A battery that can power the planet. A steel making process that can clean the air by reducing CO2. In this second film in our series visionary energy expert Professor Donald R. Sadoway looks at the future of energy and how his revolutionary ideas ca
Smartphones that last twice as long before they need to be recharged could soon become reality after a US tech start-up revealed a portable battery with more than double the capacity of those currently on the market.
In 2008, the Bush administration and a key IAEA official agreed on a strategy of misrepresenting Iran's position on the authenticity of intelligence documents, which they used to establish an official narrative of Iran "stonewalling" the IAEA investi
Researchers at the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore have developed a new, proof-of-concept anode for lithium-ion batteries that can charge to 70 percent of its capacity in only two minutes and has a very long lifespan of ten thousa
Researchers at Tohoku University in Japan have developed a new low-cost flat panel light source that could pioneer a new generation of brighter, cheaper and greener lighting devices to rival LEDs.
Will Repay Billions to Gazprom
Alevo Inc. will use the former Philip Morris plant in Concord to manufacture an innovative battery technology, which sources say will "help solve some of the world's biggest energy problems."
Lithium-ion Batteries Will Power Soryu-class Boats
Energy storage took center stage at Solar Energy UK in Birmingham, Enlgand, on Wednesday.
Can the company do what's never been done before?
Biofuels may indeed offer a greener alternative to fossil fuels, but they do raise at least one concern – crops grown as biofuel feedstock could take up farmland and use water that would otherwise be used to grow crops for much-needed food.

Our advanced civilisation is built on easily exploited coal, oil and gas. New Scientist explores an alternative history that holds lessons for us all
While the influx of natural gas could alter where the world gets its energy from, it is unlikely to slow the growth of global greenhouse gas emissions over the long term, according to new research published online Wednesday in the journal Nature.
They've been proven to be far more energy-efficient than their gas-powered equivalents, but limited range, long charging times, and high costs have prevented electric vehicles from really catching on.
Lockheed has made a technological breakthrough in developing a power source based on nuclear fusion, and the first reactors, small enough to fit on the back of a truck, could be ready for use in a decade.
An Oxford-based startup has turned to crowdfunding to help develop Zap&Go, a phone charger with an emphasis on speed and portability.
Crude is getting smoked.
The first thing Desmond Wheatley tells me about his solar-powered EV car charging system is you don't need great weather to make it work.
Researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, Stanford University and the Dresden University of Technology have developed a long sought-after nanostructure that can significantly increase the efficiency of organic solar cells.
(Reuters) - The Generation IV International Forum (GIF) was created in 2000 to perform research on new types of nuclear reactors to replace the water-cooled models that make up the majority of today's global nuclear fleet.
In the 21st century, the world lives with two futures ahead of it – one of looming energy shortages, and another of godlike energy abundance.
Outfitting your home with cheap solar power just got a lot easier.
Elon Musk has unveiled the newest Tesla, and there are a ton of new, futuristic features.
Sure, it's mostly symbolic. But the global energy business is also on the cusp of a dramatic transformation.
On Thursday night with much pomp and circumstance, Elon Musk announced Tesla's new line of cars — the "Tesla D," which is actually an all-wheel-drive version of the Model S. We were there to witness the theatrics.
The results are in for the 2014 Nobel Prize in physics. If the brilliant light show above doesn't give it away, then let me enlighten you.
The Tesla "D" that Elon Musk so provocatively tweeted about last week is actually an all-wheel-drive version of the Model S Sedan. There will be three versions, and each will carry the "D" designation, to distinguish them from the rear-wheel-drive Mo
Looking rather like a 10-meter (33 ft) tall sunflower, IBM's High Concentration PhotoVoltaic Thermal (HCPVT) system concentrates the sun's radiation over 2,000 times on a single point and then transforms 80 percent of that into usable energy.
