At the MIT Energy Initiative’s Annual Research Conference, industry leaders agreed collaboration is key to advancing critical technologies amidst a changing energy landscape.
A look at how AI can be used to help support the clean energy transition by helping to manage power grid operations, plan infrastructure investments, guide the development of novel materials, and more.
MIT engineers developed a membrane that filters the components of crude oil by their molecular size, an advance that could dramatically reduce the amount of energy needed for crude oil fractionation.
The new Schmidt Laboratory for Materials in Nuclear Technologies (LMNT) at the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center accelerates fusion materials testing using cyclotron proton beam irradiation, advancing fusion energy, nuclear power, and clean energy research at MIT.
New research emphasizes the importance of well-validated models and forecasting tools in evaluating choices for investments in clean energy technologies and policies by governments and companies.
As MIT’s first vice president for energy and climate, Evelyn Wang is working to broaden MIT’s research portfolio, scale up existing innovations, seek new breakthroughs, and channel campus community input to drive work forward.
Geothermal energy, a clean, continuous energy source accessible in many locations, has been slow to catch on. Nearly 2,000 years ago, the Romans made extensive use of geothermal energy — heat from the Earth — including at the spa complex at present-day Bath, England. Electricity was first produced from geothermal sources in the early 1900s in Italy. In the United States, the Geysers ...
