Researchers pointed out that the system consists of a motor-generator unit, hoisting ropes, transmission gears, and a heavy ...

The quest for unlimited and clean energy has been a long one, with over fifty-plus years in the endeavor to find new ways to combat climate change while also providing better energy solutions. One ...

As the global transition toward renewable energy accelerates, storing electricity generated by intermittent sources, such as solar and wind, becomes more urgent. Power production often plunges when ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Towering (some might say, decadent) superstructures continue to ...

Researchers in Canada have proposed using gravity-based energy storage in high-rise buildings, in combination with photovoltaic facades, small wind turbines, and lithium-ion batteries. Their modeling ...

Gravity energy storage, whereby engineers harness the energy in gravitational forces by connecting the momentum generated to the electric grid, is a relatively new technology that could serve to ...

Imagine relying on wind to power your computer or sunlight to keep your hospital running at night instead of a battery system… This is the kind of challenge the world faces today. The main question we ...

I'll tell anyone who will listen that the Lucid Air is, in my humble estimation, pretty much the best electric vehicle you can buy in America today. The only problem is that it's an expensive electric ...

Once a mine has been exhausted of its ore, there's really no use for it anymore – it just becomes an abandoned hole in the ground. According to a new study, however, the shafts of such mines could ...

The Lucid Gravity Grand Touring is EPA-rated at 450 miles of range. Here's why it fell short in a 70 mph highway drive down to 1%.
