Energy storage and release should be the biggest collaborative - TopicsExpress



          

Energy storage and release should be the biggest collaborative project being pursued today, by govts, corporations and inventors/scientists. So many problems could be solved with this technology. The U.S. Department of Energy is searching for ways to make storing energy with hydrogen a practical possibility, and they set up some goals for onboard automotive hydrogen storage systems with a driving range of 300 miles or more: the Department had hoped that by 2017, a research team could pack in 5.5 percent hydrogen by weight, and that by 2020, it could be stretched to 7.5 percent. Li’s team has already crossed that threshold, with a hydrogen storage density of 9.5 percent hydrogen by weight. The team has also demonstrated the potential to reach an even higher density, a future research goal.
