One of the more interesting areas of battery research centers on how these devices can not just store energy, but also double as structural components.
As we detailed earlier, as Chileans overwhelmingly chose leftist and independent candidates for the country's constitutional convention, the new non-free-market-friendly political regime is generating a lot of uncertainly in Chilean markets.
Australian University is partnering to commercialize aluminium ion batteries which can charge up to 70 times faster, had a more efficient and longer life and were more sustainable than lithium-ion.
Australian photovoltaics researchers have made a 'cool' discovery: Singlet fission and tandem solar cells which increase efficiency and lower operating temperatures and keep devices running for longer.
The 100-foot, repurposed catamaran is sailing around the the world to prove that the most abundant element in the universe is key to building a cleaner future.
Elon Musk indicates that Tesla will stop using Bitcoin for transactions. Tesla wants to use cryptocurrencies that are at least 100 times energy-efficient per transaction.
In a stunning reversal to the official narrative in which the good guys lost and those evil "Russian" hackers ended up with nothing, Bloomberg reports that Colonial paid the DarkSide hackers approximately $5 million in cryptocurrency (which Bloomber
The island of Jersey gets 95% of its electricity via cables from France. The latest post-Brexit fishing dispute got so hot so fast, that a French minister even suggested cutting off the electricity if they didn't get their way.
The Western World has mostly succeeded in reducing emissions by shifting their emissions to factories in developing nations. In industries like Steel, Cement and Plastic as much as 20 – 50% of all production has gone overseas.
All this was achie
Researchers have used carbon dots, created from human hair waste sourced from a barbershop, to create a kind of 'armor' to improve the performance of cutting-edge solar technology.
We are tearing down a giant lithium battery that came out of a Volvo car. This came out of an EV (electric vehicle) or a hybrid vehicle. It's a very impressive piece of engineering. Ben is using this battery to power his house with solar panels an
Californians pay for some of the most expensive electricity in the United States. They also live in one of the greenest states, at least from an energy perspective. California is only going to get greener.
Victorians building new homes will be denied the choice to pick their preferred heating and cooking appliances in the hope that this will stop storms and droughts for their great grandchildren.
BEIJING -- China has ambitious goals for cutting its carbon emissions, but it won't be abandoning coal power anytime soon as it keeps its eye firmly on economic targets.
California is set to be home to two new compressed-air energy storage facilities – each claiming the crown for the world's largest non-hydro energy storage system. Developed by Hydrostor, the facilities will have an output of 500 MW and be capabl
Many people couldn't help but laugh when Biden told the Boris Johnson on March 26 that the USA and it's NATO allies should create "an infrastructure plan to rival the Belt and Road Initiative" post haste.
Scientists have found that volcanoes deep in the ocean discharge so much energy potential when they erupt that they could theoretically power the whole of the United States.
