MIT researchers have discovered a way to increase the efficiency of thermoelectric materials threefold by using “topological” materials, which have unique electronic properties. In the end, this could be a clean-energy way to help us use a heat source to generate electricity, which will lessen our release of carbon dioxide.

Congress has provided hundreds of billions of dollars to speed the deployment of clean-energy technologies. Among the most articulate and almost certainly the wonkiest is Jesse Jenkins , a professor of engineering at Princeton University, where he heads the ZERO Lab—the Zero-carbon Energy systems Research and Optimization Laboratory, that is.

There is no denying the need for nuclear power in a world that hungers for clean, carbon-free energy. concentrated solar power plants that store heat via molten salts. "So The country's talent pool in nuclear engineering, he says, is quite substantial. thorium as fuel , the South China Morning Post reported recently.
