Hydropower dams, which use flowing water to turn a series of turbines to generate electricity, provide a source of energy that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels. But they also disrupt the flow of rivers, and impact the fish and people that live there.

Researchers at the University of Bath have developed a revolutionary desalination process that has the potential to be operated in mobile, solar-powered units.

Researchers at Chalmers ​recently completed a 5-year research project looking at how to make fibre optic communications systems more energy efficient.

UAlberta oceanographers overturn decades-old understanding of the iconic Canadian ocean system, with implications for hydroelectric power generation.

A new study reveals good news for the possibility of using perovskite materials in next-generation solar cells. 

Researchers from the University of Geneva have studied the seismic activity recorded during the drilling of a geothermal well and shown that it did not spark any major earthquake.

Human activity contaminated glacier long before people arrived, study shows.

Researchers track the charcoal supply chain through research in Uganda.

An international team led by researchers at UCL has revealed new insights into the workings of a lithium battery by virtually “unrolling” its coil of electrode layers using an algorithm designed for papyrus scrolls.

Fuel cells turn chemicals into electricity. Now, a U of T Engineering team has adapted technology from fuel cells to do the reverse: harness electricity to make valuable chemicals from waste carbon (CO2).
