Battery Boom: American Battery Technology Surges on Recycling Deal & $900M Lithium Loan

Battery Boom: American Battery Technology Surges on Recycling Deal & $900M Lithium Loan

Company Profile & Strategy American Battery Technology Company (NASDAQ: ABAT, ticker often ABAT) is a Reno, Nevada-based “critical battery materials” company globenewswire.com globenewswire.com. It pioneers a full lifecycle approach to lithium-ion batteries: mining domestic mineral deposits (like Tonopah Flats) and recycling spent batteries for lithium, cobalt, nickel, etc. ABTC’s mission statement emphasizes innovation in “first-of-kind technologies” to produce and recycle battery metals domestically, reducing US reliance on foreign sources globenewswire.com. Key to this is ABTC’s proprietary processing: for example its Tonopah Flats project will use a selective leach extraction (SLE) method to turn claystone directly into battery-grade lithium hydroxide, which

$1B Fusion Lab Headed to Albuquerque — Is Clean Energy on the Horizon?

$1B Fusion Lab Headed to Albuquerque — Is Clean Energy on the Horizon?

A $1B Fusion Campus: Albuquerque’s Big Bet Albuquerque’s leaders and New Mexico’s government see Pacific Fusion’s campus as a historic win. Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham described the company’s decision as proof that “our state can compete—and win in the race to attract the most innovative companies in the world” losalamosreporter.com. The state’s $1 billion incentive package (mostly in bonds and performance-based tax relief) helped secure the deal over competing California sites kob.com cosmico.org. Mesa del Sol – a growing tech park on Albuquerque’s south side – was chosen for its power availability, space and nearby skilled workforce. The site already hosts

US Utility’s Fusion Moonshot: Betting Billions on “Star Power” to Fuel the AI Era

US Utility’s Fusion Moonshot: Betting Billions on “Star Power” to Fuel the AI Era

TVA’s Fusion Gamble at Bull Run The TVA’s plan marks an unprecedented move by a US utility: building, owning and operating a fusion power plant (pending regulatory and board approvals) rather than just buying fusion power from a third party. In September 2025, TVA issued a letter of intent to Type One Energy, signaling its interest in deploying the company’s fusion reactor at TVA’s former Bull Run Fossil Plant site near Oak Ridge, Tennessee typeoneenergy.com. Bull Run was a coal-fired power station retired in 2023 – now its grounds may host a cutting-edge fusion facility, symbolically transitioning from fossil fuels

Saltwater Revolution: How Osmotic Power Could Be the Next Big Clean Energy Source

Saltwater Revolution: How Osmotic Power Could Be the Next Big Clean Energy Source

What Is Osmotic Power and How Does It Work? Osmotic power (or salinity gradient energy) is electricity generated from the natural process of osmosis – the movement of water across a membrane from a dilute solution to a salty solution theguardian.com. At river deltas where freshwater meets the ocean, immense chemical energy is continuously released as the two mix. Osmotic power plants capture a portion of this energy by separating fresh and salt water with special membranes in a controlled setting theguardian.com. The concept has been studied since at least the 1970s, but only in recent years have technological advances

Structural Battery Composites: The Game-Changing Tech Turning Vehicles into Batteries

Structural Battery Composites: The Game-Changing Tech Turning Vehicles into Batteries

Structural Battery Composites: A Deep Dive What Are Structural Battery Composites (SBCs) and How Do They Work? In a nutshell, Structural Battery Composites are materials that function as both the skeleton and the battery of a device. Traditional batteries are standalone units – think of the heavy lithium-ion pack bolted into an electric car’s floor. That pack provides energy but adds dead weight and usually needs its own casing for protection. SBCs flip this concept: the energy storage is built into the device’s structure itself, so the material that carries load (like a car frame, body panel, or drone wing)

PEM vs Alkaline vs Solid Oxide Electrolyzers: The 2025 Hydrogen Technology Showdown

PEM vs Alkaline vs Solid Oxide Electrolyzers: The 2025 Hydrogen Technology Showdown

Alkaline electrolyzers use a liquid potassium hydroxide (KOH) electrolyte, operate at about 60–80 °C, and have decades of industrial use in chlor-alkali and fertilizer plants. PEM electrolyzers use a solid polymer membrane and typically operate at 50–80 °C, delivering very high-purity hydrogen (>99.999%), with iridium catalysts at the anode and platinum at the cathode. SOEC operate at 700–850 °C with a ceramic oxide-ion electrolyte, reduce steam to hydrogen, and can exceed 80% LHV electrical efficiency when heat is supplied, with Sunfire achieving about 84% LHV in a multi‑megawatt unit and NASA reporting a 4 MW SOEC system in 2023.

Hydrogen Revolution Heats Up: Global Breakthroughs, Big Investments & Bold Policies (June–July 2025)

Hydrogen Revolution Heats Up: Global Breakthroughs, Big Investments & Bold Policies (June–July 2025)

South Korea’s Hanyang University researchers developed a boron-doped cobalt phosphide catalyst that halves hydrogen fuel cost, remains stable for over 100 hours, and outperforms platinum and iridium electrodes. Sweden’s Linköping University created a triple-layer photoelectrode (cubic silicon carbide, cobalt oxide, nickel hydroxide) that produced eight times more hydrogen than silicon carbide alone and aims for 10% solar-to-hydrogen efficiency within 5–10 years. A Chinese team from Tianjin University demonstrated PEM electrolyzers that can use ordinary impure water with a Brønsted-acid MoO3-x additive to create an acidic microenvironment, maintaining performance over 3,000 hours. Australia’s CSIRO unveiled a beam-down solar thermal reactor that
