- Using liquid air for grid-scale energy storage - MIT News
The model then draws on state-of-the-art pricing data that’s released every year by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and is widely used by energy modelers worldwide The NREL dataset forecasts prices, construction and retirement of specific types of electricity generation and storage facilities, and more, assuming eight
- A new approach could fractionate crude oil using much less energy
Most of that energy goes into the heat needed to separate the components by their boiling point In an advance that could dramatically reduce the amount of energy needed for crude oil fractionation, MIT engineers have developed a membrane that filters the components of crude oil by their molecular size
- New facility to accelerate materials solutions for fusion energy
By utilizing this approach, the PSFC is executing a major public-private partnership in fusion energy, realizing a research model that the U S fusion community has only recently started to explore, and demonstrating the crucial role that universities can play in the acceleration of the materials and technology required for fusion energy
- Ensuring a durable transition - MIT News
And one-in-16 new jobs nationwide were in clean energy, with clean energy jobs growing more than three times faster than job growth economy-wide” In this rapid expansion, the U S Department of Energy (DoE) is prioritizing economically marginalized places, according to Zoe Lipman, lead for good jobs and labor standards in the Office of Energy
- Transforming fusion from a scientific curiosity into a powerful clean . . .
The problem got harder when, in Hartwig’s last year in graduate school, the Department of Energy announced plans to terminate funding for the Alcator C-Mod tokamak, a major fusion experiment in MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center that Hartwig needed to do to graduate Hartwig was able to finish his PhD, and the scare didn’t dissuade
- Recovering from the past and transitioning to a better energy future . . .
Transitioning to a decarbonized electricity system is one piece of the puzzle Growing amounts of solar and wind energy — along with nuclear, hydropower, and geothermal — are slowly transforming the energy electricity landscape, but Carter noted that there are new technologies farther down the pipeline
- Explained: Generative AI’s environmental impact - MIT News
Plus, generative AI models have an especially short shelf-life, driven by rising demand for new AI applications Companies release new models every few weeks, so the energy used to train prior versions goes to waste, Bashir adds New models often consume more energy for training, since they usually have more parameters than their predecessors
- Power when the sun doesn’t shine - MIT News
A study by the nonprofit LDES (Long Duration Energy Storage) Council pegs the long-duration energy storage market at between 80 and 140 terawatt-hours by 2040 “That’s a really big number,” Chiang notes “Every 10 people on the planet will need access to the equivalent of one EV [electric vehicle] battery to support their energy needs ”
- New 3D chips could make electronics faster and more energy-efficient
A low-cost, scalable fabrication technology developed at MIT can integrate fast, efficient gallium nitride transistors onto a standard silicon chip, which could boost the performance of electronic chips used in high-bandwidth applications like video calling and real-time deep learning
- Tackling the energy revolution, one sector at a time
“Folks in the industry know that some kind of energy transition needs to happen, but they may not necessarily know for certain what the most viable path forward is,” says Liang Although there is no singular avenue to zero emissions, the new model provides a way to further quantify and assess at least one slice of pie to aid decision-making
