Researchers have wanted to use fuel cells to capture carbon dioxide since the early 1990s, and now that the cells are cheaper and last longer, the tactic may be more practical. Carbon dioxide might be removed from exhaust gasses...
Despite recent technological advances, wave power has been very unsuccessful. Initially, attempting to harness the most powerful waves for energy made sense, but experts are finding the cost and effort isn’t viable long-term.
In 2008, the world’s very first commercial...
In order to get consumers into electric vehicles, there needs to be sufficient support infrastructure, such as public-access charging stations.
Of course, just as there is no universal standard for electric vehicle chargers, there is also no universal payment structure....
Fisker Automotive has been suffering of late, after a string of unfortunately occurrences, perhaps some poor decision-making by executives, and the exit of co-founder Henrik Fisker in February.
Henrik Fisker, famous for his designs at Audi and BMW and co-founder...
Researchers have touted graphene as a game-changing material that could boost the power and energy capacity of a lithium-ion battery.
Graphene, a film of carbon atoms just one atom thick, is an excellent conductor of electricity. In a battery, the...
The flow of electrons generates heat, and in an electric vehicle battery pack, excessive heat may damage the cells.
In order to keep an electric vehicle battery running at its most efficient and maximize lifespan, an efficient cooling system is...
Supply and demand have some effect on fuel prices, but there are a lot of intermediate steps that go into the price you pay at the pump.
Of course, it starts with how much it cost to initially extract petroleum...
Researchers from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory developed a new technique that allows removal and storage of atmospheric carbon. Moreover, it can be used as a mean to mitigate ocean acidification, through generating of carbon-negative hydrogen and producing alkalinity.
The...
Researchers from University of Melbourne and Victoria University have developed a method, which allows more reliable and accurate predictions of the range of future global warming.
The findings published in the latest issue of Nature Climate Change indicate that if...
Car manufacturers report lower carbon dioxide emissions than these measured in their actual use, based on fuel consumption.
The non-profit International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) conducted an independent research on vehicle emissions, which aims to mitigate climate change and...
