The University of Louisville Conn Center for Renewable Energy Research has formed a partnership with a South Carolina company to accelerate commercialization of a coal-like product made from wood and biomass materials.
A team of researchers from the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and LMI has performed a study which revealed that the speed of global warming over the last 15 years of this century has been as fast or faster when compared to the rate seen over the last half of the 20th century. The study, which has been published online in the journal Science, contradicts the idea that there has been a hiatus or slowdown in the rate of global warming over the past few years. The researchers used the new global surface temperature data to arrive at this conclusion.
An immensely powerful yet invisible force pulls water from the earth to the top of the tallest redwood and delivers snow to the tops of the Himalayas.
Life without bright screens on our smart phones and TVs is hard to imagine. But in 20 years, one of the essential components of the liquid-crystal displays, or LCDs, that make many of our gadgets possible could disappear. To address the potential shortage of this component -- the element indium -- scientists report in the journal ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering a new way to recover the valuable metal so it could be recycled.
Abengoa, the international company that applies innovative technology solutions for sustainability in the energy and environment sectors, has begun construction of the Tres Mesas wind farm in the towns of Llera de Canales and Casas, around 40 km south of Ciudad Victoria in the state of Tamaulipas (Mexico).
The Rocky Mountains certainly aren't known for their mild winters. But in contrast to the upper Midwest, which seems to exist in a perpetually frozen state from November through March, the plains just east of the Rockies do get an occasional reprieve from the bitter cold: the Chinook winds.
KIC InnoEnergy, the European company for innovation, education and business creation in sustainable energy, and Climate-KIC, the EU’s main climate innovation initiative, are today celebrating the success of three of their projects at the EIT Awards, presented at InnovEIT in Budapest last night.
Abengoa, the international company that applies innovative technology solutions for sustainability in the energy and environment sectors, has been selected by Fulcrum BioEnergy, Inc., to build the first biorefinery using gasification technology to convert municipal solid waste (MSW) into syncrude that will be upgraded into jet fuel. The contract is worth approximately US$200 million.
Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) will jointly develop technological solutions for energy efficiency and sustainable development in the tropics.
Sharp’s new PV energy harvesting technology generates six times more power than conventional devices for a given surface area, translating to dramatically higher energy budgets for applications such as building automation, wearable devices, wireless sensors, and low-power displays.
