Additionally, Mark McGranaghan, vice president of distribution and energy utilization at the Electric Power Research Institute, said, “Singling out inverters doesn’t even make that much sense.” He agreed that a lot of inverters aren’t connected to the internet.

And while the unit does note that it has “intelligent energy management solutions”, the marketing material notes that full backup functionality will be available with a backup unit from 3rd-party vendors.

The design of Zhao’s solar inverter proposes a new circuit capable of generating AC directly at medium voltage, eliminating the need for a transformer. This innovation significantly increases the volumetric power density of the device, while decreasing its size and reducing installation and maintenance costs.

The vehicle inverters market comprises major manufacturers such as Denso (Japan), Delphi Technologies (UK), Continental AG (Germany), Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (Japan), Toshiba (Japan), and Hitachi (Japan). Key Topics Covered:

"We recognize the automakers can’t keep paying for fuel, and we see the line of sight to get there, but it is a volume game and we need to hit a critical mass," said Shane Stephens, principal and chief development officer at FirstElement Fuel, which runs 19 of the 39 hydrogen refueling stations in California and is developing 12 of the 25 additional stations for the state. His company’s near-term target is $10/kg, which would equate to roughly $4/gal of gas. "That is a good near-term acceptable number to hit in the next three to five years and get people off automaker-subsidized fuel," Stephens said.

“We have live music on the weekends,” Dunn said. “But from Sunday to Friday afternoon, it’s just a neighborhood bar and grill.”

"The cost of manufacturing our material is so low, and the energy density it can store is so much higher than a lithium-ion battery, that we could see hydrogen fuel cell systems that cost four times less than lithium-ion batteries, as well as providing a much longer range," said Antonelli. The technology has been licensed to a for-profit company called Kubagen, set up by Antonelli.
