A life cycle assessment for the deployment of a renewable electricity generation device (ORPC, Rivgen) in Alaska, USA as a case study comparison against the existing diesel electricity generation method was analysed using ReCiPe methodology . The kg CO2 eq/MWh is shown to decrease from 1345.45 ...

wind generation will grow by 12% and 14% during the next two years. EIA forecasts total US electricity generation across all fuels will fall by 2% this year and then
Microbial biophotovoltaic cells exploit the ability of cyanobacteria and microalgae to convert light energy into electrical current using water as the source of electrons. Such bioelectrochemical systems have a clear advantage over more conventional microbial fuel cells which require the input of organic ...
Where it has not been feasible to do this, Unilever has purchased Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) – openly-traded certificates linked to renewable electricity generation. Sam Kimmins, Head of RE100 at The Climate Group, said: “Congratulations to Unilever – achieving 100%...
The problems of hydrogen generation from electrolytic water splitting and directions of next-generation green hydrogen in the future are discussed and outlooked. Abstract Green hydrogen from electrolysis of water has attracted widespread attention as a renewable power source. Among several hydrogen producti...
and Oak Ridge National Lab have announced they’re evaluating the recently-closed Bull Run Fossil Plant in Oak Ridge, Tennessee as a site for a nuclear fusion reactor. One of the main advantages for siting any new generation source on top of an old one is the ability to reuse the existing...
Currently, this source of energy is considered as the most viable one for electrical generation for the next 50 – 100 years. However, all current and oncoming Generation III+ NPPs are not very competitive with modern...
impacts on annual generation are largely driven by changes in mean cooling and heating demands (which partially offset each other as discussed earlier), impacts on capacity are driven by peak demands (which could be heating or cooling demands depending on the state). It is important to note ...
