Smart Wire Grid's DSR technology (Discrete Series Reactor) can be quickly deployed on electrical transmission lines to create intelligent mesh networks capable of quickly rerouting electricity to get power where and when it's needed the most.
Learn how Fluidic, with the help of ARPA-E funding, has developed and deployed the world's first proven high cycle life metal air battery.
Learn how Cree, with the help of ARPA-E funding, has developed a Silicon Carbide (SIC) transistor which can be used to create solid state transformers capable of meeting the unique needs of the emerging smart grid.
Learn how ATK and ACEnt Laboratories, with the help of ARPA-E funding, have taken an aerospace problem, supersonic condensation, and turned it into a viable clean energy solution for carbon capture.
POWER Magazine interviewed ARPA-E awardees from PARC about their project to develop a fiber optic monitoring system that could provide detailed information about the internal condition of batteries.
With the help of ARPA-E funding, General Compression has created an advanced air compression process that can store and release more than a week's worth of the energy generated by wind turbines.
ARPA-E awardee Sheetak is developing a low-cost, solid-state compressor technology that could disrupt the global refrigeration and cooling market.
ARPA-E awardee Foro Energy has accomplished what many thought was impossible: sending high-powered lasers over long distances.
Learn more about the work ARPA-E awardee CUNY Energy Institute is doing to create long-lasting, fully rechargeable, grid-scale batteries that could be capable of storing enough electricity to power homes, cars, and cities.
Watch Dan Nocera from Sun Catalytix explain how his company is helping to advance the next generation of solar energy.
Learn more about ARPA-E’s Electrofuels program, which is using microorganisms to create liquid transportation fuels in a new and different way that could be up to 10 times more energy efficient than current biofuel production methods.
With the help of ARPA-E funding, 1366 Technologies is developing an innovative way to produce low-cost silicon wafers for solar energy applications.
Many ARPA-E-funded universities and research institutions have created start-up companies to further catalyze their next-generation technologies. Ambri and BlackPak are two examples of ARPA-E projects that were spun out by other institutions—Massachusetts Institute of Technology and SRI International, respectively—in an effort to get their technologies out of the lab and into the market quickly.
The story of an ARPA-E awardee doesn’t necessarily end when ARPA-E funding runs out. Two ARPA-E awardees—Eagle Picher Technologies and Baldor Electric Company—have developed technologies to the point where internal stakeholders of their respective companies committed additional funds to help these technologies achieve success in the market.
Strong strategic partnerships can be the difference between those technologies that only achieve success in the lab and those that actually break into the marketplace. Two ARPA-E awardees—AutoGrid and APEI—have forged strategic partnerships that have positioned their technologies to achieve major success in the market.
