Taylor provides international business consulting services to many firms and invests in emerging technologies that positively impact society and the environment. Interest in environmental technologies continues to rise due to the accelerating climate crisis and the consumption of nonrenewable resources faster than ever. Power is one of the primary limiting factors of why green technologies cannot provide energy permanently. This is because even wind and solar energy require benefic weather to function properly, and it can’t always be sunny or windy outside. In the renewable energy industry, the California-based company Form Energy is exploring aqueous sulfur-flow batteries as a cost-effective replacement for lithium batteries, which cost approximately $200 per kilowatt-hour. The aqueous sulfur-flow batteries would cost about $1 to $10 per kilowatt-hour and can be produced easier as they are made from tar sands waste. Their development could assist California with achieving its goal of powering the state solely through renewable energies. Another closely followed environmental solution is carbon capture and storage (CCS), which can benefit the environment in the long term by reducing greenhouse gas emissions that drive global climate change. These technologies separate carbon dioxide from the gases that industrial and electricity-generation processes produce. CCS facilities capture the carbon dioxide and transport it below ground for storage in geologic formations. This can help address one of this era’s most dire environmental problems and improve the health of people and the planet.

accelerating climate crisis and the consumption of nonrenewable
resources faster than ever. Power is one of the primary limiting
factors of why green technologies cannot provide energy
permanently. This is because even wind and solar energy require
benefic weather to function properly, and it can’t always be sunny
or windy outside.

Form Energy is exploring aqueous sulfur-flow batteries as a cost-
effective replacement for lithium batteries, which cost
