As rooftop solar panels become increasingly popular, concerns about glare from those panels are coming up more often. Most days, the sun shines as usual. But every now and then, [...]

Every year, there is a date that reveals a lot about us and the way we live. It’s called Earth Overshoot Day, the moment when we have used up all [...]

Radio telescopes are very important tools in modern astronomy, enabling scientists to explore the universe through radio waves emitted by astronomical bodies [1]. Radio telescopes, unlike optical telescopes that observe [...]

When a turbine spins, it disrupts the flow of wind and creates swirling trails of disturbed air called wakes [1]. This means that it leaves slower but more turbulent air [...]

The transition to renewable energy is essential for reducing carbon emissions and achieving sustainability. The inherent variability of renewable power sources such as the sun and wind, however, challenges power [...]

The placement of wind turbines within a wind farm is crucial for maximising energy output while reducing wake effects (a reduction in wind speed due to energy being extracted by [...]

Fractal solar cells combine the principles of fractal geometry with photovoltaic technology, creating exciting possibilities for boosting energy efficiency through mathematically aesthetic designs. These panels are more efficient at capturing [...]

When we think about the weather, we usually picture thunderstorms, snowy landscapes, or a sunny day at the beach. But there’s another kind of weather that affects us all, even [...]

Humanity has come very far in its efforts for renewable energy in recent years. From using wind turbines to harness the power of the breeze, to angling solar panels to [...]

Solar energy, which is widely abundant and renewable, has become a hopeful substitute for fossil fuels in meeting the world’s energy demands. Harnessing solar power efficiently is limited by issues [...]
