Researchers at the Australian National University have improved energy storage technology inside electronic devices. They…
The way we generate, transfer and use energy is changing, and our energy systems and infrastructure have come under increasing pressure to cope. Black-outs strike where we would expect reliable supplies…
A new, carbon-neutral thermocell could harvest waste heat from power stations and convert it into electricity. Researchers…
Researchers at ANU have developed a new material that is able to store large amounts of energy with minimal energy loss…
The handling of Britain’s energy strategy leaves much to be desired, subject as it is to short term politics over long term planning. We face a trilemma that stems from the opposing tension of climate…
In visiting Australia regularly for the last two decades I have never quite understood why greater value is not placed on the nation’s latent solar and nuclear energy assets. Perhaps it is because Australia…
Hydrogen can be released and reabsorbed from nano-structured storage material, overcoming a major hurdle to its use as an…
A solar energy revolution is brewing that will put the coal and nuclear industries out of business. Solar is already reaching price parity with coal in many parts of Australia. In contrast to coal and…
Radioactive tags have been used by scientists to uncover an environmental market where plants and fungi trade energy. The…
Project: To develop better batteries for renewable energy Cost: Around $1.2 million per year (for a team of eight people across several disciplines) Timeframe: First generation technology within three…
A combination of water and graphite could create energy storage systems which recharge in a matter of seconds and have an…
