MN103L: The Newest 32-Bit Microcomputer From Panasonic That Has Green Features
Panasonic has just announced a new type of 32-bit microcomputers specially built for saving power and for flexible designs. Their main achievement of Panasonic is a built-in flash memory, which is the biggest player in the power saving feature.
Fluorographene, The Thinnest Insulator Yet Discovered, Could Have Green Uses
Kostya Novoselov and Andre Geim from the University of Manchester, the winners of this year's Nobel Prize for Physics, found that graphene, otherwise a good thermal and electrical conductor, has quite interesting insulating properties if combined with fluoride.
Luminescent Solar Laser Concentrates Sunlight For The Most Efficient Photovoltaic System
Collecting solar power in cloudy days is really a problem for the solar industry, since it can make this source of energy unreliable and pretty intermittent. An MIT researcher, Carmen Rotschild, presented a solution that would be perfectly suited for this.
Logitech's Solar Powered Wireless Keyboard: Pointless Green In a Plastic Case
A solar powered keyboard has been launched by Logitech yesterday. Not only it will announce you through a special software that it needs recharging, the innovative keyboard also saves precious power... in vain.
Revolutionary Method Of Creating Conductive Transparent Thin Films Discovered by Mistake
A novel method for developing conductive and transparent thin films, that could be used in applications ranging from solar cells to ultracapacitors, has been discovered by a team of UCLA researchers, by mistake.
Non-Intrusive Electricity Meter Could Identify Consumers By Their Signature To Help Saving Power
A special issue of Yale's Journal of Industrial Ecology presents a power consumption monitoring solution that could soon become popular among residential users for about $200 per household.
Aeolus: Wind-Powered Mechanical Desalination System
There are more than two billion people worldwide with no access to drinking water. This is the reason why researchers over the globe are trying to find solutions such as desalination.
GE Applies Jet Engine Technology In Cooling New Type Of LED Light Bulbs
This is the third day in a row that we are presenting the most efficient lighting systems invented recently. Now, it's time for another invention from GE, who made a 1,500-lumen LED light bulb and cooled it through a technology used in aviation.
General Electric Unveils New Hybrid Halogen-CFC Light Bulbs
General Electric has created new halogen compact fluorescent light bulbs, GE Reveal and GE Energy Smart Soft, that unlike typical fluorescents (CFLs), contain less mercury (only 1 milligram) and don't take time to warm up, being more efficient.
Panasonic and Toshiba Enter The Game of LED Lighting With Straight Tube Lamps
While Compact Fluorescent Bulbs have barely been seen in various parts of the world and incandescent lighting still rules in others, two Japanese companies already want to change them for LEDs - straight tube LED lamps, which, they say, are much more economical.
