Waves hold enough energy to meet about 60% of U.S. electricity demand. We cannot harness the power of every wave, but if we can capture even some, that energy could help power coastal communities and […]
When we moved into our house, there was a shed in the garden. Its timbers were rotten, the floor had long since disappeared into the ground, there was no door, the window had fallen out […]
Demand-side flexibility, the ability to adjust electricity consumption in response to system needs, is often highlighted as a key tool for managing both growing electrification and a higher share of variable renewable energy, and is […]
A little-known fact: In the year 1900, electric cars outnumbered gas-powered ones on the American road. The lead-acid auto battery of the time, courtesy of Thomas Edison, was expensive and had a range of only […]
In the U.K., 28 million households consume 25% of the total energy and contribute to 25% of the carbon emissions. Focusing on sustainability and energy efficiency within the building sector is vital if the U.K. […]
Hydrogen is widely regarded as one of the cleanest fuels for the future, producing only water when used. However, generating hydrogen efficiently and sustainably remains a major challenge. Most current technologies waste a large portion […]
As solar energy rapidly expands to meet urgent climate targets and increasing demand for electricity, the key challenge is to ensure that this transition is not just scalable but sustainable. Pioneering research led by Northumbria […]
Lithium-ion batteries serve as the core energy storage devices in various industries and everyday products, including smartphones, electric vehicles, and ESS (energy storage systems). However, conventional lithium-ion batteries use liquid electrolytes, posing a risk of […]
Industrial heating accounts for about 14% of U.K. emissions but about half of the energy used in U.K. industry is lost as waste heat, according to a new report. Analysis supported by expertise from Heriot-Watt […]
At the top of the South Dade Landfill, a massive oven that turns wood into charcoal is being tested by Miami-Dade County as an environmentally friendly way to cut down on landfill waste.This article is […]
