Marina Freitag, Royal Society University Research Fellow, Newcastle University Internet connected devices need power. That either means connecting them to the grid, which [...]
A broad class of materials called perovskites is considered one of the most promising avenues for developing new, more efficient solar cells. But the virtually limitless [...]
Blockchain has always seemed like a natural fit for the energy industry. With its distributed ledger, documenting and tracking capability — not to mention the ability [...]
If you’re looking for the next wave of energy technology that’s just over the horizon, you don’t have to go much farther than Plug and Play’s Summer [...]
The idea of using renewable energy to make renewable fuel is the best of both worlds. A new, stable artificial photosynthesis device doubles the efficiency of harnessing [...]
Sometimes it takes some out-of-the-box thinking to come up with a what seems like a simpler solution to a problem. Physicists at the University of Warwick have published new [...]
The per watt decline in cost of solar cells has led to unprecedented growth in solar energy generation. While the industry is nowhere near to overtaking fossil fuel energy, [...]
Chalk this one up to the accelerated growth of efficient solar technology. In Australia, a railroad company has restored a derelict heritage train to run completely on [...]
If you’re seeking to engage the general population in thinking about renewable energy, you may have an uphill battle. However, one company has figured out a way not only to [...]
The Concept: combine the peak power profile of solar and wind energy to increase net system capacity up to 4%. You got chocolate in my peanut butter! Two great ways to [...]
