There has been much talk about renewable energy production and reduced consumption. Now, engineers are looking at the link between the two: Could smart grids and power meters start an energy revolution?
Covered by concentrating solar power plants, less than one percent of the world’s deserts could produce all of our electricity by 2050. So what is stopping us from doing it?
Theoretically, wind could produce enough energy to meet global demand. In 2006, however, less than one percent of global electricity consumption came from wind. Why such an imbalance?
Coal is the world’s number one source of electricity. Unfortunately, it is also the number one energy source of carbon dioxide emissions.
Modern societies need energy to function. When supply is disrupted, life can come to a grinding halt. What are the threats and how are countries responding?
Transportation is the fastest-growing source of greenhouse gases. See how different modes of transportation are affecting the climate, and how they could become more sustainable.
