A recent perspective paper in Natural Climate Change offers novel Demand-side Strategies to dramatically reduce the consumption of resources and fossil fuel air pollution. This study, led by Felix Creutzig of the Mercator Research Institute on Global Commons and Climate Change (MCC) in Berlin, Germany, involves inputs from IIASA researchers Alessio [...]
According to University of Michigan research, devices that convert heat into electric energy are becoming more realistic for grid applications, with a 44% efficiency rating. This is a big step toward the theoretical ideal efficiency for such technology. Revolutionary Heat Batteries: Heat batteries emerged as a promising way to store intermittent renewable energy. [...]
Carbon dioxide (CO2), which contributes significantly to emissions of greenhouse gases and global warming, can converted from a pollution to a beneficial resource. Scientists from the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, Northern Illinois University, and Valparaiso University invented an array of tin-based catalysts able to convert CO2 into widely produced chemicals [...]
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) recently approved dramatic changes to the financing and planning processes that govern the nation’s electric grids. The laying down of thousands of miles of new high-voltage electrical lines is expected to speed up by this decision, which is the most significant in more than ten years. The supporters believe that these adjustments will [...]
The Biden administration has unveiled an ambitious plan to address those critical problems amid growing worries over the effects of climate change and environmental damage. President Biden has demonstrated an enhanced dedication to environmental stability and safety through several executive orders, administrative acts, and legislative proposals. Below explore the potential effects of ten key environmental laws that the [...]
In this era of a constantly changing world of energy generation and utilization, the US is in the course of evolutionary change. Massive batteries are transforming the production, usage, storage, and distribution all over the country. This article looks into the abilities of huge batteries and their impact on the [...]
In the ongoing fight against fuel poverty and climate change, the fusion of wind power and heat pumps presents a promising avenue. The report by UK climate action charity Possible underscores the remarkable synergy between these technologies, offering substantial reductions in energy costs and carbon emissions. This innovative approach holds [...]
Chile stands at the forefront of the battle against climate change with its vigorous pursuit of renewable energy solutions. Nestled in the heart of the Atacama Desert, the nation boasts the only solar thermal tower in Latin America, signaling a monumental shift away from fossil fuels towards a sustainable future. [...]
