A group of engineers and biologists from the University of Surrey have synthesized nanoparticles that mimic the action of chlorophyll (the green plant pigment in most plants) in nature – they absorb light and convert it into usable energy with high efficiency, Cell Reports Physical Science informed. Past approaches could not match what nature has …
Chinese renewable energy engineering company Guangdong No. 2 Hydropower Engineering is launching the long-anticipated 2,000 MW solar power project, according to Yicai Global. The amount of investment is 10 billion yuan ($1.5 billion) and the project is expected to double the company’s capacity to produce electricity from renewable sources. The commissioning of a power plant …

In large cities, the difference between peak and average electricity consumption can reach several times – a serious burden on the entire energy infrastructure, because if one increases the capacity of the power plant to the highest parameters, then they will not be in demand at another time – unlike skyscrapers for example. To smooth …

Scientists in the US have created an artificial enzyme that can digest the most complex and most resistant part of wood polymer – lignin, which can be used as a renewable energy source. Lignin is found in all vascular plants: it forms cell walls, gives rigidity, allows trees to stand, and occupies 20-35% of the …

When offshore wind farms appear, a period of noisy but well-researched and regulated construction begins. Once the turbines are up and running, they will become a valuable renewable energy source while emitting consistently lower noise levels. Frank Thomsen of DHI discusses how this constant noise can affect wildlife in his presentation “Underwater Noise from Future …

A group of microbiologists at the Goethe University in Frankfurt have succeeded in using bacteria to control hydrogen storage and release it – which represents an essential step in the search for carbon-neutral energy sources in the interests of climate protection. The fight against climate change searches for carbon-neutral energy sources ever more urgent. “Green” …
