Tiny drops of water might not seem like powerhouse energy producers, but a new method shows how simple tubes might be able to turn falling rain into an energy source. In tests, the method was able to ...

A new review published in Energy & Environment Nexus examines how innovative geometric designs of tubular solid oxide fuel cells could accelerate the transition to cleaner and more efficient energy ...

This new organic thermoelectric device can convert room temperature heat, which is abundant in living environments and was previously not considered a possible energy source, into usable electrical ...

A team of engineers and material scientists in the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering at CU Boulder has developed a new technology to turn thermal radiation into electricity in a way ...

According to the EIA’s “Electric Power Monthly” report, which includes data through September 2024, solar power generation (including both utility-scale and rooftop installations) shot up by 25.9% ...

Over the past 12 months, solar photovoltaic sources accounted for more than 6.8% of all electricity generated in the U.S., up from 5.5% in 2023, a 24% year-over-year increase, according to the U.S.

America isn’t making electricity the way it did two decades ago. Natural gas surpassed coal as the country’s top source of power in 2016, and renewables like wind and solar have grown quickly to ...

Solar generation is forecast to meet roughly half of the growth in global electricity demand through to 2027, according to the International Energy Agency’s (IEA) Electricity 2025 report. The agency’s ...

Thermoelectric devices are devices that can convert heat into electrical energy. Researchers have now developed a thermoelectric device composed of organic materials that can generate electricity from ...
