Essential rare earth elements pulled from water using eggshells

Making the successful transition to green energy is dependent on rare earth elements (REEs), which are needed to make essential components in things like hybrid and electric vehicles and wind turbines. Despite their name, these elements aren’t actually… Continue reading Essential rare earth elements pulled from water using eggshells

Drilling into magma: Risky plan takes geothermal to supercritical extremes

The Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT) “has the potential to be for geoscientists what the Large Hadron Collider has been for particle physicists.” So say researchers working on the project to drill straight into a magma chamber to explore massive geothermal p… Continue reading Drilling into magma: Risky plan takes geothermal to supercritical extremes

Seawater plant will capture 10 tons of CO2 and make 300 kg of H2 per day

After successful pilot programs, UCLA has partnered with Singapore’s national water agency and others to build the world’s largest ocean-based carbon dioxide removal plant capable of removing 3,650 metric tons (8,046,873 lb) of the greenhouse gas per y… Continue reading Seawater plant will capture 10 tons of CO2 and make 300 kg of H2 per day

Ecojet airline aims to fly hydrogen-electric aircraft from 2025

Ecojet intends to refit conventional kerosene-fueled aircraft with hydrogen-electric powertrains, and operate as the

Green-energy businessman Dale Vince has revealed plans to set up the UK’s first electric aviation company. Ecojet will repurpose conventional aircraft to fly on hydrogen-electric power, with domestic flights planned to start as early as 2025.

Coal’s green potential: storing energy instead of being burned for it

Coal is not generally thought of as a clean fuel source, but it might yet have a role to play in the push for greener energy. Researchers say that it could be a great material in which to store hydrogen gas, which is one of the most promising clean fue… Continue reading Coal’s green potential: storing energy instead of being burned for it

South Australia plans world’s largest electrolyzer and H2 power plant

The state that built the world’s first grid-level “big battery” is striking out on an even more ambitious green energy project: the world’s biggest hydrogen power station, fed by an electrolysis facility 10 times larger than anything running today.Cont… Continue reading South Australia plans world’s largest electrolyzer and H2 power plant

Startup believes AI-guided hydrofoil flotilla is key to green hydrogen

Wind power is a promising source of green energy and one that could feature in the production of green hydrogen. UK startup Drift Energy shows a different spin on that idea. Instead of creating windmill-derived electricity, its plan involves using AI-r… Continue reading Startup believes AI-guided hydrofoil flotilla is key to green hydrogen

Algae biopanel windows make power, oxygen and biomass, and suck up CO2

Beautifully designed, energy-generating bio-panels that suck up carbon dioxide and pump out biomass for use as fuel or fertilizer – that’s the idea behind Mexican startup Greenfluidics and its nanotech-enhanced microalgae bioreactor building panels.Con… Continue reading Algae biopanel windows make power, oxygen and biomass, and suck up CO2
