Renewable Energy Technologies

The National Institute of Ocean Technology (NIOT) has successfully conducted trials with the Varaha-3 seabed mining machine in the Andaman Sea, reaching depths of 1,193 metres. This innovative machine collected polymetallic nodules, rich in crucial metals such as nickel, cobalt, and copper, essential for renewable energy and electric vehicle indust...

A recent study by astrophysicists suggests that technologically advanced alien civilizations could self-destruct through climate change within just 1,000 years. The researchers, inspired by human energy use patterns, found that even renewable energy sources contribute to planetary overheating due to inevitable heat loss. The second law of thermodyn...

Researchers from the University of Colorado Boulder have identified hydrogen molecules as a key factor in lithium-ion battery degradation. This discovery could lead to the development of longer-lasting batteries, which would enhance the driving range of electric vehicles and improve renewable energy storage. By addressing issues like self-discharge...

Much of the discourse around climate change tends to focus on technological "megafixes" and a renewable energy push may have, ironically, contributed to the landslides in Wayanad, author Amitav Ghosh has said.

New research released by the International Forum for Environment, Sustainability and Technology (iFOREST) sheds light on Assam's renewable energy (RE) generation potential and the imperative for policy enhancement.

A pledge to triple the world's installed renewable energy by 2030 is poised to win support from more than 110 countries at the COP28 climate summit on Saturday, with some pushing to make the deal global by the end of the U.N. conference.

UK researchers suggest the feasibility of creating affordable, lightweight space solar panels for energy generation.

On the Israel-Palestine conflict, he said such crises make the energy transition faster towards biofuel, renewables etc.

Imagine a small, resource-poor nation on the cusp of an energy transition. Leaders and citizens alike have been working tirelessly to wean the country off fossil fuels.

India, the world's fifth largest economy, can achieve energy independence through clean technology by 2047, a report of top research institute said, highlighting Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Atmanirbhar Bharat push that spans from a massive renewable capacity addition to electric mobility.

The success of the project, an IIT Madras statement said, will help India meet its climate change-related goals of generating 500 GW of electricity by 2030 through renewable energy.

The course was organized for the benefit of middle and senior-level executives from government departments, ministries, and agriculture engineers and scientists engaged in policy formulation, implementation, planning and appraisals.

The course objective of the training programme is to sensitise participants on using the engineering of renewable energies as a tool to fight back against the impact of climate change.

The agreement will give IIT Delhi students first-hand exposure to key industry trends in green energy economics, climate finance, and renewable energy.

IIT Guwahati researchers have developed an optimised control schemes for active power distribution networks as part of efforts to enable coordinated operation of photovoltaic power generation and electric vehicle charging stations. It focuses on addressing the challenges of solar energy, which is intermittent, leading to voltage fluctuation problem...
