HEADLINES ARCHIVE

  • Cable carrier as a compact, cost-effective energy supply system

    The new igus e-chain cable carrier is made entirely of recyclate and can be installed in seconds to guide cables reliably.

  • A digital twin for the first commercial fusion facility

    Supercomputing, artificial intelligence and the Industrial Metaverse will advance development of the U.K.'s prototype fusion power plant.

  • Video: A modular nuclear approach to decarbonize district heating

    Each of these small modular reactors can supply district heating needs for a small city and displace fossil fuel-based heating networks.

  • Hybrid scheme enhances energy storage efficiency

    Gravity energy storage and power-based storage systems, such as batteries and supercapacitors, can be combined in a single system.

  • Pushing the boundaries of packaging innovation

    From chip scale packaging to multi-octave M-Package designs, Marki Microwave continues to lead in packaging innovation.

  • Video: Elastocaloric cooling tech is heating up

    Rather than using a refrigerant circuit containing a working fluid, the technology instead relies on pushing and pulling pieces of metal to initiate phase transition and create cooling.

  • Comau is developing innovative battery cell formation solutions with the GIGABAT project

    Comau is designing energy-efficient cell formation technologies for GIGABAT, a collaborative e-mobility project aimed at strengthening the EU production chain for large-scale cell manufacturing.

  • Help advance space-based solar power tech

    Join researchers in developing key technologies for collecting solar power in space and wirelessly transmitting it to Earth.

  • Warming European homes with heat pumps-as-a-service

    Heat pump systems will be provided under a subscription model to reduce residential carbon emissions and dependence on foreign gas imports.

  • Solar energy powers this off-grid air conditioner

    After being fully charged, batteries can power the system for seven hours, indicating the practical feasibility of the solar powered off-grid air conditioning system.

  • Connectors designed for tight installation spaces

    Where secure electrical connections need to be established in confined spaces, angled versions of these connectors with snap-in or bayonet locking provide a reliable and space-saving alternative to the straight versions.

  • Optimizing PV-battery-electrolyzer-fuel cell energy system design

    An approach is proposed to size a photovoltaic (PV)-battery-electrolyzer-fuel cell energy system for off-grid and remote area use.

  • Hydrogen-electric airline set to take off

    The world’s first electric airline powered by renewable energy will launch operations in the U.K. in 2024.

  • The global warming impact of hydrogen

    While hydrogen combustion releases only water vapor and oxygen, it can be a contributor to climate modification due to leakage during production, transportation and usage that adds to global warming.

  • FPT Industrial and Reefilla: Partners for sustainability. A new project gives a second life to electric vehicle batteries

    Recovered battery components will be installed in mobile power banks for use in recharging electric vehicles.

  • DOE competition to strengthen the US circular wind energy economy

    The competition seeks to foster development of a cost-effective, sustainable recycling industry for fiber-reinforced composites and rare Earth elements, two high-impact categories of wind turbine materials.

  • Basics of steam turbines

    As simple as steam turbines’ operation might seem, there are several essential components and calculations that guide the design and operation of these amazing devices.

  • Meet this digital solution that removes the guesswork of machine cabling

    EPLAN is changing the traditional way of cabling estimation in large machinery by giving designers a digitalized view of their system.

  • New subsea power cable cutting, clamping tool launched

    Credeblug and Tecnalia are jointly improving the maintenance and repair operations carried out on underwater power cables with the development of a cutting and clamping tool, designed to secure one end of a cable after it has been cut, thereby saving both time and money.

  • Unique co-axial cable solutions offer high-performing flexibility

    Flexco's cable design and construction techniques offer superior phase stability over a wide range of operational temperatures and bending displacements.
