Solar-Powered Tech Turns Seawater Into Hydrogen Fuel And Drinking Water

ITHICA, NY - A Cornell University-led research team has developed a way to generate green hydrogen through solar-powered electrolysis of seawater. As an added bonus, it also produces potable water. A small hybrid solar distillation-water electrolysis device is key to the process, helping to produce 200 milliliters of hydrogen per hour with 12.6% energy efficiency, according

Superhot Rock Energy Could Provide Enough Power To Fuel the U.S. Thousands of Times Over

NEW YORK - For decades, geothermal energy has been the shy cousin of the renewable energy family. While solar and wind power scaled up dramatically, geothermal has remained niche, delivering only a fraction of the world’s electricity. Its Achilles’ heel has always been geography — those pockets of underground heat are mostly found near volcanic
