Machine learning and solar energy unite for sustainable soil remediation by Riko Seibo Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Oct 21, 2025 Soil contamination continues to endanger ecosystems, agriculture, and human health worldwide. Traditional cleanup methods, while effective, remain energy-intensive and carbon-heavy, making long-term sustainability difficult to achieve. Researchers have now developed a photovoltaic thermo-electro dual […]
Water-boosted sodium-ion battery could store energy and desalinate seawater by Sophie Jenkins London, UK (SPX) Oct 21, 2025 Scientists at the University of Surrey have discovered a simple yet transformative way to enhance sodium-ion battery performance – by keeping the water inside a key electrode material rather than removing it. The finding not […]
Standardized testing could fast-track indoor solar power for smart devices by Clarence Oxford Los Angeles CA (SPX) Oct 21, 2025 Researchers from Simon Fraser University’s (SFU) School of Sustainable Energy Engineering (SEE) have introduced a new framework to standardize the testing of indoor solar technology-an advance that could accelerate the deployment of self-powered […]
Solar-powered lights keep sea turtles out of fishing nets by ASU Staff Writers Tempe AZ (SPX) Oct 16, 2025 Studies have shown that lighted nets can reduce bycatch of sea turtles and sharks, but the idea has faced many hurdles to adoption. The batteries are short lived, expensive to replace and raise disposal […]
AI model sharpens solar forecasts to support satellite network stability by Riko Seibo Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Oct 16, 2025 Accurate solar radiation forecasting is crucial for the stability of photovoltaic power systems, yet current models often blur as prediction time increases. Addressing this challenge, researchers led by Nanjing University of Information Science and […]
Beyond Gravity boosts Swiss production of solar array mechanisms by Clarence Oxford Zurich, Switzerland (SPX) Oct 16, 2025 Beyond Gravity has expanded its Swiss production capacity for solar array drive mechanisms (SADMs) by doubling its manufacturing floor area, enabling a fivefold increase in annual output from 36 to 200 units. The expansion underscores […]
