During operation, converter valves continuously generate a large amount of waste heat, which is currently usually removed by a valve cooling system for temperature reduction; however, because the return-water temperature of converter valves is generally low, the waste heat is of insufficient grade, making it difficult to achieve efficient recovery and cascade utilization of low-grade thermal ener…

Researchers have developed the world’s first heat-driven elastocaloric cooling system, using waste heat and solar energy to support sustainable cooling. A cooling system powered directly by heat rather than an electric motor has worked in laboratory tests, offering a possible way to turn waste heat or solar energy into cooling. The prototype, developed by researchers [...]

Energy secretary could recommend new North Sea drilling next week, as ministers also consider approval for Rosebank oilfield

Hydrogen fuel cells have moved well beyond laboratory demonstrations and niche applications. Stationary power systems are now being contracted at gigawatt scale to serve AI data centers, while heavy-duty trucks and buses are entering commercial deployment across multiple continents. The technology's ability to generate electricity at high efficiency with only water as a byproduct puts it at the c…

IntroductionUsing panel data for 282 Chinese cities from 2011 to 2023, this study examines whether AIoriented place-based policy promotes urban green development.MethodsWe exploit the staggered rollout of China’s National New Generation Artificial Intelligence Innovation and Development Pilot Zones (AIIDPZ) as a quasi-natural experiment and estimate its causal effect on urban green total factor p…

This analysis and news roundup come from the Canary Media Weekly newsletter. Sign up to get it every Friday. Solar is beating coal in China. Sorta. But also not at all. Let me explain. An eye-popping new chart made the rounds this week. It shows a line representing solar energy in China rising improbably over…

Some companies build a desalination plant and call it a day; others build a data center, while others, still, build power generation facilities. One project wants to build all three … into one facility … offshore … on a movable ship. Continue Reading Category: Energy , Engineering Tags: Data Center , Ships , Water

As farmland shrinks and solar demand soars, one Indian state found a way to generate power without sacrificing crops—by harvesting sunlight above water instead of earth.
