Boltzmann energy overview?
…40.7 kJ/mol (or 6.8 x 10^-20 per water molecule). This same principle is also used in manufacturing lithium ion batteries, where solvents (such as NMP) must be evaporated below their…
DAC to the future?
…and 500kWh/ton in the 2030s. Five opportunities excite us and warrant partial de-risking in this 19-page report. Could DAC even beat batteries and hydrogen in smoothing renewable-heavy grids? $599.00 – Purchase Checkout…
Verdox: DAC technology breakthrough?
This data-file reviews Verdox DAC technology, optimizing polyanthraquinones and polynaphthoquinones, then depositing them on porous carbon nanotube scaffolds, using similar methods to lithium ion batteries. These quinones are shown to…
Storage tank costs: storing oil, energy, water and chemicals?
…chains, and in several types of new energies such as redox flow batteries or pumped hydro. We also think that some industrial facilities may be able to benefit from increasingly…
Global tin demand: upside in energy transition?
…Demand forecasts can be stress-tested in the data-file, varying with GDP (chart below), future growth of solar, EVs and digital devices, phasing out of lead acid batteries for other battery…
Thermal energy storage: leading companies?
This data-file is a screen of thermal energy storage companies, developing systems that can absorb excess renewable electricity, heat up a storage medium, and then re-release the heat later, for…
Thermal energy storage: cost model?
This data-file captures the costs of thermal energy storage, buying renewable electricity, heating up a storage media, then releasing the heat for industrial, commercial or residential use. Our base case…
New energies: filter feeder?
…of new energies are non-linear, injecting distortion to power grids. Harmonic distortion caused by DC devices are discussed on pages 7-8, including the signatures of electric vehicle chargers, grid-scale batteries,…
