According to the U.S. Department of Energy, in 2021, there were over 1,350 energy storage projects operating across the globe – 40 percent of which are here in the United States. We can expect to see that number grow, thanks to recent...
The American Clean Power Association issued a statement in response to the White House Council on Environmental Quality's (CEQ) release of
Something was destroying the motor bearings of the centrifuge and ventilation fans at the Red Trail Energy Ethanol Production Plant in North Dakota. Plant maintenance personnel realized the bearings on these large motors were failing long before...
Ever since French physicist Jacques Arsene d'Arsonval first proposed tapping the ocean's thermal energy for power back in 1881, experts have proclaimed that Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) was an idea whose time would never come. Although...
The three leading offshore renewable energy technologies are winds, waves, and tides. While widely different in form, these technologies all employ an energy capturing mechanism using either sea or wind. Although a relatively new technology,...
The United States Department of Energy recently projected that in order to meet a national goal of obtaining 20% of our electricity from wind generation by 2030, utilities must integrate some 300 GW of wind generation onto the grid. To accommodate...
The next 10 years will be crucial for the development of the wave and tidal industry. With the right research and technology, this may be seen in the future as the decade of deployment-the period in which wave and tidal technologies moved into the...
The world’s appetite for energy continues to grow, as does the technology available to capture energy. A new system has been developed for eco"friendly hydroelectric power generation that facilitates the efficient, systematic transport of...
Hydroelectric. Hydropower. Hydro. Whatever you call it, it’s all the same: a renewable, non-polluting, and reliable source of energy—an ideal solution to our nation’s immediate demand for renewable energy sources. Yes, hydropower...
By Leah S Karlov & Joanna Grossman The year-end deadline is quickly approaching for new renewable energy projects to start construction to qualify for the federal cash grant in lieu of the 30% investment tax credit. Because renewable energy...
