The team at Sapphire Technologies has developed equipment that generates zero-carbon electricity using natural gas pipeline pressure differentials. Sapphire CEO, Freddie Sarhan, is center-frame, sixth ...

Chinese researchers have recently developed a floating hydrovoltaic device that harvests electricity from raindrops.

Inspired by the classic drinking bird toy, scientists in Hong Kong and Guangzhou, China have developed an engine that efficiently converts energy from water evaporation into electricity to power small ...

The PG-1 thermoelectric power generator allows users to generate electricity with canned fuel or other heat source. This self-contained device is suitable for demonstrating the Seebeck effect. The ...

How can open ocean currents generate energy? Ocean currents contain kinetic energy that can be converted to electrical power using turbines. This is similar to offshore wind farms, or wind turbines ...

Solar energy has long been celebrated for its ability to harness the power of the sun, but until recently, it could only ...

Portable photovoltaic systems are great for generating electricity while off the grid, but constantly moving them to keep them in the sunlight can be a hassle. Jackery's Solar Generator Mars Bot ...

Associate Professor, Energy Systems and Data Group, Birmingham Energy Institute, University of Birmingham Grant Wilson receives funding from EPSRC and InnovateUK under a range of different projects.

Traditionally, most of the small hydro electricity generators are designed with “drop” type. If there is a need for a man-made gap, it will require the corresponding civil building. To improve the ...

The country's four largest electricity generator-retailers have been given the regulatory go-ahead covering a 10-year period ...

In a controversial experiment, a team of physicists investigated whether we could harness the Earth's rotational energy to generate electricity. It's a deceptively simple idea that researchers have ...
