Stanford team develops ultra-fast aluminum-ion battery with stability over thousands of cycles

Green Car Congress

A team at Stanford University, led by professor Hongjie Dai, has developed a high-performance, safe, fast-charging aluminum-ion battery that can last for thousands of cycles. Aluminum has long been an attractive material for batteries, mainly because of its low cost, low flammability and high-charge storage capacity.

KAUST team alters atomic composition of MoS2 to boost performance as water-splitting catalyst for H2 production

Green Car Congress

This technique may also have potential benefits for other manufacturing industries. Two-dimensional layered transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials such as Molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) have been recognized as one of the low-cost and efficient electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER).

1.136 billion in turnover, 6.7 per cent more customers and 247 new products at the Hannover Messe | Autocar Professional

Baua Electric

More favourable and better solutions for lubrication-free movements, low-cost automation and CO2-reducing products are the focal points. Following the breakthrough to the first billion euros in sales in 2022, igus set a new target: one million industrial customers per year. At the time, this represented a 5.5-fold fold increase.

UK Carbon Trust report says fuel cell vehicles could take more than 30% of mid-sized car market by 2050

Green Car Congress

It would also reduce global carbon emissions from vehicles by an additional 260 million tonnes per year by 2050—equivalent to the current annual emissions of Taiwan. Our new analysis shows that the future is bright but innovation is essential to unlock the market potential by driving down the costs of new polymer fuel cells.

Stanford team reports new low-cost, non-precious metal catalyst for water splitting with performance close to platinum

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Stanford University, with colleagues at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and other institutions, have developed a nickel-based electrocatalyst for low-cost water-splitting for hydrogen production with performance close to that of much more expensive commercial platinum electrocatalysts.

as early as 2050 , according to a recent study by the National Security College of the Australian National University, in Canberra. This timing is particularly significant because the enormous costs required to design and build a submarine are meant to be spread out over at least 60 years. It may come. Meanwhile, the U.S.
