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” – […]

Green pollution: UK must act immediately to prevent a huge waste management problem caused by electric car batteries
Electric vehicles are poised to create a massive waste management problem in the future without early intervention to reduce waste from electric vehicle batteries, according to a study published in the journal Nature. In a review of current battery recycling efforts, a team led by the University of Birmingham researchers reported that the British government and the industry need to act now to meet future […]

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 […]

Will the EU succeed in using hydrogen to decarbonize “heavy” industry?
Many European steel, cement and petrochemicals companies are exploring hydrogen to reduce their carbon footprints and meet emissions deadlines set by the European Union (EU). But many roadblocks such as the lack of hydrogen infrastructure may stall goals of decarbonizing “heavy” industry and ushering in the “hydrogen economy,” according to a report last week from the Financial Times. EU companies testing hydrogen […]

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 […]

Portable heater fuel: Is kerosene better than propane?
It’s important to have a reliable emergency heat source that can operate without electricity in the event of a prolonged power outage. While spare blankets and extra clothing can help keep you warm, no emergency heater works better than kerosene and propane heaters. But which of the two will serve you best in an emergency scenario is a little […]

Pipelines as alternative fuel sources in a post-SHTF world
Survival in a post-SHTF world is extremely difficult because fuel is scarce. As people desert their jobs and oil pipelines become unmanned for a long time, fuel shortages will be something you have to be prepared for. Unfortunately, fuel isn’t like food you can grow. It is sourced from the earth and undergoes several complicated […]

Homestead must-haves: The best solar batteries for off-grid use
Using solar panels alone is not enough to efficiently power your off-grid home. For better energy storage, you might want to consider installing solar batteries. Solar batteries store the excess energy produced by your solar panels for later use. You don’t have to send the excess energy back to the power grid. When your solar panels are not producing […]

10 Things to consider before purchasing a generator
Grid failure is a major concern for societies that are heavily reliant on the power grid. It may seem unlikely but the truth is that America’s power grids are highly vulnerable to EMP attacks and extreme weather. Since you need electricity to power your home, it’s important to have a generator installed before SHTF so you can keep essential appliances on during a […]

From light to liquid fuel: Experts use sunlight and a copper-based catalyst to turn carbon dioxide into methanol
A team led by Argonne National Laboratory researchers has found a new way to convert carbon dioxide into methanol, an alcohol commonly used as an alternative fuel. In a paper published in the journal Nature Energy, the researchers described how they used sunlight and a copper-based catalyst to trigger carbon dioxide conversion. Using photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide to fuel […]
