Innovations In End of Life Solar Panel Disposal & Recycling

Estimates are that approximately 8 million metric tons of solar panels will reach their end-of-life in the next nine years. That amount will increase to 80 million within 30 years. Where will they all go?

Can the Salton Sea geothermal field prevent the coming lithium shortage?

University of California, Riverside scientists will join a first-of-its-kind effort to map out California's so-called "Lithium Valley," and learn whether it can meet America's urgent demand for lithium in a sustainable, environmentally friendly way.

Why Are Wind Turbines Getting Larger?

Larger devices produce more emission-free electricity than smaller variants. Sustainability policies and regulations, like the United Nations (UN) Paris Agreement, may influence wind power's continuous expansion.

A Trip to the Swiss Village Where the World Calibrates Its Solar Monitoring Instruments

Measuring the energy of the sun precisely is not as easy as tracking distances or weight. To set an international standard for solar monitoring instruments radiometers, the World Radiation Centre holds comparison events that result in the World Radiometric Reference.

Decarbonisation Tech Instantly Converts CO2 to Solid Carbon

Researchers have developed a smart and super-efficient new way of capturing carbon dioxide and converting it to solid carbon, to help advance the decarbonisation of heavy industries.

Lead Batteries Will Help Power the Future

Compared to newer battery technologies, lead batteries are inexpensive to manufacture. According to the Department of Energy, lead batteries have a lower capital cost of $260 per kilowatt hour (kWh) compared to lithium at $271 per kWh.

Turlock Irrigation District Selected to Pilot First-In-The-Nation Water-Energy Nexus Project Involving Solar Panels Over Canals

What Technology Is Required for Airlines to Turn to Hydrogen?

A recent study indicates hydrogen planes could account for one-third of passenger air traffic by 2050. Let's look at the technology necessary for these aircraft to run.

IGS to deliver vertical farming solution supporting first solar-powered commercial scale farm in Perth, Australia

The four-tower industrial scale farm will be the centrepiece of the site. It will generate 120 tonnes of produce per annum when it is fully operational next year - including lettuce, spinach, kale and basil, as well as the indigenous crops.

MVRDV's "Sun Rock" Is A Built Manifesto for Taipower's Carbon-free Future

Anticipating Taiwan's planned transition to green energy, the features of the Sun Rock building, from its shape to its façade, are focused upon generating solar energy as efficiently as possible.

Innovations in End of Life Lithium-Ion Battery Disposal & Recycling

To make a lithium-ion battery, the components have to be mined and refined. Cathodes are built, and the batteries are manufactured. When those batteries no longer hold a charge, they have to be recycled to reclaim as many metals and plastics as possible.
