Green Car Congress

NOVEMBER 20, 2009

Total has signed a research agreement with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to develop new stationary batteries that are designed to enable the storage of solar power. This agreement valued at $4 million over five years is part of the MIT Energy Initiative (MITEI), which Total joined as a member in November 2008.

A new metal mesh membrane developed by researchers at MIT could advance the use of the Na–NiCl 2 displacement battery, which has eluded widespread adoption owing to the fragility of the ?"-Al through the MIT Energy Initiative. Al 2 O 3 membrane. A paper describing the development is published in the journal Nature Energy.

MIT professor Donald Sadoway and his team have demonstrated a long-cycle-life calcium-metal-based liquid-metal rechargeable battery for grid-scale energy storage, overcoming the problems that have precluded the use of the element: its high melting temperature, high reactivity and unfavorably high solubility in molten salts.

However, poor mobility of Mg 2+ (and other multivalent cations) prevents the development of a broad spectrum of cathode materials, as are available to lithium- and sodium-ion battery technologies. In addition, we propose practical design rules to identify fast multivalent-ion solid conductors. —Canepa et al.

Skolnik began his career in 1955 at MIT ’s Lincoln Laboratory. He left MIT in 1959 to join Electronic Communications, now part of Raytheon. During his tenure at the company, he oversaw the design and construction of the Clinch River Breeder Reactor project, a sodium-cooled nuclear facility in Tennessee.
