Researchers from Zhejiang University in China have developed a photo-chemo-enzymatic multi-step combination pathway for the highly efficient and environmentally friendly preparation of biogasoline from cheap and sustainable triolein using solar energy and atmospheric O 2 under mild conditions. —Xu et al.

Traditional methods of producing hydrogen without greenhouse gas emissions (green hydrogen) include electrolysis powered by renewable sources such as wind, solar, or hydro. This is done through the sustainable extraction of natural resources, carbon negative production of chemicals, and closed-loop renewal of waste as feedstock.

In a region known for long, dark winter nights, Polar Night Energy is building a system in the city of Tampere that can heat buildings with stored solar energy — all day, all night, and all winter long. In this way, sand enables solar power to keep people warm, even during the darkest and coldest Finnish nights. Eronen says, laughing.

Natural gas generation made up much of the gap last year, as it has consistently in recent years, due to extremely cheap gas prices. Renewables played an important role as well thanks in part to continued cost declines in both wind and solar generation. year-on-year. Industrial emissions (both energy and process) rose by 0.6%.

There is no end of gushing about China’s cheap solar panels—but when was the last time you saw a paean to hydroelectricity? Instead, that pure status is now reserved above all for wind and solar. The manufacture of solar panels involves the environmental costs from mining, waste disposal, and carbon emissions.

But after buying an ultra-cheap Chinese electric boat last year , this new one makes my own lazy lake cruiser look like a luxury yacht. Assuming the boat truly is electric, that canopy seems like a lot of wasted space that could be well spent holding up some solar panels.

Now residential and commercial buildings can be outfitted with roofing tiles that double as solar panels, or with rooftop boxes like this low-profile unit that transforms gusts of wind into electric current. meters tall, and has a 4-square-meter footprint (leaving plenty of space for solar panels or tiles). household).
