Airbus looks to run full-size airliners on liquid hydrogen by 2035

Airbus says it’s on track to have a fully operational megawatt-class electric powertrain, fueled by cryogenic liquid hydrogen, tested in flight by 2026, ahead of a full-scale zero-emissions passenger airliner it plans to put into service by 2035.Contin… Continue reading Airbus looks to run full-size airliners on liquid hydrogen by 2035

Full-scale 5-MW floating “pyramid” wind turbine will be put to the test

Floating wind turbines are crucial to the future of offshore wind, and to bring energy costs down to a competitive level, they require radically different thinking. French company Eolink is starting to build a full-scale demonstrator of its innovative … Continue reading Full-scale 5-MW floating “pyramid” wind turbine will be put to the test

Neuralink gives a wide-ranging update on its brain chip progress

Neuralink has given a rare update on its brain-computer interface, including some new telepathic typing from monkeys, a new surgical robot, and early progress toward restoring sight in the blind and returning movement and sensation to paraplegics.Conti… Continue reading Neuralink gives a wide-ranging update on its brain chip progress

Awful video celebrates Archer’s first full-transition eVTOL flight

There are very few full-size aircraft capable of transitioning between vertical takeoff and landing and wing-borne horizontal cruise flight, so it’s a big deal when a company manages the feat, as Archer has now claimed. But the video is a shocker.Conti… Continue reading Awful video celebrates Archer’s first full-transition eVTOL flight

eVTOL flights will begin next year in NYC – but there’s a catch

You’ll have to pilot this next-gen aircraft yourself – although that’ll be easier than you’d think. Lift Aircraft says it’ll take you less than an hour to learn to fly its Hexa eVTOL, and then you’re off on a unique and spectacular sightseeing trip.Con… Continue reading eVTOL flights will begin next year in NYC – but there’s a catch

World’s largest green ammonia projects could clean up half the market

If all the major green ammonia projects on our shortlist are completed on schedule, their combined production total will be more than half of today’s global ammonia industry by the mid-2030s – eliminating nearly 1% of global carbon dioxide emissions.Co… Continue reading World’s largest green ammonia projects could clean up half the market

Denmark reverses the direction of an oil rig for bulk carbon storage

Denmark is moving forward with Project Greensands, an initiative that will take huge quantities of captured carbon out to an oil rig in the North Sea, and pump it down to sequester it in the sandstone formations that once held oil and gas.Continue Read… Continue reading Denmark reverses the direction of an oil rig for bulk carbon storage

Revolutionary photocatalyst is huge news for green hydrogen and ammonia

A fundamental breakthrough in chemistry promises to unlock ammonia as a clean fuel, and it could help decarbonize the entire chemical industry in the process. Rice University researchers have created a small, LED-powered device that converts ammonia to… Continue reading Revolutionary photocatalyst is huge news for green hydrogen and ammonia
