Divya Tyagi, a graduate student at Pennsylvania State University (Penn State), has revised a 100-year-old math equation to improve modeling for wind turbine efficiency. Tyagi used a century-old equation originally developed by aerodynamicist Hermann Glauert. Glauert created the equation to find the maximum power coefficient to determine optimum rotating actuator disk performance, and this initial […]
The state of New York is adding $30 million into its Drive Clean Rebate Program, an initiative that provides rebates for the purchase of 60 different electric vehicles. As part of the announcement, the state will also be expanding the existing Charge Ready NY 2.0 program, which provides incentives for installing EV chargers to making […]
As human-caused climate change continues threatening the way of life for virtually every species on Earth, what if one group of organisms right under (and inside of) our noses could help reverse climate change? That’s what a recent report from the American Society of Microbiology (ASM) and the International Union of Microbiological Societies (IUMS) argues. […]
After nearly a decade of negotiations, nations have come to a “landmark” global shipping agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The new International Maritime Organization (IMO) Framework introduced a carbon pricing mechanism that will require ships with high emissions to pay for the excess pollution they release, reported UN News. It also sets mandatory fuel […]
A major new community solar project is coming to the Isle of Arran in Scotland. The 6 megawatt Glenkiln solar farm will be Scotland’s largest entirely community-owned solar farm. The £5 million ($6.48 million) project proposal recently gained planning approval and will move forward in securing construction financing, Energy Global reported. According to Arran Community […]
Transitioning to clean energy and away from fossil fuels by 2060 would reduce trade risks and improve energy security for most nations, a new study has found. Rare earth minerals like lithium, copper, nickel and cobalt are “prized materials” for corporations and countries rushing to secure supplies for clean energy systems. The most concentrated natural […]
President Donald Trump on Tuesday issued another executive order, this time with the purpose of stopping the enforcement of state climate laws. The order, “Protecting American Energy From State Overreach,” directs the United States attorney general to identify and take action to block state laws addressing climate change, fossil fuel emissions and Environmental, Social, and […]
A new report has found that 40.9% of global electricity production last year came from “clean,” low-carbon energy sources such as solar and wind power. This number is up from the 39.4% share clean energy had of the total electricity generation mix in 2023. According to the sixth annual Global Electricity Review from Ember, total […]
The last utility-scale coal plant in Finland has closed. The Salmisaari plant, operated by the Helsinki-owned energy group called Helen, shut down its final coal-powered electricity and heat plant on Tuesday, as the country focuses on more renewable energy sources. As Reuters reported, Finland passed a law in 2019 that would ban coal after 2029. […]
