This ability to finely resolve relevant structures inside a dense, reactive gas-solid system is not only unique, but also necessary to accelerate the commercial deployment of advanced gasification technology. Multiphase refers to the process of changing a solid (in this case, coal) to a gas (syngas). NETL funded the research.

When we turn up the heat in our homes and workplaces, we must balance our personal need for warmth with the global impact of burning fossil fuels like oil, gas, coal, and biomass. Anthropogenic climate change confronts humanity with a challenge: How can we keep warm now as we try to prevent our world from overheating in the future?

The Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle with Long Electric Range (PHEVLER - pronounced “fevler”) is a new category emerging in the electric vehicle marketplace. PHEVLERs are defined as PHEVs with sufficient battery capacity for all electric driving of twice the average daily distance. [ and UC-Davis Emeritus and Bruce R.

That need for balance is true of electric power grids, too. Spiking demand for electric heat collided with supply problems created by frozen natural-gas equipment and below-average wind-power production. Packetized energy management (PEM) allows the power grid to flexibly handle a varying supply of renewable energy.

Given the heavy reliance of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations on electricity, ensuring the reliability and affordability of power is paramount. Moreover, due to rising demand, new emission regulation policies, and overdue infrastructure upgrades, the cost of electricity in many parts of North America continues to climb.

The PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), a subset of the electric car, combines a primary electric motor with a much smaller back-up engine fueled with a hydrocarbon/biofuel mix. (In In this paper PHEV refers solely to the long-range PHEV of 60 miles (100 km) electric-only range.) It is much more than that.

Within the US electric power sector the biggest question was whether the Production Tax Credits (PTC) were going to be extended beyond 2008. By the time REFF West occurred in October 2008 the climate had changed dramatically. Climate change projects had always had a stronger appeal to international investors than US investors.
