ZF and Levant Power Develop the World’s First Fully Active, Regenerative Suspension for Automobiles. With the energy recovery critical to the performance and range of electric vehicles this technology seems to make a lot of sense in conjunction with regenerative braking systems. Although it may not be as beneficial in on a free way in …

  Innovation in solar, wind and other renewable power is booming worldwide, especially in China, and is now eclipsing that in fossil fuels According to a recent article in USA Today: http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/10/12/solar-wind-renewable-patents-surge/2967985/ Innovation in solar, wind and other renewable power is booming worldwide, especially in China, and is now eclipsing that in fossil fuels — an …

    Coal as a fuel source to generate electricity is on the decline and will become extinct.   With the impact of renewable energy on power generation, along with the promise of clean nuclear, smart grids, and other energy innovation, coal appears to be on the way out. The evidence is mounting. As  reported …

  The 2014 Cold Fusion/Lattice-Assisted Nuclear Reactions Colloquium was held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from March 21-23, appropriately on the 25th anniversary of the cold fusion announcement by Pons and Fleischmann. Mitchell Swartz, Gayle Verner and their team at JET Energy  organized a  conference, filled with excellent presentations. Nearly 100 people were in attendance. The three-day meeting featured 28 …

China is surging ahead with the development of Thorium as a clean energy source. The following video was posted last year by Motherboard Video. From their site it was quoted : While the US has only paid lip service to thorium in recent decades, China is joining the likes ofIndia, Japan, and Norway in a …

  MIT researchers find a way to boost lithium-air battery performance, with the help of modified viruses. Lithium-air batteries have become a hot research area in recent years: They hold the promise of drastically increasing power per battery weight, . But bringing that promise to reality has faced a number of challenges, including the need …

  This is an ingenious way to harvest high volume low grade heat from the environment . Extracting 3 degrees Celsius form a water source can be magnified to much higher and useful temperatures for heating and hot water supply.   The most recent example of a practical application of this technology comes out of …

    Liquid Robotics won this years Gold Medal at the Edison Awards. It was for innovation in Power Generation and Utilization. They also been officially awarded the Guinness World Record for the longest journey of an unmanned autonomous surface vehicle. This is a fine example of engineering and combining systems into autonomous energy management systems harnessing …

  Whilst we look on with some amusement to nonsensical SHT Hydrogen claims, the real scientists have taken a major step forward in the production of hydrogen from water which will assist in the quest towards cheap, clean and renewable energy. Chemists from the University of Glasgow report in a new paper in Science today  on …

Information on Indigo-go overunity device claims should be questioned. There is no room for complacency as the credibility of Overunity, and Breakthrough Energy Research is on the line. On the positive side people get to judge with their own wallets. However it is paramount that the correct and most up to date information is provided. …

    Reducing  the costs of solar energy is no longer about reducing the cost of the cells , but reducing the soft costs surrounding their installation. The key to this is to improve the efficiency of the cell while maintaining low manufacturing costs.   Cells are now being manufactured for 50 cents per watt, a ten fold reduction …

  This research leaves a lot of new questions unanswered in regards to the behavior of magnetism. “Just because an effect is easy to generate doesn’t mean that it’s going to be easy to understand,” said Jim Martin from Sandia National Laboratories   Sandia National Laboratories researchers Jim Martin and Kyle Solis have discovered how to harness …

Venture capitalist John Doerr ( Kleiner Perkins) was quoted recently  “that the real energy game changer  would be tripling battery life, rather than the incremental increases we’ve seen over the past several years. He also stated  that he has invested in a start-up that has pulled off the feat in a lab, but declined to identify it. …

Part of the reason we are here at Revolution-Green is to give not only the latest developments in the alternative energy sector but also give some exposure to the army of smaller and sometimes hobbyist researchers.  I may not agree with their claims or theories but I have nothing but admiration for their work and dedication. In …

  I like to thank TIP (one of our commentators) for reminding us of this technology. We covered it here briefly (breakthroughenergynews.com) last year.. One of the most common questions raised from the BlackLight Power press release we published last week was how it is impossible to put a PV cell under so much intense …

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) Global energy demand will dramatically increase over the next 20 years, but turmoil in many key producing regions and the difficulties in formulating the right energy policies mean the world may not be able to respond with adequate supply and meet its climate change goals. To most of …

I came across this article which profiles the latest Rossi Backer. I was pleasantly surprised by his motivation, expectation and optimism. “I don’t care who gets there first, how it happens,” he says. “I just want to see it happen.” Although many of us have been rather critical of Rossi, his antics and testing methodology. I …

  ” It’s not up to us to prove the technology works, we gave it away, open sourced it, and it’s up to the engineers and the people to make it work.” Our good friends from GBEM attended a meeting with HopeGirl The following was an update from there conversation. My only correction was they thought …

  In the Face of Fukushima a  Japanese law passed after the nuclear disaster  to encourage alternative energy.It requires utilities to buy any power a home or business generates beyond its own needs. Utilities must pay around 35 cents a kilowatt hour for solar power, three times their generating cost with natural gas. Japan installed nearly …
