Extracting, delivering, and disposing water requires energy, and similarly, many processes for extracting and refining various fuel sources and producing electricity use water. This so-called ‘water–energy nexus’, is important to understand due to increasing energy demands and decreasing freshwater supplies in many areas. This paper performs a country-level quantitative assessment of this nexus in the [...]
Life might take a hammering on the sun’s earthly anvil, the Sahara desert, but the two most abundant resources the desert has to offer – sunlight and sand – could help solar power to “breed” and thrive there.
The Sahara Solar Breeder Project is a joint initiative by universities in Japan and Algeria that aims [...]
JOHANNESBURG – South African leading petrochemical and energy group, Sasol, has expanded its marketing offering by introducing LPgas reticulation into housing developments from bulk on site tanks as an alternative energy option to property developers.
Sasol Homegas is an ideal alternative energy source solution for property developers interested in building ‘greener’ developments where carbon footprints [...]
A new report from the Energy Biosciences Institute (EBI) in Berkeley projects that development of cost-competitive algae biofuel production will require much more long-term research, development and demonstration. In the meantime, several non-fuel applications of algae could serve to advance the nascent industry.

Study evaluates the manufacture, material use and performance of solar cell technology
Solar energy could be a central alternative to petroleum-based energy production. However, current solar-cell technology often does not produce the same energy yield and is more expensive to mass-produce. In addition, information on the total effect of solar energy production on the environment [...]
