Helium balloons are carrying WiFi connectivity to developing regions lacking network infrastructure
These flexible solar panels are made of high-efficiency silicon, like standard panels, but feature a new shape that makes them revolutionary. Let us show you how.
Renewable energy is about to become a part of our daily lives, with a host of new power-generating surfaces such as windows or canopies
The solution to an historic problem affecting airplanes, and other fields like wind energy, could lie in the Namibian desert – in the form of a tiny creature representing a veritable miracle of biodiversity.
This village, capable of generating its own lighting and food production, will be ready to be inhabited as of 2017
The project developed by a Dutch engineering studio consists of a 7-storey, wind-powered “vacuum cleaner” capable of absorbing polluted air, renewing it inside the device, and releasing it back.
Water shortage and drought-related cultivation issues may find an opponent in this revolutionary greenhouse which is already growing thousands of kilos of tomatoes in Australia.
Wind is a great ally in the generation of renewable energy. Wind farms already produce a significant share of global electricity capacity, but the help of wind in fighting climate change might not stop there.
It has been struggling for decades to find commercial viability, but the latest advancements in nanotechnology could spell the beginning of a new era for blue energy, also known as osmotic power.
In France, the first solar road in the world is already operating at full capacity.
A blend of renewable energies capable of getting the most out of each other to optimize consumption in water treatment plants. This is what Renewat project is about: water, energy, and innovation at the service of resource saving and the sustainability of the planet.
These solar tiles could be the answer to the issue of the outrageous visual impact caused by photovoltaic panels in heritage buildings.
The Warka tree, an Ethiopian species, serves as inspiration for this sustainable invention which could be of great help for water-scarce areas.
A new generation of bacteria-based solar PV cells is set to produce electricity even under overcast skies.
Blockchain-enabled certification platforms are opening a slew of possibilities in the small-scale production of renewable energy by citizens from their houses.
Renewable energies are increasingly gaining momentum, but so far they were being hampered by a lack of consistent supply, mainly those relying on solar and wind power. Initiatives such as ACCIONA’s new Hybrid Storage Plant in Navarre (Spain) or Tesla’s endeavor in Australia will bolster this new sustainable energy model.
MIT scientists have developed a graphene-based material that can leverage daily temperature swings to produce electricity.
The one-millimeter thin film is applied over concrete structures and can produce photovoltaic solar energy.
The United Kingdom is adapting its old diesel trains to power them with hydrogen.
Scientists have just announced a new technology able to obtain hydrogen directly from untreated seawater.
Tablets for isolated communities, low-cost incubators or portable hydropower plants for areas without access to electricity are some of the initiatives aiming to transform the world.
