A new filter paper produced by Uppsala University scientists in collaboration with German virologists promises to improve water filtration by removing resistant viruses.
Globally, many people lack access to safe drinking water, and being that water-derived infections is a global...
The research team at Alamos National Laboratory recently published a study on the photo-degradation process associated with perovskite solar cells and the surprising small solution to their degradation tendencies. The researchers were able to stabilize the devices by adjusting...
Wind energy statistics from the UK demonstrated a recent milestone in history, as wind was shown to generate more electricity than coal. In April, 2,290 gigawatt hours (GWh) were produced from wind compared to 1,755 GWh produced from coal.
According...
Scientists at the European Space Agency (ESA) claim that levels of carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere have keept rising at a steady rate since 2007, regardless of all efforts.
Last week, at the annual Living Planet Symposium, held in...
Nissan’s new affordable xStorage energy storage system was just revealed in East London, which will be produced in conjunction with Eaton, a power management firm. Made from the company’s recycled electric vehicle batteries, the system has 12 LEAF battery...
