World Energy Storage Day: Fixing Flaws in Li-ion Batteries
IDTechEx have forecasted lithium-ion battery demand to reach over 2500 GWh for electric vehicles alone. However, the uptake of lithium-ion batteries is not without cost - they still present both technological and environmental problems.
Value of PLC Key Switch Monitoring to Keep Critical Systems More Secure
The key switch has become commonplace for automation engineers and technicians who maintain and support these systems and understand the importance of the little switch in overall device operation and affects the underlying process.
Solar Creating Resilience in Disaster-Hit Areas
Environmental engineers developed a solar storage system, creating an abundant energy supply before a storm hits. Instead of directly transferring electricity to local homes, the technology stores energy in shipping containers as green hydrogen.
4 Innovations for a Post-Carbon Transportation System
Before we examine the transportation innovations for a post-carbon country, we must assess the ecologically degrading features of conventional systems.
How Data Centers are Using Hydrogen Fuel Cells
Owners can shrink their carbon footprints by powering their centers' generators with alternative energy. Hydrogen fuel cells effectively reduce emissions, converting a company's electricity reliance away from diesel towards sustainable options.
Understanding Wind Turbine Fire Protection
A whopping 90% or more of wind turbine fires originate in the nacelle. The nacelle contains the gear box, the generator, the controller, the low- and high-speed shafts, and the brake-and it (the nacelle) sits atop the tower.
CAREFUL POLICY DESIGN COULD UNLOCK MASSIVE ROOFTOP SOLAR MARKET AROUND THE WORLD
New BloombergNEF and Schneider Electric report finds rooftop solar market still largely untapped with potential to exceed 2,000 gigawatts of solar and 1,000 gigawatt-hours of energy storage by 2050
Green Software - A New Trend for a Better Planet
How to call the wider group of companies which bring to market innovations that could replace existing technologies with more environmental-friendly ones, even if their primary goal doesn't strictly align with the definition of Green Tech?
Why Are Environmental Tests Crucial for Solar Power Success?
Many leading solar panel manufacturers guarantee their products for 25 years. However, investigations show that the equipment often fails much sooner than that. Researchers sought to find out why.
First Ward Park Combines Air and Sun with Smartflower
The Smartflower is connected to First Ward Park's general electrical system, meaning that the energy it produces will offset park lighting, restrooms, its upcoming Air Quality Learning Station (AQLS), and all other electrical uses.
Rising Demand for EVs Will Disrupt Auto Manufacturing
The most significant transformations are likely to happen in factories, where the differences between EV and ICE vehicles could reshape workflows and drastically reduce labor hours.
3 Best-Practice Initiatives to Mitigate Risks of Cyber Attacks
Cybersecurity risks have become a major headache for utilities. Attacks have been escalating in intensity, as well as frequency. Leaders must prioritize these key areas if they are to mitigate the risks of cyberattacks that will surely keep coming.
DRINKing It in: Five Teams and Their Desalination Designs Earn a Spot in Final Stage of Waves to Water Prize Competition
This month, DOE and NREL officially announced the five teams that earned a spot in the fifth and final competition stage, DRINK. Now, these five have 180 days to prepare their devices for an open-ocean trial at the Coastal Studies Institute in North Carolina in April 2022.
The Top 10 Most Common Myths about Traditional DC Power Optimizers: Part 2
In part one of this blog post series we talked about how MLPE technologies impact performance and shared five common myths about power optimizers. In this second post, SMA expert Blair Reynolds continues providing clarification on five more of the most common misconceptions.
