Nature Geoscience, Published online: 21 August 2026; doi:10.1038/s41561-026-02038-6 During renewable energy droughts, emissions from fossil-fuel power plants may increase; combined with the stagnant weather typical of such periods, the result is an increased risk of extreme air pollution — as is shown to be the case in China by 2050. However, strategically over-deploying clean energy can cost-eff…

Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (Tokyo, Japan) and renewable energy company European Energy A/S (Søborg, Denmark) are working to expand the customer base and applications for the world’s first e-methanol, produced at a plant established by Solar Park Kassø ApS, a subsidiary of a joint venture between Mitsui and European Energy, located in Kassø, Aabenraa Municipality, […] The post Mitsui and European Energy e…

Dominic Muren, UW teaching professor of design, and Adrienne Russell, UW professor of communication, examine environmental problems from a perspective beyond the hard sciences. They spoke to UW News about what today’s energy crises reveal about contemporary societies’ dependence on fossil fuels and how we can create a “solar-powered system.”

Air travel may one day get a little greener thanks to an unlikely fuel source: coconuts. Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have developed a biofuel made from coconut oil that can be blended with conventional jet fuel and used in existing turbine engines without significantly reducing engine efficiency. The fuel may also help lower some […] The post Scientists Develop Coconut Jet Fuel T…

USD 5 for 27 minutes in the air – that was the power cost, when the world’s largest electric aircraft took off for the first time.

Despite hefty installation costs, electrifying your home could help you save thousands of euros, new analysis shows.

A Manhattan rooftop machine is turning air, water and electricity into gasoline, reviving a bold fuel dream while exposing the efficiency and cost hurdles that could decide its future.

In the town of Gateshead in North East England, coal mining runs thick in the blood. Up to the final coup de grâce delivered by Margaret Thatcher’s coal purge in the 1980s, Gateshead had been tapping its dark subterranean seams as far back as 1344, when packhorses conveyed “sea coal”...
