Electric Vehicles' Unsustainable Little Secret - Batteries Are the Weak Link in the Sustainability Chain
Typically made from raw materials including cobalt, nickel and manganese, lithium-ion batteries are extremely expensive to produce and require high levels of mining activity.
Solving the Carbon dilemma
Beyond moving away from fossil fuels, one of the most promising strategies is trapping carbon and either sequestering it in the ground, or using it for other applications. There are a number of ways this can be done.
World Energy Storage Day: Fixing Flaws in Li-ion Batteries
IDTechEx have forecasted lithium-ion battery demand to reach over 2500 GWh for electric vehicles alone. However, the uptake of lithium-ion batteries is not without cost - they still present both technological and environmental problems.
Green Software - A New Trend for a Better Planet
How to call the wider group of companies which bring to market innovations that could replace existing technologies with more environmental-friendly ones, even if their primary goal doesn't strictly align with the definition of Green Tech?
How photovoltaic glass can be used to cut harmful emissions
This versatility means that PV glass can be used for several different applications to help individuals and businesses reduce their energy costs by replacing conventional glass in buildings, vehicles and other structures.
Overcoming the rare earths shortage with the circular economy
To contribute to limiting the global use of rare earths, manufacturers could consider replacing their traditional linear economy model with a circular model. In the circular economy model, products and materials are recovered and regenerated at the end of their service lives.
Funding Biopolymer Research Is Better Than Fracking
If companies are to take responsibility for their huge plastic waste footprints, they need to start investing in the search for cheaper, durable and truly sustainable alternatives. But how can this be achieved?
Battery Materials to Become Greener with Advent of Sustainable Energy Revolution
In today's era, energy storage plays a crucial role in our life and battery material is at the core when it comes to fulfilling energy storage demand.
Recent innovations in turning Agricultural Waste into Biofuels
Wastes from fields and wastes from processing are the two kinds of agricultural wastes. Field wastes are present after harvesting crops and include stems, leaves, and stalks, and waste after processing crops includes seeds, peels, husks, etc.
Environment Preservation & Other Outstanding Benefits of Battery Recycling
Millions of batteries with their hazardous components get dumped in landfills all over the world. Most of these batteries are never properly disposed of and recycled. Battery recycling is the solution to this problem.
What Is the Carbon Footprint of Wind Turbines?
Until America develops enough renewable power to support all industrial production, turbines may continue generating atmospheric pollution. Over time, professionals predict the effects will decrease as society transitions away from fossil fuel-reliant energy.
New Columbia Solar Puts $30,000 Per Year on Scoreboard for D.C. United's Audi Field
To save money, and operate sustainably while doing so, a growing number of stadiums around the world are turning to solar to power their massive banks of floodlights, sound systems, luxury boxes and flashing video screens.
How Launching Recycling Task Forces Could Benefit Clean Energy
When fueled by clean energy, recycling facilities can significantly lower their greenhouse gas emissions. They can also save money on utility costs.
Automating Renewable Energy Maintenance
Companies can prevent issues by performing routine maintenance. These actions extend a renewable energy device's life and prevent its components from experiencing additional stress. Well-kept machinery can operate more efficiently than neglected solar or wind technology.
Awty Unveils Carbon-Neutral Container Farm Thanks to Sustainability Grant From Green Mountain Energy Sun Club
