Researchers create the largest see-through solar module ever produced

Homeowners associations are notoriously resistant to solar, often banning roof-top installations that conflict with their aesthetic values. But what if you could install an invisible solar system on your home that no one knows is there?

Ocean supremacy: the world’s largest “eco” super-yacht

Traditionally, a super-yacht is a vast, luxurious vessel where its opulence is only matched by its fuel consumption. However recently, the super wealthy have been making an attempt to show their green credentials by purchasing greener and more efficient ships. Sauter Carbon Offset Design (SCOD) have not set the standard by which all other green super-yachts will now be measured with the 42m Ocean Supremacy - the largest, greenest super-yacht in the world.
