Check out the MIT Energy Initiative podcast with Professors Sadoway and Shao-Horn

Batteries and Storage

In this podcast, Bruce Gellerman from WBUR speaks with Prof. Donald Sadoway and Prof. Yang Shao-Horn. He says, "Today we’ll be pursuing the renewable and clean energy holy grail: storage. The ability to store solar, wind, and hydro energy and release it when the sun isn’t shining, the air is calm, and the water is still, promises to transform our electric power future. In this episode, we’ll explore the current state of storage technology, where it’s going, and how we’ll get there."

“There are two dimensions that data centers have to make decisions about,” Christopher Knittel says. “One is how much of their load in any one time period is flexible. And two, how many hours, plus or minus, can they move that computation?”

MIT News
Ferveret’s cooling system submerges computer servers in a specialized liquid that absorbs heat much more efficiently than air from a fan. What makes the solution different from other liquid cooling systems are smaller bubbles at the surface of the server, which detach more frequently, accelerating the heat transfer process.
