The funds will be used to develop novel membranes and lithium-metal anodes for the next generation of high-energy-density, low-cost batteries. Those inactive materials are expensive and wasteful. Using thick electrodes, the cell also stores more energy, bettering the performance of the battery as well as its cost.

While rechargeable batteries are the solution of choice for consumer-level use, they are impractical for grid-scale consideration. Molten-salt batteries , as the name implies, use a liquid, molten-salt electrolyte, which freezes at room temperature, allowing the batteries to be stored in an inactive state.

This process is less than 1% efficient at converting sunlight to stored chemical energy. The team anticipates at least a twofold productivity improvement over current levels and a cost that can be competitive with gasoline. Lawrence Berkeley National Lab.

Together, our inventions achieve what lithium-ion has yet to do—meet the ultra-low cost targets of the grid and transportation industries. By 2020 our battery costs will be less than $100 a kilowatt-hour (kWh). Those inactive materials are expensive and wasteful. Earlier post.). Flexible and modular. Brunini, W.

Also, the system can provide backup electricity during an outage and, during normal operation, allow customers to draw on the stored energy to reduce both their peak electric grid demand and the utility charges associated with peak demand.

Zhang proposed the concept of the SFCV in a paper in the RSC journal Energy & Environmental Science in 2009 to address problems such as high-density hydrogen storage in FCV, low-cost sustainable hydrogen production, costly hydrogen distribution infrastructure, and safety. indirect costs (e.g., and hidden costs (e.g.,

The projects are funded through ARPA-E’s two newest programs, Advanced Research In Dry cooling (ARID) and Accelerating Low-cost Plasma Heating and Assembly (ALPHA), which both seek to develop low-cost technology solutions. These projects have been selected for negotiation of awards; final award amounts may vary.
