A preemptive spark lasting for nanoseconds that helps find potentially dangerous short circuits hidden in the miles of wiring behind the panels of aging…
The well-known answer to this question is that it stops being a motor and becomes a generator. Instead of using electricity to turn a propeller and drive the…
As gas prices soar and greenhouse gases continue to blanket the atmosphere, the need for a clean, safe and cheap source of energy has never seemed more pressing.
Scientists have long worked to meet that need, exploring alternative energy technologies such as wind and solar power. But, after decades of quiet progress, the spotlight is now on another potentially inexhaustible energy source.
Seven countries signed an agreement in Brussels last week (May 24) to launch cons
Hydrogen has been called “the fuel of the future.” But the gas is invisible, odorless and explosive at high concentrations, posing a safety problem for hydrogen-powered cars, filling stations and other aspects of the so-called hydrogen economy.
Now, a team of more than a dozen University of Florida engineering faculty and graduate students has found a way to jump that hurdle: a tiny, inexpensive sensor device that can detect hydrogen leaks and sound the alarm by wireless com
FSU research could bring electricity to millions who now have none at all
The number is staggering: Approximately 2 billion of the world’s people — nearly one-third of the human population — have no access to electricity. Consequently, they do without many of the amenities that people in the developed world take for granted — everything from air conditioning and refrigeration to television, indoor lighting, and pumps that supply drinking water. And without electricity
Human Security and Institutions also Crucial
At the 14th Session of the Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD-14) that took place in New York from 1 to 12 May 2006, the energy theme occupied the top position in the discussions. The pressing need for debate and action – with oil prices nearly tripling in the last two years – turned the spotlight on this UN event. Politicians and energy experts used this platform to address the energy challenge and accompanying security concerns
