Sandia researcher Jeff Tsao and colleagues have published a follow-up paper in the journal Energy Policy regarding the productivity gains to be realized with…
You can count about 150 manufacturers of these and IDTechEx has profiled nearly all of them. We expect 200 manufacturers of lithium-ion batteries soon, mainly…
The program will repay its investment costs of €1.9 million in about four and a half years. At the same time, the location now emits one fourth less carbon…
This technology exploits the network's efficiency potential and makes it easier to integrate decentralized generation such as small hydroelectric power plants…
The use of offshore wind energy in Germany officially started in April 2010 with the commissioning of twelve wind turbines at the alpha ventus test field. The…
A team of researchers has developed a cheap, rechargeable and eco-friendly battery that could be used to store energy at solar power plants for a rainy day.Led…
A work tool, a leisure activity resource, a personal assistant – computers are ubiquitous. Yet the environmental performance for today‘s computers leaves a lot…
For a motorized hangglider or a one-seater weighing 300 kilograms: the business of flying by ultra-light aircraft is booming. That is also why numerous…
Soon there will be no need for special timers to switch lighting on and off or operate household appliances when the homeowner is absent. In future, all this…
Though VAWTs have been around since the earliest days of wind energy research at Sandia and elsewhere, VAWT architecture could transform offshore wind…
Measuring 75 meters in length, the blades are almost as big as the wingspan of an Airbus A380. Beginning this fall, the B75 rotor blades will be installed into…
Researchers from the University of Toronto (U of T) and King Abdullah University of Science & Technology (KAUST) have made a breakthrough in the development of…
A technology that would enable low-cost, high efficiency solar cells to be made from virtually any semiconductor material has been developed by researchers…
Innovative devices that convert sunlight to electric power more efficiently and cost effectively than the current generation of solar cell technology are the…
In the last decade, small and distributed energy resources (DERs), like wind farms and solar panels, have begun to appear in greater numbers in the electricity…
The UCLA team describes a new kind of polymer solar cell (PSC) that produces energy by absorbing mainly infrared light, not visible light, making the cells…
