Scientists create floating generator that makes electricity from falling raindrops
C hinese scientists have recently unveiled a floating hydrovoltaic generator that converts the energy of falling raindrops ...
How can open ocean currents generate energy? Ocean currents contain kinetic energy that can be converted to electrical power using turbines. This is similar to offshore wind farms, or wind turbines ...
In a world chasing cleaner energy, a group of physicists may have uncovered a surprising new way to make power: by tapping into the Earth's own rotation. That's right, researchers at Princeton ...
However, according to the UAB team, ice can not only produce electricity, it can do so in two distinct ways. Those who managed to stay awake in science class may recall learning about piezoelectricity ...
Ice generates electricity as a response to stress when it bends. Experiments with pure and saline ice found that with enough salt, that electrical charge becomes exponentially greater. Not only is all ...
The few wealthy countries of Germany, Australia, Great Britain, New Zealand, other EU countries, and the USA, representing less than one of the eight billion on Planet Earth, are mandating social ...
Geothermal energy has huge potential to generate clean power – including from used oil and gas wells
(The Conversation is an independent and nonprofit source of news, analysis and commentary from academic experts.) Moones Alamooti, University of North Dakota (THE CONVERSATION) As energy use rises and ...
As a traditional cotton spinner working from home in her village in northern India, Anita Devi was long resigned to having ...
The two biggest factors that influence power prices are the cost of generating electricity at a power plant and then ...
In Australia, millions of photovoltaic systems generate electricity – so much that in the future, certain households will ...
