Duke researchers boost electrolyzer productivity with microfibrous flow-through electrode; 12.5- to 50-times greater than conventional

Green Car Congress

The nickel foam electrode was best at letting the bubbles escape, but it had a significantly lower surface area than the other two electrodes, making it less productive. Wiley said commercial producers of water electrolyzers may be able to make improvements in the structure of their electrodes based on what his team has learned.

How EV Charging Building Codes Help Future-Proof New Developments

Blink Charging

Sprinkler systems were often ignored, as installation added to the cost of construction. In a proverbial nutshell, EVSE building codes guarantee that every new commercial or multi-unit dwelling (MUD) has EV charging infrastructure. And this is where EVSE building codes come in.

Metamaterials Could Solve One of 6G’s Big Problems

Cars That Think

One is the overcrowding of radio bands, and the other is the move to escape that congestion by exploiting higher and higher frequencies. But that strategy can double costs, or worse. Repeaters or relays can also improve coverage but here, too, the costs can be prohibitive. But which is preferable?
