Vestas Secures Service Agreements for Senvion Turbines Across Three Wind Farms in Australia

In partnership with global energy producer EDL, Vestas has secured service agreements for the three Australian wind farms of Coober Pedy in South Australia, Cullerin Range in New South Wales and Wonthaggi in Victoria. Leveraging its world-class multibrand capabilities, Vestas will deliver the maintenance of 23 Senvion MM82 and MM92-2.05 MW wind turbines across the three sites for a total of 47 MW.

New Data Show Previous Estimates of the Climate Impact of Cattle Grazing are off

Scientists have shown that direct emissions of a powerful greenhouse gas from certain pasture types are lower than previously thought - meaning the climate impact of grass-fed cattle herds may be overestimated.

Drainage of Peatlands in Southeast Asia Contributes to Climate Change

In less than three decades, most of Southeast Asia's peatlands have been wholly or partially deforested, drained, and dried out.

Coastal Population Highly Vulnerable to Climate Change-Driven Changes

A new study finds that about 31 million people worldwide live in coastal regions that are "highly vulnerable" to future tropical storms and sea-level rise driven by climate change.

Mangroves Will Not Survive Rising Sea-Levels if Carbon Emissions Go Unchecked

Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), and an international research team have predicted that by 2050, mangroves will not be able to survive rising sea-levels if global carbon emissions are not reduced.

New Study Measures Amount of Burned Carbon Flushed Out by Rivers into Oceans

The extent to which rivers transport burned carbon to oceans - where it can be stored for tens of millennia - is revealed in new research led by the University of East Anglia (UEA).

Reduced Ocean Carbon Sink is Related to Slow Growth Rate of Atmospheric CO2

Volcanic eruptions and human-caused changes to the atmosphere strongly influence the rate at which the ocean absorbs carbon dioxide, says a new study.

Two-Component Bioelectrode Could Optimize Energy Production of Solar Cells

Protein complexes that take part in photosynthesis are prospective sources of renewable energy. But in technical applications, their efficiency is less than satisfactory. For instance, these proteins do not have the capability to convert green light into energy.
