The new SunZia wind energy transmission line will bring at least 3,500 megawatts of wind energy from New Mexico to Arizona and points west.
The ACEN group made two announcements over the weekend. The first one, through AMI AC Renewables, a subsidiary of AMI Khanh Hoa, was a collaboration with energy technology supplier Honeywell to embark on an ambitious pilot project involving a battery energy storage system (BESS) in Khanh Hoa, Vietnam. The second one, initiated last May 9 […]
A municipality in Sweden will soon be getting a new preschool, and the cool thing is that it will be built using only electric machinery. Coincidently, the emission-free workplace will be the first electrified construction site in the EU. Located in Östersund, the current Ottfjället preschool consists of 3 departments, with room for 54 children. […]
The BLUETTI AC180 is a compact and efficient portable power station that, when paired with BLUETTI’s 200 watt portable solar panel, becomes one of the better solar generators on the market today. The name itself is somewhat awkwardly derived from the unit’s AC output capacity of 1,800 watts. The AC180 stands out with its compact […]

Tires play a crucial role in the efficiency and overall performance of electric vehicles, and also vehicles in general. They are the only point of contact between the vehicle and the road, and hence, their design and quality have a significant impact on various aspects of driving. One of the key factors is energy efficiency. […]
Global economic conditions seem to be a little tumultuous at the moment, don’t they? In this post, I’m going to look at the US situation only, but as we know, the US is a pretty good proxy for global economic conditions. I’m also going to go briefly into how that seems to be affecting cleantech. […]
The long wait for low cost, high performance perovskite solar cells is coming to a close. Now the fun begins.
Since 2007, the use of coal for electricity generation has generally been in decline, while the use of renewables has been on the rise. Electricity generation from nuclear had remained relatively flat over the last two decades but has experienced a slight decline in recent years. In 2022, net generation of electricity from renewables reached […]
