IBM and partners are working on solving one of the biggest barriers to widespread electric vehicle adoption: limited battery range. Under its Battery 500 project - an effort to build a battery capable of powering a car for 500 miles - Big Blue has designed a battery that produces power by taking in oxygen and then recharges itself by expelling oxygen.
The design allows EVs to be recharged for a range of 200 to 300 miles—and the battery can be recharged more than 2,500 times.
Collectively, their technology improves the efficiency of hydrogen production by 30%—and with a 50% reduction in costs as well.
Swarup Bhunia and engineers at the University of Florida, Gainesville are envisioning mobile vehicle-to-vehicle charging for EVs.
The 9-passenger electric airplane developed by aviation company magniX completed its first flight over Moses Lake, Washington earlier today.
The MIT researchers say that the average used car battery could provide up to a decade of backup storage for solar grids.
Simply by adding sugar, researchers have created a longer-lasting, lighter, more sustainable rival to the lithium-ion batteries.
Researchers at a US lab have passed a crucial milestone on the way to their ultimate goal of achieving self-sustaining nuclear fusion. Harnessing fusion - the process that powers the Sun - could provide an unlimited and cheap source of energy. Now, a breakthrough by scientists at the National Ignition Facility could boost hopes of scaling up fusion.
Nuclear fusion reactors are the key to unlimited clean energy, and two firms are racing to develop the first net-producing reactors.
A nuclear fusion reactor in China broke the world record for heating a plasma like an artificial sun to 120 million Celsius.
