The Norwegian company Advanced Marine Coatings based in Gamle Fredrikstad specializes in the development of environmentally compatible, heavy-duty anti-corrosion coatings for sea-going vessels. The "Green Ocean Coating Heavy Duty" coatings are formulated with Baytubes® carbon nanotubes (CNT) from Bayer MaterialScience, which gives them very high abrasion resistance. The coatings also reduce the flow resistance between the ship's hull and the water, thereby enabling a significant reduction in fuel consumption.
A group of researchers at the City College of New York is developing a new way to generate power for planes and automobiles based on materials known as piezoelectrics, which convert the kinetic energy of motion into electricity. They will present their concept later this month at the 62nd Annual Meeting of the American Physical Society's (APS) Division of Fluid Dynamics.
A wide range of energy technologies is usually provided by the United States. The federal level tax credits and depreciation incentives of these energy technologies are currently regarded as insufficient. This hinders the nation’s growth in fulfilling various solar energy demands.
Both the fixed and mobile network operators are much concerned about the operating expenses related to energy consumption. Yet, there is limited availability of electricity in developing countries, where there is scope for higher growth in the area of telecommunications.
Based on the results obtained from 1,500 respondents, almost 83 percent of rubbish is separated by those owning individual homes and only 59 percent of the rubbish is separated by those staying in rented homes. This is so because very few households are installed with solar energy and solar water heating panels.
TransForm has released a new study that discloses that people in California can meet the greenhouse gas reduction targets by changing their car culture. The study titled, ‘Windfall For All: How Connected, Convenient Neighborhoods Can Protect Our Climate and Safeguard California’s Economy,’ has found that the people who live in Los Angeles, San Diego, Sacramento and the Bay Area spend less amount of money in transportation than the other communities that live in areas where public transportation facility is limited. The study finds that if people in these areas had better access to transportation, the state would be able to save as much as $31 billion annually on the cost of transportation and emit 34% less greenhouse gas emissions.
