"BattGenie is a University of Washington spinoff that has developed software to goose the performance of lithium batteries that power electrical vehicles, consumer devices and other electronics. The software helps optimize fast recharging while extending the life of batteries."

"Using a combustor and turbine supplied by Toshiba Corp., the test facility captures and recycles the CO2 produced by gas-fired combustion — instead of steam — to generate electricity. Remaining CO2 can either be stored underground in geological formations or used for other industrial processes."

"Elon Musk was not mad when he announced funding for carbon removal technology. It’s a field that’s on the cusp of spreading worldwide, and one in desperate need of further research. If countries are unable to reduce their emissions, carbon capture might be our only hope for reducing the impact on the climate – the sooner it’s commercially viable, the better."

"For the past decade, the German-based company has been developing its Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carrier (LOHC) technology that chemically binds green hydrogen at high storage densities under ambient conditions to enable transport and storage using the infrastructure for conventional fuels."

"Bill Gates’ nuclear venture is called TerraPower, and it has (rather symbolically) picked a remote coal town in western Wyoming as the site of its first innovative nuclear power plant. The plant will be cooled with liquid sodium instead of water, making it safer, more efficient, and more cost-effective than a traditional nuclear plant. They also have the potential to recycle their own spent fuel within these ‘molten salt’ cooling systems, thereby mitigating the total output of radioactive waste which represents one of nuclear critics’ strongest sticking points."

"The U.S. space agency also pointed out that work on the lunar nuclear fission reactor will also help advance work into nuclear-powered rockets, such as a rocket being developed by a startup called Ad Astra, which, in theory, could reach speeds of up to 123,000 mph (~198,000 km/h) and travel to Mars in only a month."
