Xcel Energy entered into an agreement with Form Energy to deploy the latter’s iron-air battery systems at two of the utility’s retiring coal plants.

Scientists say they have “developed a process that returns silicon collected from used cells to greater than 99% purity within a day.”

Scientists from Australia’s Deakin University’s Institute for Frontier Materials (IFM) have successfully tested a new process that can extract silicon from old solar panels, and convert it into a nanomaterial that can be used to build better batteries.

Duke Energy's renewables development division announced the commercial operation of a 120 MW project in Twin Falls County, Idaho, touted as the state's largest to date.
