Electrofuels approaches will use organisms able to extract energy from other sources, such as solar-derived electricity or hydrogen or earth-abundant metal ions. The critical barrier to wider deployment of electric vehicles is the high cost and low energy of today’s batteries. Electrofuels. BASF, LBNL, PNNL).

This research article focuses on a highly favored route to the synthesis of controlled nanostructures at high rate, high yield, and low cost by molten carbonate electrolysis. Addition of up to 50 mol% Na 2 CO 3 to a Li 2 CO 3 electrolyte decreases electrolyte costs and improves conditions for intercalation in Na-ion CNT anodes.

There are companies that are reinventing the lead-acid battery to make it more competitive with lithium-ion and nickel metal hydride in terms of storage capacity versus weight, durability, and cold weather performance. Wind, hydro, DC transmission lines, and smart grid electronics are also Portland strengths. — Larry 4.
