Later in the program, teams that move to Phase 2 will focus on building components, unit operations, and prototype systems to reduce technical risks and costs. In FLECCS Phase 2, up to $31 million in additional funding will be available for teams. The team’s approach uses a novel and low-cost heat-pump thermal storage system.

Earlier this month, researchers from MIT said they had developed a process that within three years could lead to electric car batteries able to recharge in as little as five minutes. The thing that bothers me the most about Tesla is not the range or cost of driving an EV. Electrical safety can be engineered in whatever voltage is used.
