Storing and transporting hydrogen, a clean fuel that can provide power off-grid
Hydrogen might just be the fuel of the future. An energy carrier like electricity, it can store tremendous amounts of energy and power places with no access to the power grid. And whether it’s used in a fuel cell or burned to create heat, its only byproducts are clean water and heat. But the “hydrogen economy” – […]

3D printing manufacturing hubs could transform cities
Imagine a city that doesn’t have to rely on factories several hundreds of miles away to supply the needs of its residents. This self-sufficient city could become its own manufacturing hub. Now, researchers from Cardiff University have found a way to make that happen. In a recent study published in the journal Computers & Operations Research, researchers described how 3D […]

Stanford researchers create photon diode for all-optical computer that runs on light instead of electricity
Researchers from Stanford University developed a photon diode that could be used for an all-optical computer that uses light instead of electricity for computing. Photon diodes — devices that allow light to flow in only one direction — are ubiquitous in modern electronics and can be found in LEDs, solar cells and integrated circuits used in computing and communications. But most diodes are not small enough for […]

Scientists try a “futuristic experiment” using dozens of plasma guns to generate fusion power
Researchers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico are performing a “futuristic experiment” using dozens of plasma guns to harness fusion energy. The plasma guns are components of the lab’s Plasma Liner Experiment (PLX), a fusion reactor operating on a novel combination of two existing methods of hydrogen fusion. Reactor uses hybrid fusion methods Hydrogen fusion […]

Humans are no match for artificial intelligence – “It’s not even close,” says Nobel laureate
In an interview with The Guardian, Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman opined that artificial intelligence (AI) would be the undisputed winner in the workplace battle between robots and humans. “Clearly AI is going to win [against human intelligence]. It’s not even close,” he told the paper. “How people are going to adjust to this is a fascinating problem.” Kahneman, […]

Garbage-gobbling machine combats marine pollution in Baltimore
A machine that “eats” garbage floating in the water has been cleaning up the bays of Baltimore. Called Mr. Trash Wheel, the 50-foot-long contraption has gobbled up more than three million pounds of trash in the historic Inner Harbor since its debut in 2014, according to CNET. John Kellett, founder of Clearwater Mills, a locally owned and operated logistics company, invented Mr. […]

40-Seater FLYING BUS to start airlifting travelers in New York City by 2024
New York startup Kelekona unveiled plans to develop a 40-seater flying bus that could transport people starting 2024. The first route for the service would transport people between Manhattan to the Hamptons for $85. Video animation from the company showed an electric air shuttle that looked like a cross between a blimp and a flying saucer. The aircraft would have eight […]

Portable wind turbine fits in your backpack’s side pocket, charges your electronic devices off-grid
A Canadian startup has developed a small-scale, portable wind turbine that can be brought anywhere and be used to charge electronic devices off the grid. Called the Shine Turbine Wind Charger, the 40-watt turbine works the same way as the massive wind turbines that dot the countryside. The difference comes down to the size and weight. According to Halifax-based company Aurea Technologies, […]

Solar homes: Utah apartment doubles as a “virtual power plant” that harnesses solar energy
A new apartment complex in Utah will never go dark during a power crisis with the solar batteries installed in each of its units. Charged via rooftop solar panels, the batteries collectively form a “virtual power plant” that can provide backup electricity not only to the building but even to a strained power grid. Utah apartment is more than just a home Called Soleil […]
