The Climate Council has launched a new plan to seize the sun and capitalise on Australia’s rooftop solar strengths, double our solar power capacity and install two million household batteries by the end of the decade.

From March 5–7, METEF, the international expo for aluminum, aimed at highlighting new chances for the industry and provide opportunities to diversify one’s business, returns to Bologna

The U.S. Department of Energy found increasing levels of savings under a high-renewables grid across three transmission frameworks: first, accelerated transmission expansion, then point-to-point high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission, then HVDC using more flexibly sized multiterminal converters.

The EEC welcomed the release of the NSW Consumer Energy Strategy, which includes a $239 million Home Energy Saver Program and a commitment to introduce disclosure of home energy performance at point of sale or lease.

To limit global warming to 1.5°C, we need to cut emissions by about 7% annually. Right now, emissions are rising by 1.5% each year. Energy-related emissions contribute to more than 80% of this global total. And although renewable energy production has more than doubled in the last decade, it still makes up only slightly over 13% of total energy use, up from 9% in 2011.

Nova Scotia is unveiling new details on its planned public housing project. It says the bulk of the new homes will be coming to the Halifax area. As Skye Bryden-Blom reports, it’s also introducing 25 new modular units as it looks to bolster its affordable housing stock.

The evaluation focuses on the achievements of the Rural Development Programme with regard to energy consumption efficiency and renewable energy production in the agriculture and food processing industry.

Thermoelectric generators that can convert waste heat to clean energy could soon be as efficient as other renewable energy sources, like solar, according to a team led by Penn State scientists.

In an era of environmental awareness and sustainability, the construction industry is undergoing a remarkable transformation. Building design, once primarily concerned with aesthetics and functionality, is now embracing a new imperative energy efficiency. In this blog, we will explore how energy efficiency is revolutionising the construction industry and shaping the future of building design.

Canada's buildings sector is the third-largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions across the country. We must increase the scale and pace of retrofitting buildings across the country to make them more energy-efficient, increasing savings and reducing emissions.

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory invented a new way to control how electricity moves in and out of a special material used in microelectronics. This technique is called “redox gating.”

MOST (molecular solar thermal energy storage systems) combines a silicon solar cell with an innovative storage system. This cutting-edge breakthrough not only addresses the pressing issues but also paves the way for a new era of sustainable energy storage. It achieves a record energy storage efficiency of 2.3%.

Using state-of-the-art energy efficiency technologies to renovate existing properties and construct new ones could enable Europe's construction sector to almost eliminate its carbon emissions by 2060, a new study suggests.

UK government urged to change regulations so new homes incorporate solar panels, heat pump, high-grade insulation and battery storage.

New research from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) finds that making average electric vehicles as efficient as their higher-performing peers can reduce the upfront cost of an EV by almost $5,000 and cut charging costs by nearly a third. Improving the efficiency of a 300-mile-range EV can give it the same range with much smaller batteries, significantly cutting costs.

Their device needs no electricity, as it extracts water from the air using nothing more than gravity and relies on cheap, readily available materials.

A low-cost approach regulates heat with common building materials that absorb or radiate heat

According to the IEA (International Energy Agency), we must double the global rate of energy efficiency improvements until 2030 to reach net zero by 2050. In a world where energy and climate crises are intertwined, companies search for ways to keep up with sustainability regulations while maintaining profitability.

On Sept. 24, during the United Nations General Assembly and the New York Climate Week, the International Energy Agency (IEA) released a new report indicating that the goals supported by countries at the United Nations Climate Conference (COP28) — such as tripling renewable energy capacity and doubling energy efficiency by the end of 2030 — could be achievable with the right enabling conditions.

Researchers have created an advanced refrigeration device that combines eco-friendliness with unprecedented cooling efficiency. The system achieves a temperature lift of 75 K by expanding the super elastic temperature window of NiTi shape memory alloys.
