Fluidized bed gasifier
A fluidized bed gasifier is a reactor that converts solid fuel, most often biomass, into combustible gas by suspending it in an upward flow of air, steam, or oxygen.
Fluoride volatility process
The fluoride volatility process is a dry, non-aqueous pyrochemical method for reprocessing spent nuclear fuel, developed from the 1950s, in which uranium and some plutonium leave as volatile hexafluorides while fission products stay solid.
Fluoride-ion battery
A fluoride-ion battery (FIB) is a rechargeable battery in which fluoride anions, rather than metal cations, carry charge, first made rechargeable at Karlsruhe in 2011.
Fluorinated ether electrolyte
A fluorinated ether electrolyte is a battery electrolyte in which ether solvents carry carbon-bound fluorine, weakening lithium coordination and raising oxidation stability for lithium-metal, sodium-ion, and high-voltage cells.
Fluorine-free electrolyte
A fluorine-free electrolyte is a battery electrolyte in which no component contains fluorine, investigated to replace commercial LiPF6-based electrolytes over safety, environmental, and regulatory concerns.
Fluvius
Fluvius, the operating name of Fluvius System Operator cvba, is the Belgian multi-utility network company that manages electricity, gas, and heat distribution in all 300 Flemish municipalities.
Flywheel energy storage
Flywheel energy storage, also known as a flywheel battery, stores electricity as rotational kinetic energy in a spinning rotor and converts it back through a motor-generator.
Focused Energy
Focused Energy is a German laser fusion startup in Darmstadt, founded in 2021 as a spin-off of Technical University Darmstadt, developing direct-drive laser inertial confinement fusion.
Fong Der power station
Fong Der power station, also romanized Fengde, is a natural gas-fired power plant in Shanshang District, Tainan, Taiwan, operated by Sun Ba Power Corporation and selling its output to Taipower.
Foothills System Gas Pipeline
The Foothills System is a TC Energy natural gas pipeline carrying western Canadian gas from Caroline, Alberta, to US border points at Kingsgate, British Columbia, and Monchy, Saskatchewan.
Forcados Oil Terminal
The Forcados Oil Terminal is a Nigerian crude oil export terminal in the western Niger Delta, commissioned by Shell in 1971 to load the Forcados Blend grade.
Forcados Yokri Oil and Gas Field
Forcados Yokri is an oil and gas field in the Niger Delta of Nigeria, operated by Shell and among the largest in the NNPC/Shell joint venture.
Ford EcoBoost engine
The Ford EcoBoost engine, originally named TwinForce, is Ford's family of turbocharged, direct-injection gasoline engines combining Ti-VCT for large-engine output with lower fuel consumption, launched in 2009.
Fording River Operations
Fording River Operations is a large surface steelmaking coal mine near Elkford in the Elk Valley of southeastern British Columbia, producing metallurgical coal since 1972.
Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant
The Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant is an Iranian facility built inside a mountainside near Qom where uranium was enriched to 60 percent U-235, revealed in 2009.
Forebay
A forebay is a basin or reservoir immediately upstream of a hydropower plant's intake, where the channel ends and the penstock carries water to the turbines.
Forest harvesting residues
Forest harvesting residues, also called logging residues or slash, are the woody material left after timber harvesting: branches, tops, stumps, and unmerchantable trees, used for bioenergy.
Form Energy
Form Energy is an American energy storage company, founded in 2017 and based in Somerville, Massachusetts, that makes rechargeable iron-air batteries storing electricity for up to 100 hours.
Formamidinium lead iodide
FAPbI3, or formamidinium lead triiodide, is a halide perovskite whose 1.48 eV bandgap makes it the leading light absorber in perovskite solar cells above 26% efficiency.
Formamidinium perovskite solar cells
Formamidinium perovskite solar cells are photovoltaic devices whose absorber, formamidinium lead triiodide (FAPbI₃), offers a narrow 1.48 eV band gap and certified efficiencies of 26.7%, though stabilizing its photoactive black phase remains the main challenge.
Formamidinium tin iodide
Formamidinium tin iodide (FASnI₃) is a lead-free tin halide perovskite with a 1.41 eV band gap, the composition behind the highest efficiencies for tin perovskite solar cells.
Formation microimager
The formation microimager is a wireline well-logging tool producing high-resolution electrical images of the borehole wall; its successor, the Fullbore Formation MicroImager (FMI), was introduced by Schlumberger.
Formation testing
Formation testing is a downhole well-logging technique, developed in the mid-1950s, that measures fluid pressure in rock formations and retrieves samples, a central tool of reservoir characterization.
Formic acid decomposition for hydrogen release
Formic acid decomposition for hydrogen release is the catalytic splitting of formic acid into hydrogen and carbon dioxide, using the acid as a liquid hydrogen carrier.
Formula rate plan
A formula rate plan (FRP) is a utility ratemaking mechanism in which a state regulator adjusts base rates each year by formula, comparing earned returns to a target.
Forney energy center
