Japan’s Mitsui OSK Lines (MOL) has started demonstration tests of a new windshield for containerships, potentially reducing wind resistance, saving fuel and lowering carbon dioxide emissions.

New energy standards for home boilers entering into force this month are expected to take offline the equivalent of 47 Fukushima-type nuclear power stations in Europe by 2020, according to official EU data compiled by the European Environmental Bureau (EEB).

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has been financing Turkish banks that offer these loans to their clients since 2010. Overall, the bank has invested close to $3 billion in energy projects in the country, and the result has been $700 million in savings since the EBRD began the program.

Hydrogen could be the ideal fuel: Whether used to make electricity in a fuel cell or burned to make heat, the only byproduct is water; there is no climate-altering carbon dioxide.

Croatia is one of the recognized leaders in South-East Europe in the field of energy management, monitoring and assessment of the energy consumption, which are important aspects of the rational use of energy in buildings. That is why Croatia was chosen as the country for a study tour of officials and experts of Turkmenistan on energy conservation and management in buildings.

Pursuant to the National Strategy for Green Growth by 2050 approved by the Prime Minister, Vietnam identified three strategic assignments: Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and promotion of clean renewable energy; green production, greening of lifestyles and promotion of sustainable consumption.

The coal mining units will be charged the highest environmental fee of up to VND14,000/ton, an increase of VND4,000 compared with the current rate. This is the draft decree for environmental protection charges for mineral extraction which has been released by Ministry of Finance for consultation on September 4th, 2015.

The U.S. Department of Energy is helping homebuyers determine a house's energy efficiency before making a purchase.

A team of scientists with the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the University of Illinois created solar cells that collect blue photons at 30 times the concentration of conventional solar cells, the highest luminescent concentration factor ever recorded.

While many of us may enjoy grilling food over an open fire, the fact is that cooking fires are a major source of health problems for millions of people in developing nations, who use them on a daily basis.

The American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) has released the 2015 International Scorecard Self-Scoring Tool for countries to conduct an energy efficiency rating, reported Energy Management Today last week.

Understatement should not be on the agenda here: the Lefdal Mine Datacenter (LMD), a 120,000 square metre installation under construction near Måløy on Norway's west coast is going to be the European’s largest data centre, producing a capacity of 100 megawatts. According to its operators, their goal is to become Europe’s number one in terms of cost-efficiency, security, flexibility and sustainability.

A team from MIT –- composed of students Michael Laracy and Thomas Poinot, along with professors Elsa Olivetti, Hamlin Jennings and John Ochsendorf -- has developed Eco-BLAC bricks: an alternative to traditional bricks that reuses industrial waste and is low-cost and low energy.

Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry is seeking to nearly double the budget for energy-saving measures to be adopted in places such as factories and homes as the country eyes improvements in energy efficiency.

The Global Fuel Economy Initiative (GFEI) has been formally launched in Jamaica.

The group ISA Tracto C replaced diesel with kinetic energy, saving up to 20 thousand liters of fuel annually.

Optimization of the robot's movements reduces acceleration and deceleration, as well as the time the robot is at a standstill since being at a standstill also consumes energy.

When it comes to following basic business principles, the oil and gas industry is no different from any other: reducing energy, increasing operational efficiency and cutting costs are critically important to any successful enterprise.

We’ve seen several transparent solar cell concepts, but perhaps none with such ambitious claims as those made by SolarWindow Technologies.
