In July, the DOE announced that ARPA-E had received approximately 3,500 submissions for the approximately $150 million available as part of the first Funding Opportunity Announcement (DE-FOA-0000065) released 27 April 2009. The projects selected are grouped into 10 areas: Energy Storage (6 projects). Biomass Energy (5 projects).

Credit: ACS, Wang 2009. Researchers at the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have found that adding graphene—sheets made up of single carbon atoms—to titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) results in lithium-ion electrode materials that significantly outperform standard titanium dioxide materials.

The possibility of a flow-through mode for the cathode allows flexibility of the cell design for safe, large-capacity electrical-energy storage at an acceptable cost, they conclude. In theory, the specific energy of a lithium-oxygen (air) battery is 5200 W h kg -1. In 2009, US Energy Secretary Steven Chu named Dr. John B.

In April, Axion Power International Inc received an order from Norfolk Southern Corp (NS) for PbC lead-carbon batteries for use in an all-battery-powered switcher locomotive. PbC batteries are multi-celled asymmetrically supercapacitive lead-acid-carbon hybrid batteries. NS began working with Axion in October 2009. Source: NS.

The A123Systems project is pursuing a second-generation nanomaterial that would replace some or all of the iron in A123 cells with manganese, increasing the battery’s energy density and therefore reducing cost per watt-hour. Mass consumer applications would require a far more efficient and low-cost manufacturing technique.

DME is considered an ultra clean burning diesel fuel replacement as it does not produce any particulate emissions and can be manufactured at a low cost from a number of resources, including stranded natural gas, coal and biomass. Under the scheme, each proposal must request a minimum of $2million but not more than $25million.
