A new study in Global Biogeochemical Cycles shows per-area greenhouse gas emissions from the world’s water reservoirs are around 29% higher than suggested by previous studies, but that practical measures could be taken to help reduce that impact.

As the Clean Energy Transformation Act drives Washington state toward carbon-free electricity, a new energy landscape is taking shape. 

Thermoelectric power generators that make electrical power from waste heat would be a useful tool to reduce greenhouse gas emissions if it weren’t for a most vexing problem: the need to make electrical contacts to their hot side, which is often just too hot for materials that can generate a current.

The Annual Greenhouse Gas Index is updated each spring after nearly all the air samples collected during the previous year have been obtained and analyzed.

The energy available from sunlight is 10,000 times more than what is needed to supply the world's energy demands. 

With a global impetus toward utilizing more renewable energy sources, wind presents a promising, increasingly tapped resource.

City’s Dr Martin White explores a novel organic Rankine system for converting waste heat into electricity.

Climate-related temperature rises will further increase the cooling demand of buildings. 

In a world hungry for cheaper, more efficient renewable energy, Australian researchers have served up a treat.

A global effort to reduce sulfur and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from ships has researchers from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and other Department of Energy facilities investigating the potential use of marine biofuels.
