Berlin gets creative with renewable energy and energy storage in race against Russian gas cutoff this winter.
Deep Earth Energy Production in Saskatchewan says its initial tests for its first geothermal generating facility exceeded expectations. It expects to being operations in the middle of 2021.
The deepest and hottest wells ever drilled have been completed in the UK and should begin supplying electricity next spring.
Researchers in Japan are finding new ways to make electricity from heat at lower temperatures while other researchers in Belgium may be close to a solid state battery breakthrough.
Within the world of heat pumps, there are two major technologies that operate in similar ways but pull from very different sources. These two options are air-source heat pumps (ASHP) and ground-source heat pumps (GSHP). Dandelion Energy is breaking new ground that makes geothermal ground-source heat pumps more affordable and easier to put in place.
Many homeowners now use rooftop solar panels to generate their own electricity, and a geothermal heating and cooling system works well in tandem with solar panels because the geothermal heat pump helps regulate your home’s temperature using the electricity provided by your solar panels.
It’s time to dig into a less talked about-but-powerful source of renewable energy. While it’s hard to miss a massive solar array or a field full of wind turbines, so much of the action with geothermal energy happens out-of-sight that it tends to not generate as much love as its buzzier brothers in the renewable energy landscape.
Electricity demand in East Africa is projected to triple by 2030. Investment in renewable technologies will be essential to the strategic diversification of the energy sources needed to meet this demand, and renewable energy in Kenya is poised to expand exponentially over the next decade.
A bill introduced by Montana Senator Jon Tester would set a goal of 50,000 MW of geothermal energy by 2025. (Oregon Senator Ron Wyden co-sponsored it.) “Montana’s public lands contain some of the best renewable energy sources in the world, and we should be leading the nation to increase our … [continued]
