With more wind and solar coming on the grid, longer duration storage than that provided by Li-ion batteries (2-4 hours) will be needed to shift excess production to times of demand. Inlyte has developed a low-cost, salt-iron battery for grid storage, well-suited for 4+ hour durations. This alternative chemistry is also fire-safe and does not rely on scarce lithium.

Puna Bio develops biological (non-GMO) seed treatments based on the unique capabilities of 3.5 billion-year-old extremophiles from the highest and driest desert on Earth. This enables growing in degraded soils (acidic, UV-irradiated, salinated), conditions that are developing in one-third of the world’s agricultural land.
