As fleets work towards reducing emissions, understanding the differences in aftertreatment systems for various fuel types is crucial. The adoption and growth of hydrogen internal combustion engines (ICE) is a significant step as hydrogen ICE provides a low-emission, low-carbon option for a more sustainable transportation sector. The mechanisms that clean exhaust gases in these engines are fundamen
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are advanced energy storage solutions that store electrical energy for later use. They can be recharged when there is an excess supply of electricity, often at lower costs, or when intermittent renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind, are generating power. BESS can then discharge the stored energy to provide a dedicated power supply, support microgrids
The electricity grid is the largest machine humanity has ever made. It operates on a supply-side model – the grid operates on a supply/demand model that attempts to balance supply with end load to maintain stability. When there isn’t enough, the frequency and/or voltage drops or the supply browns or blacks out. These are bad moments that the grid works hard to avoid. The electricity grid consis
