Although obscure, this isn’t a completely out-of-left-field idea. Turns out there’s a company, Magenn, that has developed what it calls the Air Rotor System.

The solar energy system will generate around 2,450,000kWh of electricity over the 25-years period. A total income of £1.25m will be generated from the feed-in tariff and save around £250,000 in electricity purchase costs, based on current energy prices. The system will also save 55,000 kg in CO2 emissions each year.

The IAEA Director General emphasized that ensuring nuclear safety and security is now the agency’s top priority, especially after the recent Fukushima nuclear incidents in Japan.

Cuban and Vietnamese experts are working together to install new-type biogas producing tanks made from Polyester, which is expected to help local farmers in Cuba get an alternative source of electric power for daily life and production.

Phu Quoc Island District in the southern province of Kien Giang will receive more than VND9.16 trillion (US$436.2 million) to implement three power supply projects, said the Phu Quoc Investment and Development Management Board.

Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and the business community should be encouraged to participate in the development of green growth. Vietnamese Deputy Minister of Natural Resources and Environment Tran Hong Ha emphasized this at the closing of the ASEM forum on green growth in Hanoi on October 4.

Nuclear energy is for not only developed countries but also developing countries like Vietnam which can implement and apply nuclear energy in its economic development, said IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano.

A solution to which the power sector attaches special attention to overcome power shortages is to promote energy saving programs. In particular, power saving solutions in industrial factories, which are considered to have the largest saving potential, are of great importance.

Hydrogen được các nhà khoa học xem là nhiên liệu sạch lý tưởng cho xe hơi chạy trên đường dài.

Tập đoàn General Electric (GE) của Mỹ và hãng sản xuất xe hơi Nissan của Nhật Bản vừa cho biết họ sẽ cùng hợp tác trong hai năm tới để tìm cách thúc đẩy việc sử dụng xe điện.
