MARCH 15, 2009

Renewable energy technologies could generate 40% of the world’s electricity by 2050, according to research presented at the International Scientific Congress “Climate Change: Global Risks, Challenges & Decisions”. More specifically, Germany has more than doubled its share of renewable energy since 2000. Professor Petersen.

Nuclear is the second-largest low-carbon power source in the world today, accounting for 10% of global electricity generation. Over the past 50 years, the use of nuclear power has reduced CO 2 emissions by more than 60 gigatonnes: nearly two years’ worth of global energy-related emissions. It is second only to hydropower at 16%.

JANUARY 18, 2023

When we turn up the heat in our homes and workplaces, we must balance our personal need for warmth with the global impact of burning fossil fuels like oil, gas, coal, and biomass. It is a daunting question that a startup called Polar Night Energy, in the small and chilly nation of Finland (Figure 1), is attempting to answer.
