Eco Wave Power has been floating its wave energy system for more than 10 years, where the rise and fall of coastal waters drives hydraulic pistons that run a generator to produce electricity. Now the company is getting ready to build its first megawatt… Continue reading Megawatt-scale wave energy project inches closer to realization
Good news for planet Earth, at least as far as the data shows for the United States. According to the US Energy Information Administration, in the five years from 2019 to 2024, in March and April specifically, electricity production using wind power ha… Continue reading Wind energy blows away coal-fired power in the US
The world’s largest renewable energy and transmission project has received key approval from government officials. The Australia-Asia Power Link project will send Australian solar power to Singapore via 4,300 kilometer-long undersea cables.Continue Rea… Continue reading Massive Australia-to-Singapore clean energy cable gets green light
Two 650-foot-tall (200-m) towers have risen in China’s Gansu Province. Combined with an array of 30,000 mirrors arranged in concentric circles, the new facility is expected to generate over 1.8 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity every year.Continue … Continue reading World’s first dual-tower solar thermal plant boosts efficiency by 24%
Mingyang Smart Energy, maker of the world’s largest wind turbines, has just unveiled its latest gigantic floating offshore wind turbine creation. The OceanX is a two-headed, deep-water behemoth capable of generating during Cat 5 hurricanes.Continue Rea… Continue reading Giant twin-rotor floating wind turbine can harness a hurricane
The sheer size of today’s wind turbines is mind-boggling – they’re among the biggest machines humanity has ever built, and the bigger they get, the more potential value you can get by adding a little extra length to the blades.Continue ReadingCategory:… Continue reading Full-scale self-assembling wind turbine system funded for construction
