Harvard, Cambridge scientists improve durabiliy of redox flow batteries with anthraquinone
A research team has used a molecule known as 2,6-dihydroxy-anthraquinone (DHAQ) to improve the durability of organic aqueous redox flow batteries. They claim the molecule enables a net lifetime that is 17 times longer than past research has shown.
Open-source online platform shows how Europe may become energy-independent with renewables by 2050
European researchers have developed an open-source online tool that can identify areas where renewable energy and synthetic fuels can be cost-effectively produced, where hydrogen hubs could be built, and where grid expansion is needed. It can be used in different sectors across 35 countries.

Fortescue Future Industries and Woodside have been selected as the two finalists in the race to develop what could be one of the world’s largest green hydrogen projects – a 600 MW facility in New Zealand.
Mobile nanogrids powered by solar, green hydrogen
Climate resilience solutions come prefabricated to generate clean, off-grid power for essential services and emergency response needs.
Cold-climate heat pump stays efficient in -12 C conditions
Lennox has developed the first prototype heat pump to achieve the US Department of Energy’s Cold Climate Heat Pump Technology Challenge’s standards, about a year ahead of schedule.
US startup unveils non-flammable batteries for EVs, storage
Alsym will produce its new batteries – made of readily available materials, without lithium or cobalt – for electric vehicles, stationary storage, and marine applications.
New in-roof PV system design from India
Ornate Solar’s engineering team designed, engineered and manufactured the new 530 kWp InRoof solar system in India. It serves as the primary rooftop for Pangaea Natural Stone’s factory in the Indian state of Rajasthan.
Vertical rooftop PV pilot goes online in Norway
Over Easy Solar AS has developed a rooftop PV system with two generation peaks – one in the morning at 11 am, and one in the evening at 7 pm. It has been deployed on a school building.
Renewables desalination for Neom City
The futuristic Neom City will be powered exclusively by renewable energy, but a co-optimization approach with the water sector will be crucial for desalination and sustainable water supplies. Saudi scientists have assessed different system configurations and determined that solar-plus-storage would deliver the lowest levelized cost of energy.
