Clean and sustainable energy storage and production are essential to meet the growing demand for energy. However, long-term natural resource scarcity is an impediment to achieving this objective. Advanced materials science and engineering are on the cutting edge of creating viable solutions to complex energy problems. The result of one such endeavor is the current…
The intermittent and irregular power supply of renewable-energy resources necessitates the development of suitable energy-storage systems. In an Asia Sustainable Development Goals Group project, researchers in the Worldwide Universities Network have integrated wind and solar farms with a hybrid energy-storage system based on supercapacitor and flow battery and employed DC microgrids with control systems. While…
