Researchers at the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) and US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have developed a lithium-air battery with a solid electrolyte. This chemical sequence stores and releases energy on demand. —co-author Rachid Amine More electrons stored means higher energy density.

EIA projects its wider use could result in EOR providing 33% of total domestic onshore production by 2035, while helping store millions of tons of CO 2 emissions from power plants and industrial sources. Current methods such as microseismic monitoring are valuable, but they can be expensive and are not applicable in some environments.
