A new way of generating clean power could run your lights with rain. Hydropower typically relies on the movement of water to create electricity through mechanical energy, such as spinning turbines in ...

UC Riverside researchers have unveiled a powerful new imaging technique that exposes how cutting-edge materials used in solar panels and light sensors convert light into electricity—offering a path to ...

How can open ocean currents generate energy? Ocean currents contain kinetic energy that can be converted to electrical power using turbines. This is similar to offshore wind farms, or wind turbines ...

The Catalan city of Barcelona, home to Sagrada Família, is now partially powered by its own Metro underground trains, thanks to a system called regenerative braking. When an electric vehicle is slowed ...

In an age where energy costs are spiraling and sustainability is becoming increasingly crucial, the Hendershot Generator presents a groundbreaking solution for energy independence. This innovative ...

Our drive to get clean energy means that companies are starting to invest in larger, more powerful solar farms. These facilities use solar panels to generate renewable energy from sunlight, giving ...

To get a sense of how little electricity people use in sub-Saharan Africa, imagine each person there turning on a single 50-watt light bulb. That alone would instantly double electricity consumption.
