Rethinking hydropower for energy and environmental sustainability
A “quantum leap” creates a new perovskite LED that could take displays to the next level
A breakthrough in the cost and longevity of interconnected power delivery
A next-generation thermochromic window reduces the need for air conditioning and simultaneously generates electricity
Another leap towards beating plastic waste
Hybrid systems of floating solar panels and hydropower plants hold significant potential for global energy
The best solar cell so far? New perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells are affordable and efficient
Thinner solar cells could significantly lower costs and result in faster industry expansion
Short-lived solar panels can be economically viable
Floating solar photovoltaics could generate about 10 percent of U. S. annual electricity production
Converting plant waste into sustainable and high-value products such as nylon, plastics, chemicals, and fuels
Could a plastic-eating enzyme help clean up the planet?
