One of the most important environmental commitments of the German nation, to replace fossil fuel generated power for solar & wind-generated electricity, presents serious challenges as we all can expect. Such objectives stem from its new goal of raising...
Gecko’s feet for adhesion, lotus leaf for hydrophobicity, moth’s eyes for reduction of reflectivity in solar cells, and electric eels for power generation – these are just a few examples of how we can study nature and apply them...
Mazda is said to be working on a gasoline engine to be as environmentally efficient as electric cars. Its latest high compression engine technology for producing the future engine is dubbed Skyactiv-3, and it follows the first generation engines...
When our personal smart devices run out of batteries and we forgot to bring chargers, and worse, we are stuck in a place where no power sources, how we could wish our own body movements could charge them up. ...
Last year Elon Musk offered to build the largest storage battery installation in the world in South Australia. This would be no ordinary proposal, even less ordinary when he boasted about doing it in 100 days, or else the service...
Even though the bodyworks of cars can be recycled, the process would require a huge amount of energy to make use of these metals again.
To make vehicles more recyclable and greener than ever, the idea of biodegradable cars started....
The organic solar cell technology promises low-cost manufacturing, abundant raw materials, and lightweight, flexible substrates. These benefits address the limitations of current photovoltaic cells on the market. However, the efficiency of this cheaper and more sustainable alternative to silicon-based...
By 2028, the world will be mostly powered by solar energy. This is the bold prediction of Ray Kurzweil, the man who also predicted the mobile internet, cloud computing, and wearable technologies about two decades ago.
The basis? Starting from...
A U.S. community microgrid project is in the making in Warner, New Hampshire, to harness the potential solar-derived power coming from individual units in random buildings, making it available as needed once plugged into the existing electrical grid distribution system.
The...
“One of our main demands is that any country who signs a trade agreement with EU should implement the Paris Agreement on the ground. No Paris Agreement, no trade agreement. The US knows what to expect,” states French foreign affairs...
