Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries power phones, laptops, other personal electronics and electric cars, and are even used to store energy generated by solar panels. But if the temperature of these batteries rises too high, they stop working and can catch fire.

During a fireside chat Tuesday, Arun Majumdar, dean of the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability, and Yi Cui, director of the Precourt Institute for Energy, discussed Stanford’s role in developing clean energy solutions.

Amprius believes its high energy density battery cells could be the breakthrough needed to enable eVTOL aircraft to have practical use range and endurance.

UK team uses 'nanomaterials' made from seaweed to create 'safer, greener, better' battery

Adapted from a UC–Berkeley press release Using an inexpensive polymer called melamine — the main component of Formica — chemists have created a cheap, easy and energy-efficient way to capture carbon dioxide from smokestacks and possibly from vehicles. The process for synthesizing the melamine material, published this week in the journal Science Advances, could potentially be

In one of his recent Twitter posts, Elon Musk shared a letter from a Stanford University lecturer who was supposed to be his professor had he not dropped out of the institute.

Using an inexpensive polymer called melamine, researchers from UC Berkeley, Texas A&M and Stanford have created a cheap, easy and energy-efficient way to capture carbon dioxide from smokestacks. The process for synthesizing the melamine material, published in an open-access paper in the journal Science Advances, could potentially be scaled down...

Chemists have used melamine to create an inexpensive and energy-efficient way to capture carbon dioxide, an advance that could one day be scaled down and employed in vehicle exhausts.
