Hexana aims to implement a fast neutron and sodium-cooled reactor, integrating a high-temperature storage device. An adjoining conversion system will allow it to produce electricity as needed and flexibly to compete with gas-fired power plants but also to supply heat directly to nearby energy-intensive industries.

Others solid battery types are nickel-cadmium and sodium-sulphur, while zinc-air is emerging. Technologies include energy storage with molten salt and liquid air or cryogenic storage. Energy storage with hydrogen, which is still emerging, would involve its conversion from electricity via electrolysis for storage in tanks.

Many recent research and development efforts for cellulosic biofuels have explored a two-step bioconversion process involving: 1) liberation of fermentable sugars from lignocellulose; and 2) conversion of sugars into fuels and/or chemicals by fermentation. The use of ionic liquids (molten salts with melting points.
