Generator developed for harvesting energy from droplets Scientists of the University of Twente and South China Normal University designed an electrical generator that can harvest energy from impacting droplets and other sources of mechanical energy. […]
Could we extract energy from a black hole? Our experiment verifies old theory A rotating black hole is such an extreme force of nature that it drags surrounding time and space around with it. So […]
Boosting energy levels within damaged nerves may help them heal When the spinal cord is injured, the damaged nerve fibers—called axons—are normally incapable of regrowth, leading to permanent loss of function. Considerable research has been […]
Fusion Startup Claims Breakthrough Will Provide “Unlimited” Energy “We are sidestepping all of the scientific challenges that have held fusion energy back for more than half a century.” An Australian fusion startup called HB11, a […]
Scientists measure the evolving energy of a solar flare’s explosive first minutes Toward the end of 2017, a massive new region of magnetic field erupted on the Sun’s surface next to an existing sunspot. The […]
Sustainable supply of minerals and metals key to a low-carbon energy future The global low-carbon revolution could be at risk unless new international agreements and governance mechanisms are put in place to ensure a sustainable […]
