The Advanced Research Projects Agency - Energy (ARPA-E) has awarded $3 million from its 2015 OPEN funding to a project to develop an all-solid-state sodium battery. A sodium-based battery, on the other hand, has the potential to store larger amounts of electrical energy at a significantly lower cost. Led by Steve W.

The strongest and most commercially successful permanent magnets yet invented, neodymium iron boron, have energy products in the range of 30 to 55 MGOe. Permanent magnets inside the rotor interact with a rotating magnetic field created by electromagnet windings in the stator, which surrounds the rotor.

It is generous to say that an acre of Iowa can provide 12,500 miles per year at a cost of 10 cents each. In the commercial sector, and in the case of community solar, there is more flexibility and tracking arrays may make sense, especially when mounted on the ground. What this country needed was a good 5-cent kWh, and now we have it.
