With the market for solar power plants growing rapidly, the challenge to design them as efficiently as possible is being met by software developers from the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany working closely with Siemens Energy Photovoltaics. The market for photovoltaic...
Scientists have succeeded in harnessing a greater amount of energy than in the past from bacteria normally found far overhead in the Earth’s atmosphere, Bacillus stratosphericus, by incorporating it into a novel new biofilm used in Microbial Fuel Cells (MFC). The...
Whether it’s turning off a light when leaving a room, checking the tire pressure on a car or adding insulation to an attic, every contribution towards energy conservation helps preserves Earth’s finite natural resources. Conservation helps slow down the effects of...
While massive wind farms, large-scale solar panel arrays and huge hydroelectric power plants are all vital players when it comes to clean energy solutions, there are plenty of smaller-scale products and technologies that are clean and green as well. Solar technology,...
Implementing energy-saving technologies, materials and processes into the products that people use every day not only helps preserve the planet’s limited natural resources but limits the amount of harmful gases that are released into the atmosphere as well. From a...
