Mar. 25, 2021 From microwave ovens to Wi-Fi connections, the radio waves that permeate the environment are not just signals of energy consumed but are also sources of energy themselves. An international team of ...
May 17, 2022 Using technology similar to night-vision goggles, researchers have developed a device that can generate electricity from thermal ...
Aug. 4, 2021 Traditionally used energy harvesting technologies, like photovoltaic panels or wind turbines, suffer from several limitations. In the absence of daylight and wind, neither of the two can supply any ...
Sep. 30, 2021 Researchers used decades of measurements of earthshine -- the light reflected from Earth that illuminates the surface of the Moon to find that there has been a significant drop in Earth's ...
July 22, 2023 Chemists have demonstrated that water remediation can be powered in part -- and perhaps even exclusively -- by renewable energy ...
May 6, 2021 Solar-power developers need to explore using lower-quality agricultural land for solar energy, incentivize dual-use (combined agriculture and solar) options, avoid concentrated solar development and ...
Feb. 21, 2023 Researchers design a solar harvester with enhanced energy conversion capabilities. The device employs a quasiperiodic nanoscale pattern, meaning most of it is an alternating and consistent pattern, ...
May 11, 2021 Quantum mechanics can be used to create more stable and more easily produced organic solar ...
Oct. 27, 2023 Using a new 3D printing technique, researchers have developed special ceramic structures for a solar reactor. Initial experimental testing show that these structures can boost the production yield of ...
May 10, 2021 New mechanisms for converting sunlight to electricity more efficiently are also beneficial for extending the lifespan of solar ...
