Scientists have converted a children's "drinking bird" toy into a tool that generates usable amounts of electricity. The generator could one day be utilized to power a wide variety of small electronic devices, both indoors and outside.Continue ReadingCategory: Energy, ScienceTags: Toys, Water
Sweden's CorPower has announced "breakthrough" results from Atlantic ocean testing of its full-scale floating generators, which cleverly time their motions to amplify smaller waves while protecting themselves against dangerous storm conditions.Continue ReadingCategory: Energy, ScienceTags: Clean Energy, Wave Power, Renewable Energy, Wave
Wave energy remains one of the least-exploited clean energy options, with huge potential as part of a green energy grid. Finland's AW Energy is preparing to field a contender at scale – the Waveroller – which sits on the sea bed generating up to 1 MW.Continue ReadingCategory: Energy, ScienceTags: Wave Power, Renewable Energy, Clean Energy, Ocean
Portable photovoltaic systems are great for generating electricity while off the grid, but constantly moving them to keep them in the sunlight can be a hassle. Jackery's Solar Generator Mars Bot offers a solution to that problem, as it moves itself.Continue ReadingCategory: Outdoors, LifestyleTags: Robots, Photovoltaic, Solar Power, CES 2024
In an average day, tropical oceans absorb about 278 petawatt-hours of solar energy. Harvesting just 1/4000th of that energy would supply the entire world's daily electricity – and ocean thermal energy conversion provides a possible method.Continue ReadingCategory: Energy, ScienceTags: Clean Energy, Ocean, Renewable Energy, Thermal
