The smart benches allow people to charge phones, use free WiFi, and track levels of air pollution, all powered by a solar panel.
When the blades of its 800-kilowatt wind turbine start turning, the small Greek island of Tilos will become the first in the Mediterranean to run exclusively on wind and solar power.
The world has now installed more than 1,000 gigawatts (GW) of wind and solar power, according to fresh data analysis.
Egypt’s government plans to put itself on the clean energy map with the inauguration of the world’s largest solar park. Dubbed the Benban complex, it is under construction in Egypt’s Western Desert and set to open next year.
Canadian researchers have created a bacteria-powered solar cell that works as efficiently in dim light as in bright light.
Known as the Active Classroom, the energy-producing classroom stands as a shining example of what is possible as the U.K. and other nations attempt to transform their energy systems in response to climate change.
The analysis is bases on two factors: one, that solar and wind power will get dramatically cheaper over the next few decades, and two, that cheap battery storage will allow more wind and solar plants to be built.
The roads will generate energy through a series of solar panels that are installed underneath the surface of the streets.
The ISA’s purpose is to raise funds in order to undertake the mass deployment of solar technology required to generate as much as 1TW (1,000GW) of electricity.
Starting in 2020, all new homes in California will be required to incorporate advanced efficiency measures and rooftop solar — in an historic development for clean energy in the state.
