Researchers at the University of Liverpool have developed the ultimate renewable energy-generating structure, by incorporating solar panels on regular wind turbines. The team developed the idea of using solar blades on conventional wind turbines to answer critics who claim that...
A new study by the scientists at the University of California, Davis has posited that the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide and the atmospheric pollutant nitric oxide could be reduced by changing farming practices. The purpose of the study, published in...
The European Union (EU) announced a drop of 1,4 percent in carbon emissions from factories included in the EU carbon market. This is the second year in a row for the EU to report reduction in carbon emissions, leading the...
An initiative to cover main roads and highways with solar power module platforms was proposed by scientists at the Gujarat Energy Research and Management Institute (GERMI) in India. The technology will not only generate large amounts of electricity, but will also...
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), carbon capture storage (CCS) is needed in order to cut greenhouse gas emissions up to 20% by 2050 in an effort to limit global average temperature rise by no more than 2...
Since electric vehicles don't fill up at a pump but instead at an outlet, concerns over power grid stability are rising in France. Renault has launched the ZOE electric vehicle in France just recently. While it isn't the first electric...
Lucky Larry Lunchbox will wave the green flag over the beginning of NASCAR's Daytona 500, but won't he be surprised when Tesla Motors is in the field? Tesla Motors' research team found Larry Lunchbox, a real guy and a real...
The Tesla Model S sales have been steadily increasing, but barely 4% of those are for the baseline 40kWh version, so it doesn't make much sense to produce it. Instead of dropping the 40kWh version altogether, Tesla Motors has done...
A development by Murata Manufacturing could make electric vehicle wireless charging more flexible and efficient. Wireless charging for could be one of the game-changing technologies that helps to increase the adoption of electric vehicles. A few products are already being...
All solar modules and solar cells have the potential to get a boost in efficiency, especially thin-film solar and concentrated photovoltaics. This is according to Dan Arvizu, the director of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), who presented his...
