Penn State, FSU team develops low-cost, efficient layered heterostructure catalyst for water-splitting

Green Car Congress

A team of scientists from Penn State and Florida State University have developed a lower cost and industrially scalable catalyst consisting of synthesized stacked graphene and W x Mo 1–x S 2 alloy phases that produces pure hydrogen through a low-energy water-splitting process.

Ionova Technologies says ZIP-Cap ultracapacitors can offer 5x increase in energy density and 25x reduction in build cost (updated with graphic)

Green Car Congress

Asymmetric ultracapacitors based on non-aqueous electrolytes provide improvements in energy density but they typically do so at the expense of power density while providing no improvement in cost, safety or in environmental impact. And this chemistry and architecture allow low-cost, ultra large scale manufacturing.

ARPA-E Selects 37 Projects for $106M in Funding in Second Round; Electrofuels, Better Batteries and Carbon Capture

Green Car Congress

This project will develop and optimize a novel, engineered microorganism that produces a biodiesel-equivalent fuel from renewable hydrogen and carbon dioxide, at costs of less than $2.50 Water will be the primary byproduct. A novel metal complex for electrolysis of water will be used to generate the hydrogen at high rates.
