EARTH Magazine takes you to Le Mans, France, to cover how the World Endurance Competition (WEC) race series is transforming automotive efficiency in both high-performance racing and the commercial automotive industries.
Dominion Retail, Inc., a subsidiary of Dominion, and SunPower Corp., a global solar technology and services company, today announced a collaboration of the two companies to offer high-performance SunPower® solar power systems to New Jersey homeowners. Dominion Energy Solutions will provide program details to residents through a marketing campaign scheduled to begin this summer.
The poor performance of the mineral hematite began the quest for the identification of a suitable method for mining electron-rich hydrogen to achieve clean power. Researchers from the Boston College, UC Berkeley and China's University of Science and Technology have developed a smoother form of hematite by 're-growing' the mineral's surface. The new version was found to increase the electrical yield by twofold, paving way for the energy-harvesting artificial photosynthesis. The research was published in the Nature Communications journal.
Using a novel energy efficient façade improves the comfort of residents while saving them money
Leading LED lighting manufacturer LG Electronics today announced an important milestone in its collaboration with Davenport University. LG is supplying super-efficient fixtures across all of Davenport's campuses across the Great Lakes State as part of a multi-year program to convert existing lighting to energy-efficient LED solutions by 2018. Davenport has already installed more than 600 LG LED fixtures as part of this initiative, including troffers, tubes and cans.
Ameresco, Inc., a leading energy efficiency and renewable energy company, yesterday joined Army officials to commemorate the completion of a multi-phase renewable energy and energy efficiency project at the Adelphi Laboratory Center in Adelphi, Maryland, a research and development facility that falls under the U.S. Army Installation Management Command.
Maxsys is pleased to introduce the new T2 Maxsys Fuel System, a new smaller energy saving system designed for industrial burners up to 250 m3 (8,827 ft3) of gas per hour. Like its larger counterpart the T1, which has been successfully employed on a variety of energy intensive applications on much larger burners, the new unit guarantees annual savings in fuel consumption of 5%, with a corresponding reduction in CO2, VOC, almost eliminate CO. Most users report higher savings, in the range of 6%-9%.
The ‘GESTOIL’ system is an economic, easy-to-operate piece of technology, and when actively used it enables significant fuel savings to be made. With this tool the skipper can from the bridge of the vessel see fuel consumption displayed instantly; this puts him in a position to be able to optimize it depending on the sailing conditions at each moment.
Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have conducted the most comprehensive study yet of the full cost of saving electricity by U.S. utility efficiency programs and now have an answer: 4.6 cents.
For the first time, industry and policymakers have a comprehensive report detailing the U.S. hydropower fleet's 2,198 plants that provide about 7 percent of the nation's electricity.
