War in the Middle East will become OBSOLETE once Low Energy Nuclear Reactions are allowed to flourish, providing low-cost energy to the world
Countries in the Middle East, which possess 48.3 percent of the world’s oil reserves, play a vital role in global oil production and the economic growth of the countries in the region, which derive most of their income from oil. The 12 largest oil fields in the region are in Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, Iran, […]

Belgian scientists successfully create 2-in-1 solar panel that also produces hydrogen
Scientists from KU Leuven in Belgium have recently developed a solar panel that converts moisture in the air to produce hydrogen. This allows the solar panels to generate electricity through sunlight and to power heating systems using the resulting hydrogen. Lead investigator Johan Martens of KU Leuven told news outlet VRT NWS that he and his team […]

Storing and transporting hydrogen, a clean fuel that can provide power off-grid
Hydrogen might just be the fuel of the future. An energy carrier like electricity, it can store tremendous amounts of energy and power places with no access to the power grid. And whether it’s used in a fuel cell or burned to create heat, its only byproducts are clean water and heat. But the “hydrogen economy” – […]

Will the EU succeed in using hydrogen to decarbonize “heavy” industry?
Many European steel, cement and petrochemicals companies are exploring hydrogen to reduce their carbon footprints and meet emissions deadlines set by the European Union (EU). But many roadblocks such as the lack of hydrogen infrastructure may stall goals of decarbonizing “heavy” industry and ushering in the “hydrogen economy,” according to a report last week from the Financial Times. EU companies testing hydrogen […]

BMW & Ford to test solid state batteries next year
Today’s electric vehicles are far from perfect, and one of their biggest weak points are their batteries. Newer solid state batteries are expected to play a big role in EV technology moving forward, and now two major car makers are moving forward with tests of these batteries. In addition to lower costs and higher energy […]

DISCOVERY: Luminescent “windows” could transform light into power
Engineers from Rice University in Houston developed a novel method of generating power through the use of glowing “windows” that redirect light to the solar cells lining their edges. The windows, known as luminescent solar concentrates (LSCs), are composed of a conjugated polymer sandwiched between two acrylic panels. The polymer, a light-emitting compound dubbed PNV (poly[naphthalene-alt-vinylene]), is designed to absorb light from the […]
