Medicine & TechnologyThe US Department of Energy has recently awarded a grant to RTI International, CEMEX -- leading cement, concrete, and aggregates supplier on developing a CO2 capture system and commercially available carbon utilization solution.
Since 2009, Green Development has played an essential role in transforming and diversifying Rhode Island's energy portfolio via wind, solar, and battery storage
Denmark is currently planning to build an artificial island to serve as a clean energy hub and, in the long run, produce zero-carbon fuel through wind power.
Researchers from the University of Buffalo developed a hybrid prototype that absorbs emitted heat from buildings and spaces while re-emitting infrared waves to space, effectively cooling the surroundings.
A new study suggests that people living in areas exposed to high levels of artificial lights at night may be facing higher risks of developing thyroid cancer later in life.
Generally speaking, piezoelectric materials - those that generate electrical energy when pressure is applied to them - start to lose effectivity in high-temperature environments. A team from Pennsylvania State University and QorTek work past these limitations.
Computer scientists and experts in energy technology have recently teamed up to leverage artificial intelligence or AI's diagnostic power to make solar-power plants more efficient.
Engineers recently devised machines to remove carbon dioxide from the air, and this development took place after CO2 concentration in the atmosphere was gauged at 414 parts per million or ppm.
With the help of nanomaterials, researchers found a way to improve hybrid flow batteries' performance - making the store energy longer at a lower cost, fewer location restraints, and zero emissions.
Scientists from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have managed to create a smaller version of the optical components that can cool atoms down close to absolute zero - a few thousandths of a degree from 0 Kelvins.
