Current street light designs spreads light into unwanted directions which wastes energy and results to non-uniform light patterns, unnecessary upward-reflection, and glare (very uncomfortable for drivers). This inefficient use of lighting is called “Light Pollution” – term for misdirected artificial light. In some cases conventional street lights losses half its light due Read more »
Algae on street lamps does not usually make sense. But for several years now Pierre Calleja, a french biochemist, has been developing a street lamp that feeds on vast amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in our atmosphere. What is more amazing is that it is more efficient than trees, tests shows Read more »
We all know that solar power generated by solar cells is one of the cleanest energy source we can tap into. But for the solar technology to get to where it is today, it has required huge amount of energy, ironically most of which from fossil fuels.
Outdoor activities – a great way to experience being disconnected with technology, but that was before there was nPower PEG (Personal Energy Generator). Now, with the nPower PEG, you can now harvest your own energy while moving to charge your phone.
Energy storage has been one of the biggest issues with harnessing power from renewable energy sources like the sun and the wind. Because these sources are intermittent in nature, energy can be wasted when demand is low and supply is high. On the other hand, we might lack the supply Read more »
Researchers from North Carolina State University have created flower-like structures out of germanium sulfide (GeS) – a semiconductor material – that have extremely thin petals with an enormous surface area. The GeS flower holds promise for next-generation energy storage devices and solar cells.
SCOTLAND – Harvesting energy under sea level is viewed as a potential renewable energy source off to the coast of Northern Scotland. It was a few years after Norway built it’s 10 megawatt wind turbine, Scottish Power Renewables faced it on a different direction. “We’re very pleased with the initial Read more »
