One of the stumbling blocks that has held back more widespread adaptation of certain forms of green energy has been the higher cost associated with first converting to them.
Washington State University researchers have found a way to more efficiently create hydrogen from water - an important key in making renewable energy production and storage viable.
We are increasingly thinking about hydrogen as a successor of crude oil—for instance, through the use of hydrogen fuel cells. But where will the hydrogen come from? Industrial or domestic bioreactors using green algae could ...
As we enter the age of hybrid, electric and self-driving cars, interest remains high in finding the next generation of fuel cell technology that is low cost, long lasting and mass producible. In recent years, fuel cell research ...
Researchers from Delft University of Technology (TU Delft, The Netherlands), in collaboration with colleagues from the École Polytechnique Fédéral de Lausanne (EPFL, Switzerland), have found a simple yet very effective solution ...
The need for a sustainable energy supply is now a hot topic. Companies are investing in it, and scientists around the globe are looking for alternatives to the production of energy from oil and gas. One such project, which ...
Mobilizing oxygen atoms from the crystal surface of perovskite-oxide electrodes to participate in the formation of oxygen gas is key to speeding up water-splitting reactions, researchers at MIT, the Skoltech Institute of ...
Groundbreaking research at Griffith University is leading the way in clean energy, with the use of carbon as a way to deliver energy using hydrogen.
Researchers have boosted the efficiency of water electrolysis. They applied a layer of copper atoms in a conventional platinum electrode. Thus, reaction intermediates could desorb a bit more easily from the catalyst surface. ...
Penn State researcher Chunshan Song has a plan to address one of the most important issues facing the world today—reducing greenhouse gas emissions to curb the negative impacts of climate change.
