Why some quantum materials stall while others scale

MIT News
MIT researchers have developed a system for evaluating the scale-up potential of quantum materials. Their data-driven framework combines a material’s quantum behavior with its cost, supply chain resilience, environmental footprint, and other factors.

How to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from ammonia production

MIT Energy Initiative
MIT researchers have proposed an approach for combined blue-green ammonia production that minimizes waste products and, when combined with some other simple upgrades, could reduce the greenhouse emissions from ammonia production by as much as 63 percent, compared to the leading “low-emissions” approach being used today.

Fighting for the health of the planet with AI

MIT News
“Machine learning is already really widely used for things like solar power forecasting, which is a prerequisite to managing and balancing power grids,” says EECS assistant professor and LIDS PI Priya Donti. “My focus is: How do you improve the algorithms for actually balancing power grids in the face of a range of time-varying renewables?”
