In a groundbreaking development, researchers at Julius-Maximilians-Universität (JMU) Würzburg have unveiled a pioneering light-harvesting system that promises to reshape the landscape of solar energy technology.
Doubling of atmospheric CO2 could cause the Earth's average temperature to rise by 7 to 14 degrees Celsius, much higher than previously estimated, a study has found.
Researchers in Switzerland are introducing a method to use solar energy instead of fossil fuels to generate the high temperatures required for smelting steel and producing cement.
Plans by the UK government for a major hydrogen heating trial have been delayed, signalling a move towards electricity as the primary energy source for household heating.
The UK has granted hundreds of North Sea oil and gas licenses to ‘reduce reliance on hostile states’ and enhance energy security, but critics note this move is not only bad for the environment, but also will not change British oil and gas for the better.
July 2023 has seen extreme heat events sweeping North America, Europe and China. Researchers point to the need for ending burning fossil fuels and heat action plans across affected cities.
President Biden’s approval of the $8 billion Willow Project has rightly sparked environmental outrage across the globe, but are the political consequences of its endorsement being overlooked?
CEO Denis Collins, a former global executive with IBM and previous Chair IDA Ireland Regional Development & Board Director, talks to OAG about ActionZero and their patented heat pump technology – the EscoPod.
