This rather novel solar collector draws inspiration from the lotus flower to provide small-scale solar energy - both electric and thermal - to domestic and small business users.

In 2011, the province has saved 7.9 million kWh, the Ministry of Industry and Trade awarded certificate the province of merit.

Butterfly wings are not just beautiful. They are also sophisticated collectors of solar energy that help butterflies stay warm, and researchers say that their shinglelike structure could provide valuable clues into developing better solar technology.

Last month Apple unveiled that it plans to build both a massive fuel cell farm and a huge solar farm at its data center in Maiden, North Carolina.

Hải quân Mỹ đã khánh thành một tổ hợp nghiên cứu phức hợp tại Arsenal Detroit (Warren, Mỹ) để phát triển công nghệ sạch như pin nhiên liệu và các hệ thống hybrid cho xe chiến đấu.

While we’ve looked at the development of solar cell technologies that employ nanoscale 3D structures to trap light and increase the amount of solar energy absorbed, MIT researchers have now used 3D on the macro scale to achieve power output that is up to 20 times greater than traditional fixed flat solar panels with the same base area.

A researcher from Adelaide's Flinders University has developed a prototype solar cell that uses a layer of transparent carbon nanotubes sandwiched between conductive glass to collect solar energy

Speaking at the 243rd National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society (ACS), the world's largest scientific society, Ibrahim Khamis, Ph.D., described how heat from existing nuclear plants could be used in the more economical production of hydrogen, with future plants custom-built for hydrogen production. He is with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna, Austria.

Fuentes De Andalucia, Spain - A unique thermosolar power station in southern Spain can shrug off cloudy days: energy stored when the sun shines lets it produce electricity even during the night.

On the sidelines of the second international exhibition for Renewable and Decentralised Energy Solutions (ENEREXPRO 2012), the Deputy Director of the Ministry of Industry and Trade's Department of Science and Technology Phan Cong Hop talked to Vietnam Economic News’ Lan Phuong about solutions to develop renewable energy projects.

Tanzania probably doesn’t come to mind when you think about solar power leaders. But it’s actually working on a solar power project worthy of global notice, I think. The solar project will put solar power on “45 secondary schools, 10 health centres, 120 dispensaries, municipal buildings and businesses across 25 village market centres currently without access to the electricity grid.”

The global market for green technologies is set to grow to $396 billion (£245 billion) over the next decade, according to a new report by leading US analyst firm Clean Edge.

CAPE TOWN, March 14 – South Africa yesterday launched its first verified wind atlas which maps out potential hotspots as a tool for wind farm developers as the coal-hungry country pushes toward renewable energy.

Vietnam Steel Association in collaboration with United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) organized an International Conference on "Efficient use of resources and energy - roadmap for sustainable development technology for the steel industry in Vietnam" on March 5 and 6, in Hanoi.

Solar-powered electricity prices could soon approach those of power from coal or natural gas thanks to collaborative research with solar start-up Ampulse Corporation at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

Hai công ty tại bang Río Grande do Sul (Brazil) vừa bắt đầu sản xuất thử nghiệm ethanol từ gạo với hy vọng loại ngũ cốc này không chỉ được sử dụng để đáp ứng nhu cầu lương thực mà còn là nguồn nguyên liệu quan trọng để điều chế nhiên liệu.

"Our commitment to provide solar power to Haiti will empower local schools and other community facilities, and give students a great place to study and learn while reducing dependency on expensive diesel power and polluting fossil fuels," said Petersen. "I look forward to partnering with the Clinton Foundation as we grow and identify new opportunities to harness the power of the sun by expanding the use of solar power in Haiti."

San Jose-based SunPower (SPWRA) has landed a plum contract: Its solar panels will generate electricity for Apple's (AAPL) massive new data center in Maiden, N.C., according to a filing with regulators in that state.
