Existing hydrogen vehicles are equipped with a reinforced tank that is fueled at a pressure of 700 bar. This tank feeds a fuel cell that converts the hydrogen into [...]
A new machine learning algorithm is poised to help urban transportation analysts relieve bottlenecks and chokepoints that routinely snarl city traffic. The tool, called [...]
Bertrand Piccard makes no apologies for being an aviation enthusiast, and believes that despite its current woes the industry has been made a scapegoat for carbon emissions, [...]
Global air travel consumes more than 100 billion gallons of jet fuel annually. That’s expected to more than double by 2025 to 230 billion gallons. Despite the current [...]
Air travel emissions have a huge negative impact on the environment due to greenhouse gas emissions from traditional jet fuel. As a result, there is a high demand for [...]
Lithium-ion batteries are ubiquitous, used in numerous applications such as cell phones, laptops, and electric vehicles. But they are made from materials, such as cobalt and [...]
Most of us have probably not thought about cracking the code of “traffic management” inside a lithium ion battery. But a team of researchers at Brookhaven [...]
A cost-effective new electrolyte invented by Stanford University scientists could pave the way for the next generation of battery-powered electric vehicles by reducing weight [...]
The same material you’ll find at the tip of a pencil—graphite—has long been a key component in today’s lithium-ion batteries. As our reliance on these [...]
One of the exciting parts of my job is mentoring young start-ups in the cleantech space, both in Silicon Valley and elsewhere. The activity has allowed me to keep my finger [...]
