A team of researchers from UMass Lowell, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and China Agricultural University in Beijing has developed a new, sustainable way of converting wet biological waste into diesel-compatible fuel, using heat and water.

The world’s largest offshore wind farm began operations this week in the North Sea.

Electric cars rely on the same lithium-ion battery technology that’s in smartphones, laptops and virtually everything electronic.

Wearable devices that harvest energy from movement are not a new idea, but a material created at Rice University may make them more practical.

Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have designed a new, organic cathode material for lithium batteries. 

Florida’s largest utility has started construction on 10 new solar projects with a total capacity of 745 megawatts (MW).

After years of making progress on an organic aqueous flow battery, Harvard University researchers ran into a problem: the organic anthraquinone molecules that powered their ground-breaking battery were slowly decomposing over time, reducing the long-term usefulness of the battery.

University of Saskatchewan (USask) PhD student Arthur Situm has developed a new non-invasive technique to study the rusting of steel.

On a November afternoon in 2017, a magnitude 5.5 earthquake shook Pohang, South Korea, injuring dozens and forcing more than 1,700 of the city’s residents into emergency housing.

Because of their high energy-storage density, materials such as metal oxides, sulfides, and fluorides are promising electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles and other technologies.
