Natel Energy is in the process of setting up hydropower turbines with turbines that are fish-safe and comes with other features replicating the natural conditions of rivers.
Natel Energy was founded by Abe Schneider and Gia Schneider who were both alumni of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Growing up in a rural area of Texas, Abe and Gia always had something to do on their farm. However, on Saturdays at 2 in the afternoon, their family would always go to their local creek to fish, play on rope swings, and …

A new and innovative design for the storage of solid-state hydrogen offers the potential to significantly reduce charging times.
A team of researchers from the Queensland University of Technology and the University of Technology in Sydney has developed a brand new method to upgrade the charging times of solid-state hydrogen fuel cells.
Hydrogen is gaining popularity in terms of being an efficient method of storing green energy from renewable sources such as solar and wind. The most common …
A Newly-Developed Method Improves the Output of Wind Energy Farms Without Any New Equipment
2 min read
Engineers can help boost power output among existing wind power plants by modeling the current conditions of the entire farm instead of the individual wind turbines.
Generally, wind turbines are controlled individually as stand-alone units. The wind power industry produces over 5 percent of worldwide electricity. Large wind farms come with dozens to hundreds of wind turbines.

A simple yet highly functional nanoparticle ink could potentially help in the large-scale printing of new-generation perovskite solar cells and help make it become the dominating system in commercial photovoltaics.
The ink is produced from tin oxide and is made with a single primary step at a significantly low temperature through the use of microwave technology. In addition, the entire creation process of this ink requires no further …
A group of researchers has created a fuel creation system that utilizes water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide to produce jet fuel. They have carried out the production system in the field as well as the design. This system was designed with the aim of fostering efforts of making the aviation industry carbon-neutral.
Becoming carbon-neutral is of great importance in the fight against global climate change. The aviation sector alone is …
