Jose Reyes, the co-founder and chief technology officer for NuScale Power, talks about the design of small modular nuclear reactors and its future.

Integrating solar power with the grid is a more difficult challenge than many might imagine. With home use of solar power increasing pressure on the grid, creative solutions will be needed to fully integrate this power source: battery storage is one.

Dr. Adam Hollinger of Penn State, Behrend, along with graduate student Scott DeLaney, discusses the safety and efficiency issues involved with lithium-ion batteries.

This discussion covers important aspects of energy storage research developments and career development essentials.

Autonomous vehicles powered by cleaner and more efficient hybrid engines will be the future of the automotive industry says hybrid propulsion expert Dr. Hai Wang of Stanford University.

The solution with the greatest potential for solving the intermittency problem is battery storage. With the technology advancing at a rapid pace, batteries have the potential to store large amounts of power to distribute where and when needed.
