Video: HUBER+SUHNER expands RADOX EV-C pass through system with multi-core cables
The multi-core cable system is engineered for use with auxiliary devices within electric vehicles.
New right angle 2.92 mm cable assemblies and connectors
The 2.92 mm connector was developed for use to 40 GHz.
Natural gas rules the US power sector
The primary fuel commanded 43% of generating capacity and provided 39% of electricity generation in 2019, more than any other source.
The geography of power transmission in California
Energy providers source resources far from demand loads to the detriment of efficiency and sustainability metrics.
Watch: Renewable energy trifecta to replace coal in Oregon
The era of coal-based power in Oregon has ended with the closure of the only coal-fired power facility in the state.
Shore-based power planned for Dutch and Belgian ports
The provision of shore-based power for inland ports is expected to curb emissions associated with diesel-based energy systems operated on moored vessels.
An improved organic redox flow battery
A redox flow battery designed with a water-based electrolyte and electrodes composed of organic material has been assembled and demonstrated.
Watch: A new ShAPE for efficient copper wire
A new extrusion process and the inclusion of this material yield copper wire that is 5% more conductive than annealed copper, the industry standard for motor applications.
Narrowing the cost path to inertial fusion power
A modeling analysis indicates that inertial fusion may be able to compete directly with renewables in terms of cost.
Watch: First room-temperature superconductor developed
The thermal challenge to broader deployment of superconductors may have been overcome with the discovery of a material capable of superconductivity at room temperature.
The case for nuclear cogeneration in the UK
A new generation of nuclear reactors could help the U.K. contain carbon emissions by harnessing surplus energy to heat homes, produce hydrogen and decarbonize industry.
