Things Worth Noting
As surging energy demands from AI, electric vehicles, and global growth strain power grids, the global power crisis brings frequent shortages, rising costs, and reliance on fossil backups. Weather-dependent renewables like solar and wind, while transformative, suffer from intermittency that disrupts reliable supply. Next-gen geothermal energy, through enhanced systems drilling into hot dry rock, provides […]
A sustainable transportation ecosystem aims to cut emissions, reduce car dependence, and ensure everyone can access clean, affordable mobility. It links zero-emission vehicles, renewable energy, smart grids, and multimodal networks like public transit, shared mobility, and micromobility. Circular manufacturing, battery recycling, and resilient infrastructure help lower waste and resource use. Community engagement and inclusive design […]
Princeton researchers made green hydrogen cheaper and more sustainable by using treated wastewater instead of expensive ultrapure water in electrolysis. Adding a small amount of sulfuric acid prevents calcium and magnesium ions from clogging the proton exchange membrane, extending electrolyzer life from 8 hours to over 300 hours. This simple fix cuts water treatment costs […]
