The Salton Sea geothermal field in California potentially holds enough lithium to meet all of America’s domestic battery needs, with even enough left over to export some of it. But how much of that lithium can be extracted in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way? And how long will the resource last? These are just a few of the questions that researchers hope to answer in a new project sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy.
The government is offering up to $20 million to test applications that will shorten the time it takes to drill geothermal wells.
The US Department of Energy (DOE) has announced that it will make available up to $19m in federal funding for the advancement of technologies that utilise waste carbon to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
DOE issued a Request for Information on the scale-up and demonstration of renewable fuels. In the RFI “Overcoming Barriers to Renewable Fuel Scale-Up and Demonstration, DOE expresses its wish to obtain input from biofuels producers
