Using liquid air for grid-scale energy storage

MIT Energy Initiative
MIT PhD candidate Shaylin Cetegen (pictured) and her colleagues, Professor Emeritus Truls Gundersen of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology and Professor Emeritus Paul Barton of MIT, have developed a comprehensive assessment of the potential role of “liquid air energy storage” for large-scale, long-duration storage on electric power grids of the future.

Reducing carbon emissions from residential heating: A pathway forward

MIT Energy Initiative
A modeling study by an MIT team has shown that electrifying residential heating can be a substantial step toward reducing carbon emissions, as well as costs, over the combined electricity and natural gas sectors. Here, the team poses beside a high-efficiency electric heat pump system that provides heating to the home, replacing the natural gas-fired furnace.

Smart carbon dioxide removal yields economic and environmental benefits

MIT News
A new MIT study finds that biochar (charcoal produced from plant matter and stored in soil) is a cost-competitive option for removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide removal is expected to play a key role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions in alignment with long-term climate targets.
