Batteries
The startup's granular charging controls can get more energy out of second-life batteries while also detecting and preventing failures that could start fires.
Carbon capture
As New York City works to reduce building-related carbon emissions, one 30-story apartment tower is proving you can trap and sequester carbon from gas boiler exhaust.
Just transition
In January, new wage and apprenticeship criteria will kick in for companies seeking popular federal tax incentives for renewable energy projects.

Fun stuff
Get your family chattering about protests that could spur clean-energy progress (ones that don't involve throwing food at famous artworks).
Geothermal
The Google spinout installs ground-source heat pumps for households in the frigid Northeast. Now it’s got federal tax credits and energy inflation to help it make the pitch.
Energy storage
The startup pulled in millions for its novel gravity-based storage design, but most of its deal flow these days comes from garden-variety lithium-ion batteries.
Long-duration energy storage
Some say it's the key to unlocking a decarbonized grid. Will a new pot of federal funding be enough to push long-duration storage into the mainstream?
Fossil fuels
North Carolina–based NET Power uses a novel combustion cycle that captures its own emissions. Now it's building a 300MW plant in Texas to prove it works at scale.
