    The combination of low charge designs, proven cold climate performance and effective defrost control positions R290 heat pumps for wider use in residential and light commercial markets.

  • Potable water produced by solar evaporator

    When placed on seawater, the device heats the water, causing it to evaporate and then condense into fresh drinking water — all without needing external electricity input.

  • Siemens and 1898 & Co. collaborate to automate critical grid protection

    The turnkey solution that replaces static spreadsheets with dynamic digital twins to support autonomous grid development.

  • Solar powers this EV on the go

    If the sun is shining, this EV can charge itself by means of 3.8 m² of solar panels integrated across the hood, roof and tailgate.

  • Photovoltaic efficiency gain for this solar cell material

    A new performance benchmark has been established for antimony chalcogenide solar cells.

  • A 100-hour battery for clean energy storage

    The technology provides ultra-long-duration energy storage for thousands of hours and the capacity to deliver clean power continuously for more than 100 hours at a time.

  • Steute Meditec at the WHX Dubai 2026

    Four-pedal foot switches that combine innovative functionality with total flexibility and freedom of movement — ideal for use in the OR — will be highlighted.

  • Indoor energy harvester for battery-free IoT

    A battery-free solution from Dracula Technologies can take a bite out of the ongoing internet of things (IoT) demand surge by harvesting energy from ambient indoor light, whether natural or artificial.

  • Transforming landfills into solar power producers

    At least 50 existing landfill sites in the U.S. will find new life as producers of renewable energy.

  • Design and engineering considerations for floating solar farms

    These components and design considerations are crucial for the safe and optimal performance of photovoltaic modules installed on buoyant structures.

  • Noritz to launch new “Commercial One” tankless water heater marketing campaign at the 2026 AHR Expo in Las Vegas

    The initiative will showcase Noritz’s expanding commercial water heater offerings, led by its flagship product line — the NCC199 CDV Pro.

  • Li-ion storage sites catch heat from residents and officials amid fire concerns

    Resistance to siting large battery energy storage systems near public infrastructure may cool with the advent of new safety and thermal runaway suppression technologies.

  • Digital twin fine-tunes floating solar system performance

    The system uses a physical floating photovoltaic twin deployed on a water surface, with sensors transmitting data to the cloud and to the digital version of the installation.
