Electrical energy can be generated naturally when fresh water comes into contact with salt water through a membrane during what is known as osmosis. The concept is relatively simple: a semipermeable membrane separates two liquids with different salt concentrations, and salt ions pass through the membrane until both concentrations equilibrate. The innovation is based on … Read more
World Solar Bank is a financing agency that is aimed to pool resources from across the globe and use them to fund solar projects in International Solar Alliance (ISA) member countries.

The nuclear energy that is currently produced in nuclear power plants to produce electricity is based on nuclear fission, finally, science has achieved “a breakthrough” in the relentless quest to make the most of nuclear fusion. For the first time, researchers have created a nuclear fusion reaction that has produced more energy than was invested. Electricity … Read more
Solar shingles are small solar panels designed to resemble and replace traditional roofing materials, such as asphalt shingles, with energy-generating alternatives. Rather than being mounted on top of the roof, like most home solar panels, solar tiles are incorporated into the roof itself, an example of building-integrated photovoltaics. The advantage of solar tiles is mainly … Read more
Many defend solar energy as an alternative to consider for a sustainable future. But inevitably we run into a snag. Beyond the use that can be made of sunlight with the technology we currently use in solar panels, the big problem is that solar farms occupy kilometres of space. Space that has a value, which … Read more
When Hurricane Ian moved into Southwest Florida this week, it was a real test for the community. The storm destroyed the nearby areas of Fort Myers and Naples with record-breaking waves and winds of over 100 mph. Babcock Ranch, the first 100% solar community in the United States, passed through Tropical Storm Ian with no … Read more
