C-Crete Technologies Awarded $1.5 Million from ARPA-E To Develop Novel Insulating Systems for Energy Infrastructure
The 100- to 400-ton LPTs, which cost millions of dollars to manufacture, prepare electricity for transmission from a generating plant to end users.
- The 100- to 400-ton LPTs, which cost millions of dollars to manufacture, prepare electricity for transmission from a generating plant to end users.
- Transformers, which are essential elements of the U.S. national grid system, step up or down voltages for efficient electricity transmission.
- C-Crete Technologies will integrate a series of advanced surface chemistry, colloidal engineering, high-throughput characterizations, and pilot demonstrations to develop novel insulating nanofluids with a projected 80-year lifetime.
- C-Crete's nanofluid technology has applications in other diverse markets such as automobiles, lubrications, nuclear cooling, thermal energy storage, and microelectronics.
