Flow batteries are a promising technology for making solar and wind power a regular part of the grid. They could theoretically be scaled up to megawatt-hours by increasing their tank size. Flow batteries have longer lifetimes and are safer than lithium-ion batteries. However, their capital cost is more than twice that of lithium-ion batteries, making them expensive. Researchers have managed to reduce the size of a flow battery cell by 75 percent by replacing flat electrodes and membranes with wire electrodes and tubular membranes. The new design could decrease the cost of flow-battery power modules by around half.
Carbonyl is a Chromium-based browser built to run in a terminal. It supports running almost all Web APIs, including WebGL, WebGPU, audio and video playback, and animations. Carbonyl starts up in less than a second and runs at 60 FPS with 0% CPU usage when idle. It is compatible with safe-mode consoles and can even be used through SSH. Carbonyl has only been tested on Linux and macOS.
