It is desirable to exploit cost-effective and earth-abundant catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in developing electrochemical energy conversion and storage technologies.
Our result is obtained by means of homogenization, a new technique that, in any intermediate state locally diverging from a given optimal solution T⁎, is able to restore local similarity by exploiting cost differences between nearby players in T⁎.
By contrast, in poor areas of the country high public sector wages bid up the cost of labor, making it hard for these regions to exploit their cost advantage.
And competition is more fierce in small computers, where newcomers have been able to exploit lower cost structures.
Eventually, he said, productivity would pick up because businesses have only started to exploit the cost savings available from increased use of computers and communications technology, which offer a very high rate of return on investment.
"Western companies accessed Poland to exploit low cost labor and sent the profits back to their own countries," he said.
This project also amply demonstrates the opportunities that exist within smallholder production systems to exploit low cost forage production niches within crop production systems and on communally managed lands.
Australian solar developer Dyesol is seeking to exploit low-cost processing to commercialize conventional dye-solar technology liquid electrolyte included.
We Have Created a Monster In the political debate over trade and jobs, China is the place where the world's companies choose to exploit low-cost manufacturing.
Schwab was one of the first companies to exploit low-cost online trading, but competition in the 1990's led Schwab to broaden its business model to pursue wealthy investors.
The new approach has significant potential, scientists said, because it might permit quantum computer designers to exploit low-cost and easily manufacturable components and technologies now widely used in the consumer electronics industry.
