Thanks to the sacred geometrical patterns of the sunflower, engineers at the 20 Megawatt Gemasolar concentrated solar power (CSP) plant near Seville, Spain have increased the efficiency of their operation and reached more of solar power’s energy-producing potential. How Does the ‘Gemasolar’ Solar Power Plant Work? Torresol Energy operates a number of concentrated solar power…
Read MoreThe Minesto Underwater Tidal Energy Harvesting Kite
The Minesto tidal energy harvesting kite is a revolutionary new way of harvesting energy from ocean tides. According to Minesto, the Swedish tidal energy company behind the innovation, the kite, called ‘deep green,’ can produce more energy from lower velocity currents than almost any existing tidal technologies. Water contains 800-times the energy of air while…
Read MoreThorium Superfuel: A Clean, Safe, and Abundant Energy Source?
Thorium is a weakly radioactive metallic element that’s number 90 on the periodic table. It is silver in color but tarnishes black when oxidized, forming thorium dioxide. Thorium is hard yet malleable and has a high melting point. While uranium nuclear reactors, like the ones commonly used today, utilize uranium directly, thorium nuclear reactors derive…
