Work is continuing on developing storage technologies for renewable energy generated electricity from sources such as solar and wind. Innovations in storage such as high-speed flywheel, pneumatic, hydrogen and pumped storage are offering competition to the classic chemical battery. E. ON set up in Brandenburg Falkenhagen, a pilot plant for the conversion of electricity from [...]
We are adding a section for investors interested in Solar and Clean energy technology and the companies that are moving the industry forward. We will be doing some deep research into the following industries. Concentrated Solar Photovoltiac Concentrated Solar Parabolic Technology Concentrated Solar Dish - Electric Generation Concentrated Solar to Electric – Towers Concentrated solar Updraft [...]
The U.S. Department of Energy today announced it is accepting applications for a total of up to $74 million to support the research and development of clean, reliable fuel cells for stationary and transportation applications. The solicitations include up to $65 million over three years to fund continued research and development (R&D) on fuel cell [...]
Ultra Green British clean tech company Ultra Green unveils its new technology that can potentially clean up the majority of the estimated four million barrels of oil spilled in the Gulf of Mexico by the end of September. After successfully passing all rigorous safety checks to ensure the rig is seaworthy, the first Ultra Green [...]
S.L. designed the STEP carbon capture process, and together with B.W. conducted and analyzed the electrolysis and solar experiments. S.G., H.A., and J.G. participated in the initial phases (with molten eutectic, rather pure Li2CO3, experiments), and D.J. and H.A., under the direction of S.L., are continuing experiments. The first experimental evidence of a new solar [...]
The Turkish company, Solimpeks Corp., has launched its Volther hybrid photovoltaic-solar thermal collector, which produces electricity and hot water simultaneously. The hybrid system allows extra module heat to be absorbed to produce hot water while optimising efficiency, the company says. Historically, the main drawback of many conventional photovoltaic (PV) systems has been the high initial [...]
The bill for the clean up from the explosion of the deepwater horizon and the months of oil gushing onto the gulf is mounting every day. Even with the oil leak capped and the gushing stopped the claims against BP just keep flowing. In order to meet its moral and economic obligations BP will have [...]
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) President Susan Hockfield and Eni CEO Paolo Scaroni recently celebrated the opening of the Eni-MIT Solar Frontiers Center (SFC). Originally announced in July 2008, the Solar Frontiers Center, headquartered on the MIT campus, promotes research in advanced solar technologies through projects ranging from new materials to hydrogen [...]
