electricity can be a cost-competitive option for backing up wind and solar. Applying the model, they found that the average LCOE associated with meeting this seasonal imbalance is $2400/MWh using a HFGT fueled with green hydrogen and $3000/MWh using a LI.

Findings by MIT researchers could help advance the commercialization of supercritical water technology for the desulfurization and upgrading of high-sulfur crude oil into high-value, cleaner fuels such as gasoline without using hydrogen—a major change in refining technology that would reduce costs, energy use, and CO 2 emissions.

By extending a 3-D reservoir model to include methods of sediment deposits, compaction, pressure development, and methane creation, the project will provide valuable insights on the formation of massive hydrate accumulations, the role of free gas in their persistence, and locations where these massive accumulations might be possible. ?DOE

One of the obstacles to commercializing hydrogen fuel cell vehicles is the cost of the fuel cells themselves. Gasteiger of MIT and M. Little is known about the molecular processes that might lead to Fe-N bond breaking, and our insight into the stability of the active sites is based only on trial and error. Science Vol.
