MIT engineers developed a membrane that filters the components of crude oil by their molecular size, an advance that could dramatically reduce the amount of energy needed for crude oil
MIT researchers discovered that dendrites, cracks that harm the performance of solid-state batteries, can grow at far lower stresses than previously understood. The findings reveal why
A look at how AI can be used to help support the clean energy transition by helping to manage power grid operations, plan infrastructure investments, guide the development of novel
At the MIT Energy Initiative''s Annual Research Conference, industry leaders agreed collaboration is key to advancing critical technologies amidst a changing energy landscape.
New research emphasizes the importance of well-validated models and forecasting tools in evaluating choices for investments in clean energy technologies and policies by governments and
To address these limitations, this study presents a novel laboratory simulation device, which is capable of replicating the coupled thermo-mechanical (T-M) conditions of underground
The basic design parameters of the medium–temperature TS–CAES system and the design point parameters of the energy storage and release process are shown in Table 6 and Table 7,
Geothermal energy, a clean, continuous energy source accessible in many locations, has been slow to catch on. Nearly 2,000 years ago, the Romans made extensive use of geothermal
Founded by a team from MIT, Lamarr.AI utilizes drones, thermal imaging, and AI to identify energy waste and structural issues in buildings and recommend retrofits.
MIT engineers created a carbon-cement supercapacitor that can store large amounts of energy. Made of just cement, water, and carbon black, the device could form the basis for
We instrumented the refrigeration system, air-handling system, glycol circuit, and the thermal energy storage modules to measure various temperatures, pressures, flow rates in the system (Figure 5) to
Investigators in the MIT Energy Initiative and the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center have found that — depending on its future cost and performance — fusion energy has the potential
Taking the 10 kW class energy storage system as a case study, the impact of compressor inlet temperature, compressor total pressure ratio, and the number of expansion stages on the thermal
The new Schmidt Laboratory for Materials in Nuclear Technologies (LMNT) at the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center accelerates fusion materials testing using cyclotron proton beam
