(Phys.org)—Households with plug-in hybrid vehicles, or PHVs, and smart meters actively managed how, when and where they charged their cars based on electricity rates but rarely took advantage of online feedback, a University of Colorado Boulder study found. http://phys.org/news269676747.html Technology Wed, 17 Oct 2012 07:12:38 EST news269676747 Consumers could save on power bills thanks to an energy saving solution devised by two savvy students at the University of Sydney's Faculty of Engineering and Information Technologies. http://phys.org/news257486500.html Technology Tue, 29 May 2012 05:01:46 EST news257486500 The average U.S. citizen is willing to pay 13 percent more for electricity in support of a national clean-energy standard (NCES), according to Yale and Harvard researchers in Nature Climate Change. http://phys.org/news256047845.html Technology Sun, 13 May 2012 13:00:07 EST news256047845 Clean energy can help meet growing electricity demand and minimize pollution in the Southern United States, but progress to adopt renewable energy strategies has been hindered by a number of myths, according to a new study by Duke and Georgia Tech researchers. http://phys.org/news241962412.html Technology Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:47:30 EST news241962412 The South could pay less for its electricity in 20 years than is currently projected if strong public policies are enacted to spur renewable energy production and use, according to a report released today by researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Duke University. The 190-page report, "Renewable Energy in the South," builds on a short policy brief released last summer and provides an in-depth assessment of the scope of renewable energy resources in the South and their economic impacts on electricity rates and utility bills in the region. http://phys.org/news211717573.html Technology Thu, 16 Dec 2010 10:50:01 EST news211717573
