There is an ever-present grind towardsmore efficiency, punctuated with sporadic step-change advancements.
Primer: Carbon Removal
Global discourse on decarbonization largely focuses on carbon conservation1—reducing or eliminating fossil fuel energy consumption in various applications.
Primer: Energy Storage
This primer looks at the role energy storage plays in utility scale energy and distributed energy and how it is changing the operation of the traditional centralized grid.
Primer: Aquaculture
Aquaculture—the commercial production of fish, shellfish, and seaweed—offers a compelling opportunity to meet the rising global demand for animal protein while creating economic and environmental value.
