How to Fast-Track Perovskite Solar Cells

Cars That Think

With the right composition, perovskites could be better than silicon at converting sunlight to electricity: they have a theoretical efficiency limit of 34 percent, compared with silicons 32 percent. But manufacturing high quality perovskites at a low cost has proven challenging.

Nuclear Fusion’s New Idea: An Off-the-Shelf Stellarator

Cars That Think

Researchers hope to capture this energy and use it to produce clean, zero-carbon electricity. And it’s become increasingly important as a rapidly warming climate and soaring electricity demand have made the need for stable, carbon-free power ever more acute. When we talk to electric utilities, that’s not actually what they want to buy.”

Pando’s minimalist solution allows more EV charging in less space at less cost

Charged EVs

Back in the previous century, we had to stop at gas stations to fuel our cars. Pando Electrics solution for multifamily properties provides simple, compact boxes equipped with standard NEMA 240-volt receptacles, and requires drivers to use the portable charging cables that come with their cars. Well, maybe not. Aaron Li: Yes and no.

Researchers use chemical looping process to produce hydrogen from hydrogen sulfide gas

Green Car Congress

Researchers at The Ohio State University have used a chemical looping process to produce hydrogen from hydrogen sulfide gas—commonly called “sewer gas”. Hydrogen sulfide is emitted from manure piles and sewer pipes and is a key byproduct of industrial activities including refining oil and gas, producing paper and mining.
