Elected officials and energy company executives gathered last week in rural Oregon to mark the completion of Wheatridge Renewable Energy Facility, a project that combines a wind farm, solar array and battery storage. This is the fourth and the largest project in the United States to combine those th…
The tiny bits of plastic that wear off bottles, plastic bags, automotive parts and even cosmetics get into the soil and the water supply. They disrupt chemical cycles, throw off ecosystem health and pollute environments both marine and terrestrial. They eventually also get into the air, where they c…

Although nanotechnology and materials science are complicated topics for most of us, the research in these fields is of great importance to almost everyone. Your digital gadgets, for example, are completely dependent on it.
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has awarded the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics to Alain Aspect, John Clauser, and Anton Zeilinger “for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science.”

There are a lot of misconceptions surrounding solar energy these days. In this article, EcoWatch debunks the top eight myths associated with solar panels.
PhD candidate Zack Bruce Hall II is one of 44 awardees of the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science Graduate Student Research Program, which will allow him research opportunities at the DOE Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
John F. Clauser and the late Stuart Freedman carried out the first experiment to show the ‘weirdness’ of quantum physics.
2D electrode for ultra-thin semiconductors; fast thin-film barium titanate; washable energy-harvesting fabric.
Three Princeton professors have received prestigious awards from the National Institutes of Health.
Multiple factors can affect the lifespans of residential battery energy storage systems.
“Their results have cleared the way for new technology based upon quantum information,” the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said of the laureates -- Aspect, who is French, Clauser, an American and Zeilinger, an Austrian. The scientists all conducted experiments into quantum entanglement, where tw…
Hurricane Ian’s catastrophic winds and flooding are likely to bring long-lasting power outages to large parts of Florida. The storm is the latest in a line of hurricanes and extreme heat and cold events that have knocked out power to millions of Americans in recent years for days at a time.
A renewable-energy plant in Oregon that combines solar power, wind power and huge batteries to store the energy generated there was commissioned last week as the first utility-scale plant of its kind in North America.
IARPA aims to build a fundamentally new understanding of low-dose radiation’s physical impacts through advances in artificial intelligence.
Scientists largely agree climate change makes some elements of hurricanes worse, but they’re less confident about others: A Dispatch Explainer.
In 70% of outage events, most homes with a 30-kWh storage system would have been able to maintain critical loads, researchers said.
