This edition of the Energy & Power Systems (EPS) TOE features information on vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) for urban energy solutions. The TOE also covers the innovations within virtual power plants to connect residential and commercial battery storage for optimized energy management. The TOE focuses on emerging innovations in long-life lead-acid batteries. The TOE provides information on novel high temperature fission reactors offering superior safety & efficiency. Finally, the focal point of The TOE will also cover the recent innovations in proton-exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer through.



The Energy and Power Systems TOE provides insights on the latest advances in the broad range of technology related to the energy industry. The topics regularly presented range from energy storage technologies (solid-state batteries, solar chemical storage and other advanced energy storage devices) to non-renewable energy such as oil and gas. Special emphasis is given to emerging areas in the renewable sector such as photovoltaics, wind energy, and geothermal energy, and emerging alternative fuels such as hydrogen, syngas, ethanol and biofuels. The EPS TOE keeps clients abreast of the latest R&D developments at major corporate and academic research centers, provides competitor intelligence and helps create strategic alliances.



The Energy and Environment cluster provides global insights and intelligence on a wide variety of disruptive emerging technologies and platforms ranging from energy storage, advanced batteries, solar and wind energy, to unconventional oil, bioenergy, geothermal energy, and energy transmission.
