The country's most populated city has adopted a programme to save power and promote the use of renewable and environmentally friendly energies.

Vietnamese officials from the Central and Central Highlands and lecturers from the UK’s leading research universities discussed opportunities to develop and apply new clean energy resources at a conference in Da Nang city on Sept. 10.

No form of renewable energy has gained more ground in the past 15 years than wind, with installed capacity up 40-fold. Now, facing a long list of hurdles, the Global Wind Energy Council says the industry will need to work hard to make the next 15 years as fruitful – a necessity in the fight against climate change, in its view.

Tokelau (thuộc chủ quyền của New Zealand) vừa trở thành lãnh thổ đầu tiên trên thế giới sử dụng 100% nguồn năng lượng tái tạo, thay cho nguồn năng lượng truyền thống.

Hội thảo Ấn Độ-Hiệp hội các quốc gia Đông Nam Á (ASEAN) về hợp tác trong lĩnh vực năng lượng mới và năng lượng tái tạo đã khai mạc sáng 5/11 tại New Delhi, thủ đô Ấn Độ.

Hơn một tuần sau khi siêu bão Sandy đổ bộ vào New York (Mỹ), hàng nghìn người dân ở đây vẫn không có điện để sinh hoạt.

Throughout history, American innovation and entrepreneurship have prompted some of the world’s greatest advances. Transcontinental railroads and highways, the space program and the internet each created new markets and opportunities, bringing prosperity to millions. The Wright brothers, Thomas Edison and countless other heroes of American ingenuity have changed the lives of American families for the better.

Before the solar power grid was completed, the New Zealand-administered grouping of three coral atolls, with a population of just 1,500, relied on diesel generators for electricity.

If you’re interested in renewable energy, you’ve probably heard the term wind-solar hybrid before and wondered what that really meant. On the surface, its pretty straight forward; it’s a renewable energy system, generally small, designed to provide power for your home or small business.

A week after sub tropical storm Sandy made landfall in New York, thousands are still without power in their Rockaway Beach neighborhood homes.

Các nước Đông Nam Á và Ấn Độ đồng ý hợp tác trong lĩnh vực năng lượng tái tạo tại cuộc họp cấp bộ trưởng diễn ra tại New Delhi hôm 7/11.

Between now and 2020 the green sector could create upwards of 3 million jobs in the U.S. That’s according to a new report from CleanEdison.

"Viet Nam has huge potentials for green and renewable energy, including solar, wind, biomass and hydropower to replace traditional ones," said Nguyen Duc Cuong, head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT)'s Energy Institute's Renewable Energy and Clean Development Mechanisms Centre.

Nearly 250 policy makers, senior officials and experts of ASEAN and India gathered in a workshop on renewable energy cooperation which opened in New Delhi on November 5.

The Government of Azerbaijan and the World Bank (WB) have started a dialogue in order to develop the country's renewable energy resources, WB Baku Office told Trend on Wednesday.

It doesn’t look like much. In fact, you could say Columbia Island is a concrete slab of an eyesore in the Long Island Sound off the coast of New Rochelle, N.Y. But soon it will be a 6,000-square-foot residence that’s off the grid and self-powered by solar and a solar storage system.

London of late has been rolling in the electric car news. The goal in that major European city of lowering its carbon emissions from greener vehicles is well under way through efforts like brand new all-electric taxi fleets and increased electric vehicle usage at nearby Heathrow airport. Now comes word of free electric vehicle charging points being offered as part of a trial to better understand the impact of EV use on the electricity network.

Solar power installations are well worth the investment, even in snowy climates, according to new research from Michigan Technological University. The albedo effect caused by white snow cover actually helps to increase solar panel efficiency (counter to what many of us might have thought).

Research shows newly developed solar powered cells may soon outperform conventional photovoltaic technology. Scientists from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have demonstrated the first solar cell with external quantum efficiency (EQE) exceeding 100 percent for photons with energies in the solar range. (The EQE is the percentage of photons that get converted into electrons within the device.)

GreenRoad app alerting drivers to inefficient manoeuvres targeted at delivery and company car fleets A new smartphone-based tool promises to cut emissions and improve safety by alerting drivers to erratic or inefficient driving.
