Renewable energy could fully power a large electric grid 99.9 percent of the time by 2030 at costs comparable to today's electricity expenses, according to new research by the University of Delaware and Delaware Technical Community College.

Princeton researchers have found a simple and economical way to nearly triple the efficiency of organic solar cells, the cheap and flexible plastic devices that many scientists believe could be the future of solar power.

An insight into the properties of fullerene is set to open the door to a new class of electronic acceptors which can be used to build better and cheaper organic solar cells.

The British Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) has released a five-year plan for the solar and biomass industries in an attempt to give investors certainty on subsidy levels for the 2013–2017 period.

I briefly interviewed Donn Pendergrass, the CEO of ATI Casting. ATI Casting is a firm headquartered in La Porte, Indiana that manufactures customer-specified gray and ductile iron castings, some of which are for wind turbines.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has made a number of recommendations, suggestions and proposals to develop Vietnam’s nuclear infrastructure.

“We chose GE because of its proven technology and the extensive experience of its project teams. The 2.5-megawatt technology offers the efficiency, availability and energy performance that will safeguard our success,” said CEZ project manager Ondřej Šafář in the release.

Triển lãm Eco-Products Nhật Bản lần thứ 14 đã được tổ chức tại Tokyo Big Sight, thu hút tới 180.000 lượt khách tham quan.

“This increase in module efficiency, coupled with our thin-film technology’s real-world yield advantage when compared to crystalline silicon PV, results in higher energy density and lower levelized cost of energy (LCOE).”

Vietnamese and Japanese experts discussed bilateral cooperation on the use of nuclear energy for the purposes of peace, security, and nuclear non-proliferation in Hanoi on November 20.

Google announced on Thursday that it is investing 75 million U.S. dollars in a wind farm in the Midwestern U.S. state of Iowa, making its total investment in clean energy projects to nearly 1 billion dollars.

Electronics and refrigeration enterprises fear that from January 1, 2013, their refrigerators and air conditioners would not be launched into the market because of the delay in energy saving labeling.

Wind farms that offer economic efficiency and plan to connect with the national grid could be given priority status by the Government as it seeks to modernise the nation's energy supply.

Although critics of renewable energy may claim that it isn't reliable enough to power a grid, a new study gives proponents of clean power – such as wind and solar – fresh ammunition to respond. A thorough analysis carried out by the University of Delaware and Delaware Technical Community College concluded that renewable energy could reliably power a large electrical grid 99.9 per cent of the time by 2030, at a cost that matches today’s electricity prices.

The US Energy Information Administration has just released its “Annual Energy Outlook 2013” report with projections for US energy markets through to 2040. The report shows that growth in the country’s energy production is outpacing the growth of consumption.

Maybe storage isn’t the ultimate key to a renewable energy future.

Starting next January, the price of purchasing renewable energy voluntarily through monthly utility bills will spike to all-time highs, thanks to recent decisions rendered by the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin (PSCW) on two popular “green pricing” programs.

The rap on some green building efforts is that they can tend to be more expensive than using conventional designs and materials. However, a fire department in North Carolina turned this argument on its head recently when it completed its new LEED Gold certified fire station not only on time but $2 million under budget.

With an aim to raise women's awareness of energy efficiency so that they and their family members can use energy effectively, recently, the Department of Trade and Industry and the Association of Women in Bac Giang province launched a campaign for model families using energy efficiently in Bac Giang city.
