Research Overview

This edition of the Energy & Power Systems (EPS) TOE features development of lithium-carbon hybrid batteries with ultra-fast charging capabilities that can be used in electric vehicles. The TOE covers innovations based on the use of molten salt-based modular nuclear reactors for ultra-safe energy generation. The TOE additionally provides insights on the installation of high temperature proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells with improved energy density for use in aviation applications. The TOE provides latest innovations for commercializing clean energy solutions used for generation of green ammonia and green hydrogen in a cost-effective manner. The TOE also provides the latest insights on the use of powerful wind turbines to generate renewable energy at lower costs, use of artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) to enhance management of smart grid infrastructure, and the use of utility scale energy storage systems to increase energy production in off-shore winds farms

The Energy and Power Systems TOE provides insights on the latest advances in the broad range of technology related to the energy industry. The topics regularly presented range from energy storage technologies (solid-state batteries, solar chemical storage and other advanced energy storage devices) to non-renewable energy such as oil and gas. Special emphasis is given to emerging areas in the renewable sector such as photovoltaics, wind energy, and geothermal energy, and emerging alternative fuels such as hydrogen, syngas, ethanol and biofuels. The EPS TOE keeps clients abreast of the latest R&D developments at major corporate and academic research centers, provides competitor intelligence and helps create strategic alliances.

The Energy and Environment cluster provides global insights and intelligence on a wide variety of disruptive emerging technologies and platforms ranging from energy storage, advanced batteries, solar and wind energy, to unconventional oil, bioenergy, geothermal energy, and energy transmission.
