If you’re a regular around here, you probably know that we prefer renewable electricity for powering vehicles. This usually involves battery storage, though. While battery technology has gotten to the point where it’s viable to do things like electric cars, boats, trucks, and even some planes, the relatively low energy … [continued]
South Dakota’s renewable energy resources are quickly expanding beyond hydropower, with wind as frontrunner and solar bringing up the rear.
Lithuania is the first nation in the world to adopt the LA100 renewable energy model developed by the US National Renewable Energy Laboratory for the City of Los Angeles.
Study Surveys Trade-Offs of Technology Options To Overcome Challenging Last Few Percent to Zero-Emissions U.S. Power Grid A growing body of research has demonstrated that cost-effective high-renewable power systems are possible, but costs increase as systems approach 100% carbon-free electricity—what has become known as the “last 10% problem.” The increase … [continued]
How would you feel about Bitcoin if the tech that powered it was carbon neutral?
Algae biofuel could have another moment in the sun, now that more federal dollars are pouring into carbon capture-and-recycling technology.
The power of the renewable energy lobby in Arizona will be tested as the US Senate (finally) votes on the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.
The idea that it costs a premium to go green and clean is long expired in the electricity industry. A new report from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) indicates that most of the renewable energy installed in G20 countries last year had lower costs than the absolute cheapest coal … [continued]
During the first four months of 2022, electrical generation by renewable energy sources accounted for over 25% of the nation’s electricity. In April alone, renewables accounted for 29.3% — an all-time high. And for the first time ever, the combination of just wind and solar produce more electricity in April … [continued]
