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. Yes, if you look at the form factor, it is an outlet, so it has all the advantages over an EV charger, such as small size, low cost and zero maintenance. However, those who think outside the box (Remember that tired old phrase? Well, maybe not.

Stanford researchers make ammonia from air and water microdroplets

Green Car Congress

Stanford researchers, with a colleague from King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, have developed a simple and environmentally sound way to make ammonia with tiny droplets of water and nitrogen from the air. This gas–liquid–solid heterogeneous catalytic system synthesizes ammonia in 0.2 The conversion rate reaches 32.9 ± 1.38

Bio-inspired molybdenum sulfide catalyst offers low-cost and efficient photo-electrochemical water splitting to produce hydrogen

Green Car Congress

The optimized photo-electrochemical water splitting device uses light absorbers made of silicon arranged in closely packed pillars, dotted with tiny clusters of the new molybdenum sulfide catalyst. An alternative, clean method is to make hydrogen fuel from sunlight and water via a photo-electrochemical (PEC, or water-splitting) process.

EPFL team develops low-cost water splitting cell with solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of 12.3%

Green Car Congress

Michael Grätzel at EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) in Switzerland has developed a highly efficient and low-cost water-splitting cell combining an advanced perovskite tandem solar cell and a bi-functional Earth-abundant catalyst. Splitting water requires an applied voltage of at least 1.23 V and up to 1.5
