SCALE-UP OF SOLAR AND WIND PUTS EXISTING COAL, GAS AT RISK
Solar, wind and batteries see dramatic gains in competitiveness over the last six months compared to longer-established energy options
NRL power-beaming demonstrated on International Space Station
Meir showed how NRL's LEctenna™, a light-emitting rectifying antenna, converted a wireless network signal, similar to home networks, into electric power. While the current generated and light emitted was a small amount, the setup proved the concept in space.
Wind is now America's largest renewable energy provider and the top choice for new utility-scale power
Annual market report shows wind industry topped 100 GW, employed 120,000 Americans, invested $14 billion in new projects, and provided $1.6 billion in local payments to communities and landowners last year.
How the Renewable Energy Market Is Being Impacted by COVID-19
The success of the sustainable energy industry is challenging to determine at this time. While it has some of the same obstacles to overcome as other industries, there are also some promising signs.
NREL Six-Junction Solar Cell Sets Two World Records for Efficiency
The six-junction solar cell now holds the world record for the highest solar conversion efficiency at 47.1%, which was measured under concentrated illumination. A variation of the same cell also set the efficiency record under one-sun illumination at 39.2%.
Switchgear Protection Solutions and Efficient Energy Management
If certain activities result in changes to the load, companies end up bearing huge losses because of failure of system or damage to expensive equipment. Therefore, the entire power system must be protected using a switchgear system.
SOLAR 20/20: Renewable Energy Vision Goes Virtual
After much deliberation, the NOC has ultimately decided to convert the live event in Washington D.C. to a virtual conference in order to ensure the safety and health of our attendees, speakers, and sponsors.
ZERO-PLUS Project: Building the residential settlements of the future
The ZERO-PLUS project has developed and implemented a comprehensive and cost effective system composed of innovative solutions for the building envelope, for building energy generation and for energy management at the settlement level.
Carbon Offsetting - Invest in the Future
Amid other problems, one of the UK's major challenges in modern times is how to tackle the ever-present issue of climate change. As our population and economy has grown dramatically, so has the pressure on the environment as the demand for energy spikes.
'HYDROGEN ECONOMY' OFFERS PROMISING PATH TO DECARBONIZATION
The falling cost of making hydrogen from wind and solar power offers a promising route to cutting emissions in some of the most fossil fuel dependent sectors of the economy, such as steel, heavy-duty vehicles, shipping and cement.
