Ammonia (NH3) is among the most important chemicals produced by humans and  has a promising future in sustainable energy applications besides being used in fertilizer production. 

A new study by Oregon State University researchers found that shade provided by solar panels increased the abundance of flowers under the panels and delayed the timing of their bloom, both findings that could aid the agricultural community.

Concerns about climate change are driving a growing number of states, utilities, and corporations to set the goal of zeroing out power-sector carbon emissions.

QUT researchers have used carbon dots, created from human hair waste sourced from a Brisbane barbershop, to create a kind of “armour” to improve the performance of cutting-edge solar technology.

Imagine the process of distributing electricity to homes from the power grid is like travelers boarding a train.

As demand for low-carbon electricity rises around the world, nuclear power offers a promising solution. But how many countries are good candidates for nuclear energy development?

In Brazil, researchers are puzzling over socioeconomic and environmental indicators that do not add up.

Lakes store huge amounts of methane. In a new study, environmental scientists at the University of Basel offer suggestions for how it can be extracted and used as an energy source in the form of methanol.

India has set ambitious targets for renewable power, with plans to quintuple its current wind and solar energy capacity by 2030. 

Perhaps the best hope for slowing climate change – capturing and storing carbon dioxide emissions underground – has remained elusive due in part to uncertainty about its economic feasibility.
