For decades, scientists have tried to make reliable lithium-metal batteries. These high-performance storage cells hold 50% more energy than their prolific, lithium-ion cousins, but higher...
Many drivers use tollways to get from point A to point B because they are a faster and...
Using solar energy to inexpensively harvest hydrogen from water could help replace carbon-based fuel sources and shrink the...
Humans can do lots of things that plants can't do. We can walk around, we can talk, we can hear and see and touch. But...
Perovskite solar cells have progressed in recent years with rapid increases in power conversion efficiency (from 3% in...
Energy communities will play a key role in building the more decentralized, less carbon-intensive, and fairer energy systems...
Developing new ultrathin metal electrodes has allowed researchers to create semitransparent perovskite solar cells that are highly efficient and can be coupled with traditional silicon...
A compound used widely in candles offers promise for a much more modern energy challenge -- storing massive...
There is no cheaper way to generate electricity today than with the sun. Power plants are currently being...
The cost of harvesting solar energy has dropped so much in recent years that it's giving traditional energy...
Perhaps the most frustrating limitation of owning an all-electric car is how long it takes to fully charge the battery. For a Tesla, for example,...
A new paper from associate professor Jiandi Wan's group in the UC Davis Department of Chemical Engineering, published...
There are high hopes for the next generation of high-energy-density lithium metal batteries, but before they can be...
The future of mobility is electric cars, trucks and airplanes. But there is no way a single battery design can power that future. Even your...
Power plants generate electricity and send it into power lines that distribute energy to nodes, or sites, where...
Next-generation lithium batteries that offer lightweight, long-lasting, and low-cost energy storage could revolutionize the energy storage and electric...
