Lehigh University's Energy Research Center (ERC) has been awarded a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to develop methods of recovering and reusing the heat that would be generated by the carbon-dioxide (CO2) compression process in a carbon capture system. The goal of the research project is to facilitate carbon capture and sequestration, or storage (CCS), and thus limit the amount of CO2, a greenhouse gas, emitted into the atmosphere by coal-fired power plants. http://www.physorg.com/news177940311.html Space & Earth Fri, 20 Nov 2009 11:54:44 EST news177940311 Advanced composite materials are playing a vital role in improved design and reduced operating costs for renewable energy technologies. Research presented today will highlight how wind, marine and solar power could address these challenges within the renewable energy industry. http://www.physorg.com/news165567084.html Technology Tue, 30 Jun 2009 08:10:01 EST news165567084 Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has signed an agreement with Siemens Energy Inc. to provide high-resolution atmospheric modeling capabilities to improve the efficiency of wind farm sites, turbine design and wind farm operations. http://www.physorg.com/news154704816.html Technology Tue, 24 Feb 2009 13:34:40 EST news154704816 (Physorg.com) -- A Seattle man has invented a small wind turbine that can be installed on homeowners' rooftops. The "Jellyfish" wind turbine generates about 40 kilowatt hours each month, which is enough to light a home using high-efficiency bulbs. http://www.physorg.com/news152460451.html Technology Thu, 29 Jan 2009 14:07:57 EST news152460451 (PhysOrg.com) -- A quiet wind turbine developed in Scotland is now available in the US and Canada. Its developers say that the roof-based turbine can provide significant power for homes and commercial buildings alike. http://www.physorg.com/news144674984.html Technology Fri, 31 Oct 2008 12:29:44 EST news144674984 Oxford researchers have developed a new tidal turbine which has the potential to harness tidal energy more efficiently and cheaply, using a device which is simpler and more robust and scaleable than current designs. http://www.physorg.com/news140270371.html Technology Wed, 10 Sep 2008 12:59:31 EST news140270371
