Researchers at the University of Delaware have developed a highly selective nanoporous silver catalyst capable of electrochemically reducing carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide with 92% efficiency. The carbon monoxide then can be used to produce synthetic fuels and chemicals. The researcher reported their findings in Nature Communications.
Wind accounted for 2.3%. PJM data shows that peak time for renewable energy generation from wind is generally between 10 p.m. According to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), US electricity generation in 2010 was 70% fossil fuels (coal 44.9%, natural gas 23.8%); 20% nuclear; and 10% renewable, of which 6.2%
Renewable Wind Energy: MBTA will design and construct wind energy generation turbines in eastern Massachusetts (from among Kingston, Newburyport, Bridgewater). Wind Energy Project: GLPTC seeks to reduce its electrical energy usage by investing in a renewable source of energy to be generated by wind using equipment on site.

for High Power Wind Generators The University of Houston will develop a new, low-cost. superconducting wire that can be used in future advanced wind turbine generators. used to make a wind turbine generator lighter, more powerful, and more efficient. has traditionally been too expensive to use in wind generators.
Sun Catalytix Corporation will develop a unique technology to split water into hydrogen and oxygen under benign conditions to enable storage of intermittent renewable solar and wind energy for around-the-clock use. Breakthrough High Efficiency Shrouded Wind Turbine. DOE grant: $4,085,350). The University of Minnesota and BioCee, Inc.
University of Delaware Professor Willett Kempton, the pioneer of the grid-integrated vehicle concept, is Nuvve’s CTO.). As solar, wind and other renewable sources, which are intermittent, replace fossil fuels as a source of energy and enter mainstream power grids, stabilizing the power supply also poses a challenge.
Results from the study also suggest that with sufficient coal plant retirement and sufficient wind power, controlled charging could result in positive net benefits instead of negative. High Wind Future: In this scenario, they modified the future case to add wind plants sufficient to produce 20% of generation.
The amount of cobalt, copper, lithium, cadmium, and rare earth elements needed for solar photovoltaics, batteries, electric vehicle (EV) motors, wind turbines, fuel cells, and nuclear reactors will likely grow at a rapid pace in the upcoming years. —Sovacool et al. Sovacool et al. Benjamin K. Sovacool, Saleem H.
To avoid CO 2 emissions associated with H2-production, electrolysis of water powered by solar, wind or hydroelectricity would be a preferred source and has achieved a level of maturity and success. Alternatively, syngas can be added to sugar fermentation to provide the necessary reducing power and carbon. …
The companies are essentially creating a pure play company to target the Delaware Basin in the Permian, the latest vote of confidence for a region that is undergoing a resurgence. The move comes after a handful of other billion-dollar deals targeting the Permian in just the past few weeks.
The selected projects—spanning 22 states and coordinated at universities, national laboratories, and private companies—will advance technologies for a wide range of areas, including electric vehicles, offshore wind, storage and nuclear recycling. University of Delaware.
As noted in a Reuters report, Fisker is winding down its operations in bankruptcy after selling off its existing vehicle fleet and reaching settlements with its creditors. bankruptcy judge to approve its liquidation plan at an upcoming hearing in a Delaware court later this week. Fisker is reportedly looking to ask a U.S.
Wilmington, Delaware). Offshore Wind Turbine Digital Twin for the Prediction of Component Failures, $200,000. Assessment Robot for Resilient Optimized Wind Energy ARROW(e), $1,000,000.

The two Cu-Cu-Ti hollow sites exhibit HBE values close to that of Pt. The Cu-Ti-Ti hollow site binds hydrogen too strongly. Click to enlarge. HER in an acidic environment generally requires lower overpotentials than those in a basic environment.
Driving behavior was estimated based on data collected by the Red Clay School District in Delaware. Similarly, the growth of V2G capacity through increased adoption of V2G-capable electric vehicles would encourage and potentially validate high penetration of intermittent renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy.
University of Delaware. Direct Ammonia Fuel Cells for Transport Applications (Category 2) The University of Delaware team will build a fuel cell with a hydroxide-ion conducting membrane electrolyte that consumes ammonia directly to generate electricity. University of Minnesota Twin Cities.
