Lost at sea? Charting wave energy’s difficult innovation journey towards comm...Matthew Hannon
A retrospective of the effectiveness of UK wave energy innovation policy since 2000. Identification of innovation support weaknesses, progress in addressing these and recommendations for next steps to accelerate wave energy innovation.
An overview of solar cell technology was presented. Silicon solar cells continue to improve in efficiency through both conventional and multijunction approaches. Thin film technologies like cadmium telluride, copper indium gallium selenide, and emerging materials offer alternatives. Organic solar cells are a promising new approach that could allow low-cost printing on flexible substrates. The photovoltaic industry is growing rapidly but also facing challenges of changing policies and prices of traditional electricity sources. Continued advances across materials and manufacturing are needed to further reduce costs and increase the adoption of solar power.
The document summarizes the U.S. Department of Energy's activities related to critical materials. It discusses the executive order and federal strategy to address vulnerabilities in critical mineral supply chains. It provides background on the Critical Materials Institute and its work to diversify supply, develop substitutes, and improve recycling of materials essential for energy technologies like rare earths, lithium, and cobalt. The document outlines the institute's accomplishments in furthering processing technologies, developing substitute materials, and advancing recycling and reuse. It also details collaborations across the Department of Energy and federal government to implement the national strategy on critical materials.
The document discusses strategic options for REC Solar regarding vertical or horizontal investment. Vertically, REC Solar could invest more in R&D to improve solar cell technology. Horizontally, REC Solar could expand into additional parts of the solar value chain like installation, financing services, or new business areas. However, moving too far downstream risks distracting from the core manufacturing business. The solar market is also very competitive, with many large companies operating across the entire value chain.

Lost at sea? Charting wave energy’s difficult innovation journey towards comm...Matthew Hannon
The UK has a rich history of wave energy technology innovation stretching back to 1976 when it launched its first wave energy programme. Whilst funding was discontinued in the 1980s a new programme was established in the 2000s as wave energy was considered critical to meeting the government’s climate change, energy and economic objectives. Evens so the past 15 years have failed to deliver a commercially viable wave energy device. Consequently, this research examines whether the level and type of innovation support in the UK has contributed to this slow progress and whether these weaknesses could be addressed to help accelerate innovation in the future.
Drawing upon 32 interviews, alongside investment, publication and patent data analysis, this research examines:
1. how much investment has been committed to wave energy RD&D;
2. the mechanisms used to deliver this support;
3. the effectiveness of this support in fostering innovation and;
4. how this support could be re-configured to accelerate innovation.
The research finds that the UK has historically committed an above average level of ocean energy support versus other countries, seeing the UK lead in terms of patents, publications and deployment. However, the level of ocean energy funding still lags behind more mature renewable energy technologies (e.g. wind, solar PV) and its support has suffered from a number of weaknesses including a pressure to go ‘too big too soon’, little requirement for collaboration, intermittent support and a poorly coordinated and complex funding landscape.
Despite these failures significant ‘policy learning’ has taken place, triggering a major reconfiguration of UK wave energy innovation support such as a refocusing on component versus device development, treating wave and tidal energy innovation separately and greater coordination of innovation programmes. Outstanding policy recommendations include strengthening coordination between UK and Scottish governments and collaboration between universities and device developers.

Advanced method for reuse of Li-ion batteries and Analysis by new designed el...IOSR Journals
1. The document describes an advanced method for reusing lithium-ion batteries by chemically treating them and designing a new electronic circuit. The method involves injecting the same components from the original battery, especially lithium, back into the battery.
2. The designed electronic circuit is used to measure the electric potential of batteries that have been injected with solutions containing lithium iron oxide. Various parameters like duration time, pH, concentration, and temperature are analyzed.
3. The results show that increasing the duration time and concentration of the lithium iron oxide solution increases the battery voltage. Increasing the pH also increases the sensitivity of potential measurements. A relationship is observed between voltage, concentration, and duration time.
This document discusses projections for the solar industry and lessons learned. It notes that global electricity demand is projected to grow to 15 terawatts by 2030, and that only solar power is inherently distributed at that scale without fuel costs. Historical growth trends for solar installations are presented for various countries. The document also discusses factors like falling costs and greater competitiveness that are driving further adoption of solar power. Examples of large-scale solar projects and installations in different locations are provided. Opportunities for more efficient solar products, manufacturing processes, and an integrated value chain are examined. Projections are given for continued declines in solar panel prices and for grid parity in more markets in the coming years.
Lithium-ion battery - Challenges for renewable energy solutions - InnoVentum ...Jeff Gallagher
Background on InnoVentum and ADB (Asian Development Bank)
InnoVentum is striving to give Power to the People by making renewable energy affordable and available.
• 1.6 billion people have no access to electricity at all. To start with, InnoVentum is targeting “island economies” like the Philippines, the Maldives and Sri Lanka where most energy today is produced by diesel and gasoline generators.
• InnoVentum is offering a typhoon-resilient solar-wind hybrid solution called the Dali PowerTower and this needs a battery back-up.
• Most human aid organisations today require significant capacity – amounting to 30 kWh per set – and modern Li-
Ion Battery (LIB) technology, but expect lowest possible LCOE (Levelised Cost of Energy) and best possible
sustainability/LCA.
• InnoVentum is using iKnow-Who to organise a collaborative University Competition
Edinburgh | May-16 | Energy Storage Technologies for Climate Change MitigationSmart Villages
This document discusses energy storage technologies and their potential role in mitigating climate change. It outlines an approach to assessing promising technologies which includes literature review, expert elicitation, technology selection, energy system modeling. It finds that cost is a major factor and that lead-acid, redox flow and lithium-ion batteries show promise. By 2020, improvements will likely come from manufacturing advances rather than new chemistries, but longer-term R&D could enable new technologies by 2030 if given sufficient funding and support. Energy storage could significantly aid renewable energy deployment but both R&D investment and policies to support deployment will be needed to realize its potential benefits.
This document discusses emerging photovoltaic technologies that have the potential to disrupt the dominant crystalline silicon solar cell technology. It identifies perovskite solar cells, quantum dot photovoltaics, and concentrated photovoltaics as the top three emerging technologies with disruptive potential over the next 10-15 years. These technologies could beat silicon cells on cost or have applications outside of power generation. However, supporting these technologies and bringing them from the lab to commercial production faces challenges like a lack of sustained funding to cross "valleys of death" between research and mass production.
An overview of the lithium market, including factors impacting demand such as electric-mobility, energy storage and battery technology, but also factors influencing supply growth.

Beyond the Advance Presentation for By the Book 9John Rodzvilla
In June 2020, L.L. McKinney, a Black author of young adult novels, began the #publishingpaidme hashtag to create a discussion on how the publishing industry treats Black authors: “what they’re paid. What the marketing is. How the books are treated. How one Black book not reaching its parameters casts a shadow on all Black books and all Black authors, and that’s not the same for our white counterparts.” (Grady 2020) McKinney’s call resulted in an online discussion across 65,000 tweets between authors of all races and the creation of a Google spreadsheet that collected information on over 2,000 titles.
While the conversation was originally meant to discuss the ethical value of book publishing, it became an economic assessment by authors of how publishers treated authors of color and women authors without a full analysis of the data collected. This paper would present the data collected from relevant tweets and the Google database to show not only the range of advances among participating authors split out by their race, gender, sexual orientation and the genre of their work, but also the publishers’ treatment of their titles in terms of deal announcements and pre-pub attention in industry publications. The paper is based on a multi-year project of cleaning and evaluating the collected data to assess what it reveals about the habits and strategies of American publishers in acquiring and promoting titles from a diverse group of authors across the literary, non-fiction, children’s, mystery, romance, and SFF genres.
