The project aims to enable researchers to screen billions of possible energy storage catalysts per year, a huge jump from the current number possible with typical computational methods.
High prices in California, where roughly one third of U.S. solar capacity is located, drove up the average wholesale price for solar energy to $83/MWh.
The campaign, facilitated by the Berkeley Lab, unlocked what is reportedly the world’s largest dataset of building energy analytics and value propositions.
The power industry says the rule is based on a record EPA has built since 2015, and will apply to only a narrow subset of facilities.

I’m writing this in San Jose under a Mars-like red sky, with light ash occasionally falling and a faint smell of smoke in the air. Solar output has been down by 60 percent even though the fires burning are at least 50 miles…
The standard could pave the way for an expansion of the vehicle electrification market, but must support innovation in a manner that benefits entire communities and not just the wealthy few, according to one expert.
The announcement is part of DOE’s multibillion-dollar effort with industry to develop the next generation of reactors, and comes on the heels of $160 million in funding for two other projects.
The current system “has actively hindered our efforts to decarbonize the grid,” according to Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont.
In a year when clean energy and clean vehicle jobs were supposed to increase by some 175,000, we are down by half a million jobs.
On this episode of The Energy Gang, we will tell you why, and explain the numbers. What will reverse the decline?
Then: Did New Jersey…
California regulators said this year that the state will need 1 gigawatt of long duration storage by 2026. But the technologies that can cost-effectively meet that need have so far attracted more attention from white paper authors than paying customers.
That changed on Thursday, when a coalition of eight…
