Solar energy has improved over the years, but it’s far from perfect. Experts still need to find ways to increase the efficiency of solar cells and maximize their output. They also need to develop the technology that will make solar panels more affordable for ordinary consumers or at least justify their high upfront costs. Materials […]
Continue ReadingA team of researchers from Ruhr-Universität Bochum have found out how green algae produce an enzyme that’s used in creating renewable hydrogen. This discovery can be used to understand how hydrogen can be produced through biotechnological means and eventually used to supplement or even replace fossil fuels as an energy source. Hydrogenase production in […]

Continue ReadingA team of Dutch inventors from tech start-up, Envinity Group, came up with a solution to minimize air pollution and from which the whole world may benefit from in the near future. The invention is a giant outside air vacuum cleaner that will filter fine and ultra-fine toxic particles present in the atmosphere. According to […]
Continue ReadingSourced from Pixabay For renewable energy projects to take place, people have to be willing to pay for them. Attracting investors is essential for any country to grow their use of green energy. With many investors still wanting to put their money into fossil fuels, convincing them to look at renewables isn’t easy. Even those […]
Continue ReadingAs early as February this year, there have already been reports of breakthroughs in energy storage technology, particularly in the industry of superconductors. In a research study, a German team talks about improving the capacity of energy storage via a hybrid mix of potassium ferricyanide in aqueous media as opposed to the capacitors being used […]
Continue ReadingWave power is increasingly becoming popular, gradually gaining momentum. Recently, the US Department of Energy (DOE) announced funding of up to $40 million for the development of the first open-water wave-energy-testing facility in the country. For several years, wave energy has failed to keep pace with solar and wind energy, partly because harnessing this power […]
Continue ReadingKarma Automotive has unveiled the Revero, a hybrid car with a solar panel roof. Its looks strongly resemble that of the Fisker Karma that had been designed by Henrik Fisker, and that’s not a coincidence. Everybody had liked the sleek looks of the Fisker Karma; it was its unreliability that had been the problem. Even worse, […]
