European countries are global leaders in utilising wind power but Denmark is far in front of nearest rival Ireland, which sourced 28% of its power from wind in 2018
There was a time when natural gas was a welcomed byproduct of crude oil drilling, and drillers in the prolific Permian basin enjoyed this consolation prize--at least when natural gas prices were on the rise. All good things come to an end, though, an
Germany is going forward with its plan to phase out nuclear reactors by 2022 as another nuclear power plant went offline last night. Power company EnBW has said that it would take the Philippsburg 2 reactor off the grid at 7 p.m. local time on New Y
If you live in a developed country, it's been clear that the appetite for coal power is falling.
The updated chemistry could mean better performance and longevity at a reduced cost.
M-B helped develop the new technology, which is cheaper and more energy-dense than current Li-Ion batteries.
T. Rowe and BlackRock Inc. were the two major players in the latest investment round for the Plymouth, Michigan-based company as it gears up to compete with Tesla.
A Stanford University professor says the world can go totally green by spending $73 trillion.
Check out our fun speculation based on known quantities.
Australian scientists claim they've worked out a much cheaper, more efficient way to split hydrogen out of water, using easily sourced iron and nickel catalysts instead of expensive, rare ruthenium, platinum and iridium catalysts favored by current l

Can Underwater Turbines Solve Our Energy Problems?
BMW Group, as promised, is securing supplies of key elements (lithium, cobalt) for its lithium-ion cell supplier directly from mining companies.
HZDR (German) scientists are investigating whether controlled fusion could be facilitated with the assistance of tunneling processes using radiation But that is also a question of energy: the lower it is, the lesser the likelihood of tunneling.
Many corners of society stand to gain from advances in battery technology, from automakers, to manufacturers of consumer electronics to all that care about the environment.
Here's something people don't see. As a result of government control, innovation in energy production has slowed to a crawl.
For a sci-fi airplane, the de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver looks nothing like the future: stubby wings, a burly fuselage and two fat pontoons. It first flew in 1947.
This is an update of the system under development by John Brophy and his team and it will use a kilometer-scale, multi-hundred-megawatt phased-array laser to beam power to a vehicle that converts it to electrical power for a multi-megawatt electric p
Robert Adams updated the work on a phase 2 Pulsed Fission-Fusion (PuFF) Propulsion Concept. Robert works at the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center. This system should be able to achieve 15 kW/kg and 30,000 seconds of ISP.
Muon-catalyzed fusion has been studied for 60 years and new work with lasers and ultradense material could lead to commercial nuclear fusion.

As Helen Czerski asks, nuclear fusion energy has been forty years away for the last 70 odd years. Are we getting any closer, Helen visits First Light Fusion in Oxfordshire.
In this episode of Fully Charged News, Robert Llewellyn starts out remaining neutral about the Tesla Cybertruck launch, discusses the new Ford Mustang electric car then tries not to get too ranty about Cobalt use in refining fossil fuels and the prob
And this video proposes exactly that.
While the EU and United States have all but abandoned nuclear energy as a future power source, with almost no new reactors being built and existing ones being decommissioned, Russia has quietly emerged as the world's leading builder of peaceful civ
Electric car makers like Tesla have all of the batteries, engines and electronics in a skateboard. They place the seats and cover on top.
In what is being hailed as a world-first, a German steel plant has just succeeded in powering one of their blast furnaces entirely with hydrogen.
