Globally, the building industry accounts for about one-third of energy consumption and emissions. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), as of 2019, the building industry’s energy consumption reached 130 Exajoule (EJ) and has increased by 20% compared to 2010 levels. Growing ownership and use of air-conditioning and extreme weather c...

Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) integrates photovoltaics (PV) and building architecture. BIPVs serve as on-site power generators for buildings, resulting in energy costs saving and reducing the building's carbon footprint. Also, if the BIPV system interfaces with the power grid, the unused electricity may be exported to the utility for gri...

The ongoing, albeit intermittent, transition to renewable energy sources has made it apparent that new methods of electric energy storage are required to balance energy supply and demand. The widespread adoption of electric vehicles spurs the need for more cost-effective energy storage solutions. At the same time, rising climate change awareness pu...

Energy generation is the most crucial building block of a country’s economic development and a key determinant of its progress. Population growth requires a higher degree of economic development, which directly requires more energy to be generated. To meet the rising energy demands, the energy sector is under pressure to expand rapidly as countri...

In 1921, geophysical acquisition technology which involves the generation and acquisition of seismic data to image sub-surface geology revolutionized earth science and resource exploration. Seismic technologies have come a long way since then; they now have the ability to illuminate and image complex subsurface targets at lower acquisition costs. O...

Mitigating greenhouse gases is the way ahead to avert catastrophes arising from climate change. Permanently removing greenhouse gas emissions from the atmosphere is a huge and urgent task. Emission reduction technologies are necessary to achieve deep decarbonization in emission-intensive industries and net-zero emissions in the long term. Industry ...

The flow battery energy storage solution comprises 2 electrolytes, which differs from the traditional battery design, where energy is stored as the electrode material. These electrocytes’ electrochemical nature drives the ion transfer and enables the storage and discharge of energy. A flow battery can be used as a fuel cell and rechargeable bat...

This research study, Disruptive Electrolyzer Technologies Enabling Green Hydrogen Production, focuses on the latest achievements in electrolyzer technologies. The study highlights the necessity for electrolysis technology and discusses the major challenges its development faces in gaining wide-scale market adoption and competitiveness. Current ...

Abstract: Transition to a carbon-neutral energy economy requires a more environmentally-friendly energy carrier. Hydrogen and its multiple end-use applications play a huge role to contribute to decarbonization of major sectors of the economy. Current power generating units cannot cater to emerging needs in reduction of greenhouses gas emissions. H...
