Holographic Passively-Tracking Planar Solar Concentrator
SBC: Creative Light Source, Inc Topic: 05cConcentrating Solar (CS) technologies intend to overcome the prohibitive price/performance of solar energy by focusing sunlight down to small, manageable areas. However, tracking the suns movement across the sky mandates the use of expensive, large, pivoting structures to effectively capture all angles of the suns path. Unfortunately, this necessity greatly hinders the employment of CS technologie ...

Spiral Welded Wind Turbine Towers
SBC: Keystone Tower Systems, Inc. Topic: 07aLarge-scale wind turbine designs are significantly constrained by transportation limits. As utility scale wind turbines have developed, they have steadily increased in size and have seen a steady decrease in cost of energy. However, further increases in on-shore turbine size beyond 3MW are prohibited by hard limits in the size of components that can be economically transported to the wind farm sit ...

An Electrochemical Pathway to Fuels and Chemicals from CO2
SBC: ELTRON RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT, INCORPORATED Topic: 21aCO2 is a plentiful potential feedstock for the synthesis of a number of fuels and chemicals. Unfortunately, reactions utilizing CO2 are often slow, equilibrium limited, and energy consuming. Furthermore, the production of some chemicals and polymer precursors may require multiple process steps. Thus, selection of candidate chemistries and approaches for implementing them is important. In any of th ...
