Industry experts predict that electric vehicles (EV) will account for 40% of car sales by 2030. Yet for all the optimism around the electric vehicle adoption rate, certain human, structural and environmental factors still dictate the pace. Of the 289 million cars registered on US roads, barely 2 million are electric.

Research focuses on supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO 2 ) Brayton-cycle turbines, which typically would be used for bulk thermal and nuclear generation of electricity, including next-generation power reactors. The Brayton cycle could yield 20 MW of electricity from a package with a volume as small as four cubic meters.

Other work focuses on sodium as an earth-abundant alternative to lithium, but while it could lower cost, sodium ions also carry just a single charge. This allows storage of charge at a higher volumetric or gravimetric density, which translates to a higher stored energy density or storage capacity for a given size or weight.
