The demand for electric vehicles and solar power has skyrocketed, and with that has come an increase in demand for a critical component of those sustainable technologies, batteries. Learn more about today's energy storage landscape and why investing in lithium mining might just be as profitable as mining for bitcoin.…
Cleantech innovation doesn't just green-up your electricity bill, it also cleans the air you breathe and the food you eat.
Argonne National Labs, JCESR, Clean Energy Trust, the Polsky Innovation Center and many other institutions have been working together to advance primary research on energy storage. Much progress has been made - and many lessons have been learned.
Anyone who has ever dropped a cell phone in the sink will tell you that electrical devices and water do not go together. However, a new study has shown that conventional wisdom may not hold on the molecular scale in some beyond-lithium-ion batteries.
We rarely think about the grid except when it fails. As renewables continue their meteoric rise we need to think about how we can modernize our grid to accomodate these new clean energy sources
Two new innovations at JCESR help push the next generation of batteries forward.
JCESR is running the battery technology race, and recent experiments with new materials to improve existing processes are giving them an edge.
Some people love it, some people hate it, but everyone seems to be talking about it. So what's so special about Tesla's new home battery?
Clean Energy Trust recently attended the Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) Innovation Summit in Washington DC. The summit calls on academia, government and business to tackle advanced energy solutions through collaborative relationships.
