Concentrating solar power systems are getting an energy efficiency makeover and a new job: producing solar fuels.
This “solar tower” deploys solar energy to convert water and carbon dioxide to produce non-fossil kerosene for sustainable jet fuel.
ETH climate researcher Daniela Domeisen has documented how the stratosphere influences extreme weather events. What surprised her was the sheer range of potential impacts. She explains what this means for climate research and long-term weather forecasts.
There is much EV battery news out there. Some of it is hard to decipher, some is misleading, and some is just downright cool. Here are 10 recent stories that couldn’t quite catch their own headline here on CleanTechnica but seemed worth highlighting.
Several reports recently have driven home the reality of climate change. A team at ETH Zurich has developed a tool to show how rising temperatures will impact 520 world cities.
Researchers based at ETH Zurich is Switzerland say that planting up to a trillion trees is the most efficient and cost effective way to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
The IEA is encouraging G20 leaders to consider hydrogen as a way to lower carbon emissions. Researchers around the world are seeking ways to make hydrogen from sunlight and air instead of fossil fuels.
A novel combination of high-grade spacecraft solar cell material and advanced light-concentrating lenses has yielded solar panels with a record 29% efficiency that may become available for general rooftop use by 2022. The crux in the commercialization of the planar optical micro-tracking technology will be cost-controlling manufacturing process, which is the current stage of study for Insolight, the cell developer.
Researchers say Europeans should make their plans for renewable energy on a regional basis instead of a national basis in order to improve reliability.
