With gas and oil prices at all-time highs, it's only logical for scientists to try to harness some of that solar energy. To that end, three MIT researchers are building a device that mimics photosynthesis-the process plants use to capture and store the sun's vast energy.
An international research team led by Swedish Professor Rajeev Ahuja, Uppsala University, has demonstrated an atomistic mechanism of hydrogen release in magnesium nanoparticles – a potential hydrogen storage material
UTC Power, a United Technologies Corp. company, today announced that the New York Power Authority (NYPA) selected the company to supply 12 fuel cells totaling 4.8 megawatts of power for the Freedom Tower and three other new towers under construction at the World Trade Center site in lower Manhattan.
The National Energy Resources Organization (NERO) last night presented its 2008 annual Innovation Award to UTC Power for its PureCycle(R) system, an advance in geothermal energy production that taps significant, previously unusable geothermal reserves for domestic, renewable, and continuously available power.
VIASPACE Inc., a company that transforms proven space and defense technologies from NASA and the Department of Defense into hardware and software solutions, announced today that its Direct Methanol Fuel Cell Corporation (DMFCC) subsidiary has received an order from Lynntech Inc. of College Station, TX to design and produce formic acid fuel cell cartridges.
Verizon has earned the federal government's prestigious Energy Star Award for operating the nation's largest fuel cell site of its kind, an environmentally friendly call-switching center and office building here.
The old saying that there is strength in numbers also applies to fuel cells. To deliver a high enough power output, a number of cells have to be connected in series. Manufacturers normally stack the fuel cells - a structure consisting of several metal plates, each containing one channel for air and one for hydrogen.
Few car owners would ever think of pouring water down the gas tank; however, as Air Force officials here continue initiatives to redefine the Air Force's energy culture, more Airmen might picture water as an energy source.
HP and Xtreme Energetics (XE), a solar energy system developer based in Livermore, Calif., today announced they have entered into an agreement for the development of a solar energy system designed to generate electricity at twice the efficiency and half the cost of traditional solar panels.
VIASPACE Inc., a company that transforms proven space and defense technologies from NASA and the Department of Defense into hardware and software solutions, announced today that it has entered into distribution agreements for its laser based HS-1000 VIASENSOR relative humidity instrument with WonATech of Korea. WonATech has already purchased their initial unit.
