Physicists demonstrate for the first time a strategy for manipulating the trillions of tiny molecular nanomachines inside us that work to keep us alive. to maximize efficiency and conserve energy.

Researchers have reported a key breakthrough in how the performance of cadmium telluride thin-film solar cells is improved even further by the addition of another material. selenium.

A new device for collecting and purifying water was inspired by a rose and. while more engineered than enchanted. is a dramatic improvement on current methods.

One of the big issues with sustainable energy systems is how to store electricity that'.s generated from wind. solar and waves.

While 160 companies around the world have committed to use 100% renewable energy. that does not mean 100% carbon-free energy.

The flexible devices turn movement into electrical energy and could enable wearable. self-powered sensors and devices.

Extracting energy from the wind causes climatic impacts that are small compared to current projections of 21st century warming. but large compared to the effect of reducing US electricity emissions to zero with solar.

In the first study to assess the energy impact of smart technology in cars. researchers have put a number on the potential fuel-cost savings alone: $6.2 billion.

Tandem solar cells made of silicon and metal halide perovskite compounds can convert a particularly large portion of the solar spectrum into electrical energy.

A new climate-modeling study finds that a massive wind and solar installation in the Sahara Desert and neighboring Sahel would increase local temperature. precipitation and vegetation.
