Singapore researchers developed a water-based air conditioning system which doesn’t need energy-intensive compressors or harmful chemical refrigerants.
It is wholly a confusion to suppose that more efficient lighting leads to diminished consumption. The evidence from space says otherwise.
Berkeley Lab researchers are using the science of the very small to help solve big challenges. Here are five projects, now underway which promise big results from the smallest of building blocks.
The United States could reduce greenhouse gas emissions by almost 80 percent from 1990 levels, and do so as soon as 2030, without significantly increasing energy prices, claims a new study by researchers from NOAA and the University of Colorado.
As global energy use rises, some nations are ramping up their energy efficiency. So which countries use the least amount of energy?
No more cost-effective way to make major cuts in energy use and greenhouse gas emissions exists than retrofitting buildings. Now, from New York to Mumbai to Melbourne, a push is on to overhaul older buildings to make them more energy efficient.
