ACCIONA, a Spanish infrastructure, renewable energy and water group, has designed the first transoceanic regatta boat with power generation systems based entirely on renewable sources, the ACCIONA 100% EcoPowered. The boat has been officially presented in Barcelona by the President of ACCIONA, José Manuel Entrecanales, in the framework of the Global Clean Energy Conference 2011,

Sometimes it’s hard to find time to exercise due to housework, but that’s over;). Students from  Dalian Nationalities University  in China have designed a prototype stationary bike that will allow you to do two things at the same time: Do your laundry and get in shape.

The research institute ZSW announced that German renewables surpassed coal for the first time in its history. Thanks to the increase in photovoltaic installations and the closures of plants and coal mines,  renewable energy beat coal.

Luckily, science and technology are advancing by leaps and bounds towards a future in which all energy is generated from renewable sources. Although this is a long-term goal, new eco-inventions are currently emerging that allow us to make this a cleaner planet; elements of our daily life that work thanks to elements of nature. One

Nuclear fusion is one of the great hopes for the energy of the future: clean and inexhaustible. Why is it not applied? Because, nobody has managed to translate the expectation into reality. Still. And it is that a private American company, Tri Alpha Energy, might not be so far from launching a fusion reactor in

Australia is taking steps that translate into reality the forecasts, which suggest that in just one decade the demand for electricity from the grid will fall to practically zero. The muscle of solar energy explains this and, proof of it, the double record registered in the state of South Australia, where on Sunday, September 18,

Promote the growth of photovoltaic technology in all developing countries, located between the Tropic of Cancer and Capricorn. This is the ambitious goal set by the

Free rooftop solar panels will be offered for up to 3,000 low-income households in New South Wales, Australia. The plan, funded by the Australian government, will reduce electricity bills by more than $300 a year, according to the Department of Environment and Energy. The test facility, worth approximately $4,000 each, will be available in five

For the second year in a row, in the first and second quarters of 2019, renewable sources generated more electricity than all fossil fuels combined. Sources of renewable energy outweigh again to fossil fuels in Europe. In fact, in the first six months of the year, European electricity production was greener than fossil, although the

The Pavegen company  has  been developing since 2009 a tile model that generates clean energy every time we step on it. A revolutionary concept whose massive use could give a boost to the local generation of electricity from renewable sources. Pavegen tiles are made from recycled materials and are 80% recyclable, waterproof. They can withstand
