https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTBhMNVtmrw As the world moves toward carbon-neutral energy, hydrogen is emerging as a solid solution in the alternative energy landscape. Hydrogen fuel cells are at the center of this transformation, with Bloom Energy’s solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology guiding the way. In a recent podcast episode of Engineering.com’s “The Primary Loop,”...
The vast majority of new renewable capacity will come from solar installations both big and small. Between now and 2030, IEA projects the world will build 2.5 terawatts of utility-scale solar and nearly 1.7 terawatts of distributed solar. For comparison, just 745 gigawatts of large-scale solar and 556 gigawatts of small-scale solar were built between 2017 and 2023. If solar grows at this rate, it...
NOVAdev Inc., specializing in hydrogen transportation and storage technologies, aims to construct a large hydrogen test facility in California’s northern high desert area, Los Angeles.

The report also found that some utilities are reversing course on coal retirements. Last year, 35 percent of the coal-fired power plants tracked by the report were set to close by 2030. This year, that number fell to 30 percent. Only 20 of the utilities plan to be entirely coal-free by 2030, a key milestone on the path to forestalling the most damaging impacts of climate change. The consistent...
