Crops even grew better than under a normal glass roof. Most common solar modules currently consist of silicon-based solar cells. These are stable and relatively efficient, but rigid, largely opaque and thick. This is different with organic solar cells. For these flexible polymer-based modules, semiconductor compounds are applied as a thin layer on a...
was 15 to 20 meters higher than today. It is not obvious that the study "The State of Carbon Dioxide Removal" (CDR) is particularly aimed at new technologies for CO2 removal, which have so far been inefficient and therefore risky. Although reforestation is not possible indefinitely, there is still a lot of potential. There is also considerable potential in the rewetting of...

Ton-kilometers in trucks have fallen slightly since 1995. However, these successes evaporated due to the ever-increasing mileage of an ever-growing vehicle fleet. No matter how efficient the manufacturers made the engines, they could not combat the political idea that 80 million people should only get around by car. Even Wissing doesn't dare...

This means that when older wind turbines are replaced with more modern, more efficient wind turbines, the general minimum distance that has previously prevented many repowering projects will no longer apply. With an accompanying application, the state parliamentary groups commission...
Sound waves as an electrolysis turbo High-frequency vibrations increase hydrogen yield 14 times Good Vibrations: An amazingly simple tool could make hydrogen production more efficient. If you expose electrolysis to high-frequency sound waves, the vibrations increase the hydrogen yield 14 times, as an experiment has now shown. The reason: On the one hand...

the climate crisis, but also because of the price increases caused by the war in Ukraine and other factors. But even though there are already some wind turbines in Germany, we don't use them really efficiently. According to the NDR, around 3,1 billion kilowatt hours of energy are lost every year in Schleswig-Holstein alone. This is because the wind turbines are located in...

from the renowned MIT have presented a variant of a thermal photovoltaic (TPV) cell that converts heat into electricity with an efficiency of over 40 percent. It is therefore somewhat more efficient than the usual steam turbines. The vast majority of our electricity supply consists of making water hot in some way - by burning fossil fuels or by nuclear fission...
