HEADLINES ARCHIVE

  • A future for fusion in space missions

    A propulsion system under development can significantly cut transit time to Mars and other planets with exhaust speeds in excess of 500,000 miles per hour.

  • Yokogawa to supply energy management system for Yuri Green Hydrogen Project in Australia

    The system will be integrated with an 18 MW solar power plant, an 8 MW battery energy storage system and a 10 MW electrolyzer.

  • See a flexible battery for smart contact lenses

    An ultrathin flexible battery developed to power smart contact lenses stores electricity when immersed in saline solution.

  • KDSI-SR modular cable entry installed from the outside

    The inverse and modular cable entry system is designed for reliable sealing, maximum flexibility and time saving feed-through of cables with and without plugs.

  • A test of solar-powered water purification

    A photoelectrochemical system demonstrated as a renewable energy-based route to efficient water purification and remediation.

  • Finding faults in power systems

    Quick fault detection and repair can limit damage, restore service with minimal interruption and prevent blackouts.

  • Reach the pinnacle of performance and reliability

    Fuji Electric Co., Ltd. delivers high-performance and energy saving AC drives, semiconductors, regenerative blowers, instrumentation and UPS products.

  • Consider climate change in solar energy project plans

    Climate change is exerting a significant impact on solar energy generation in the U.S., according to a recent study conducted by climate and energy analytics company Sunairio.

  • SABIC debuts LNP THERMOCOMP compound to help facilitate adoption of LDS antennas and advance device production

    The compound offers better chemical resistance and hydrolytic stability, and lower warpage to benefit laser direct structuring (LDS) of antennas.

  • A record rate for harnessing geothermal heat

    Fracking technology employed by the oil and gas industry was used to successfully drill the first horizontal well pair for commercial geothermal production.

  • New Rosenberg 560 mm Gen 3+ EC plug fan sets the standards for low noise, high efficiency and airflow

    The backward-curved fan module delivers more efficiency, less noise and higher airflow for data center cooling and air handling units, as well as wind power, compressor and transformer cooling applications.

  • Assessing drivetrain designs for larger offshore wind turbines

    Conceptual designs for three drivetrain technologies were developed and evaluated for use with large offshore wind turbines.

  • Flow batteries for grid-scale energy storage

    The development of flow batteries for large-scale, long-duration energy storage has been hindered by the complexity of the system design. In response to this challenge, scientists from MIT have developed a modeling framework that can be used to speed up the development process.

  • Sourcing steam from a hybrid solar-sand storage system

    Use of both a photovoltaic system coupled to sand-based thermal storage and solar thermal energy separately can economically provide steam to industrial facilities.

  • This hybrid battery can multitask

    A rechargeable biomass battery integrates electricity storage/generation and electrosynthesis of useful chemicals from furfural in one system.

  • Video: A nuclear route to sustainable shipping

    Small lead-cooled reactor technology is being advanced to help the marine shipping sector achieve net zero emissions goals.

  • An urban blueprint for building EV charging capacity

    A free technical resource is available to help larger communities secure federal funding and plan for electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure.

  • Lunar rover to be fuel cell-driven

    As part of a lunar polar exploration mission project led by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, Toyota is developing a regenerative fuel cell for the Lunar Cruiser manned pressurized rover.

  • Bidding structures to accommodate renewables in electricity markets

    The bidding mechanism is a crucial feature of any energy market design, as it determines the method by which buyers and sellers communicate their techno-economic preferences and needs to the market clearing mechanism.

  • Tribid train on track in Italy

    The first European train fleet featuring tribid technology — denoting the capability to operate on battery, electric and diesel power — is now riding the rails in Italy.
