Thermophotovoltaics developed at U-M can recover significantly more energy stored in heat batteries.

Boilers are a major source of greenhouse gas emissions.

More boiling means faster cooling, and when it comes to cooling equipment like nuclear reactors, every degree counts.

A low-cost, tin-based catalyst can selectively convert carbon dioxide to three widely produced chemicals — ethanol, acetic acid and formic acid.

Copper cannot be mined quickly enough to keep up with current U.S. policy guidelines to transition the country’s electricity and vehicle infrastructure to renewable energy, according to a University of Michigan study.

Researchers at Kyushu University have published a comprehensive analysis on the carbon footprint of constructing a wooden house in Japan.

After spinning for under two years, a wind farm can offset the carbon emissions generated across its entire 30-year lifespan, when compared to thermal power plants.

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory are developing battery technologies to fight climate change in two ways, by expanding the use of renewable energy and capturing airborne carbon dioxide.

Instead of burning coal or oil to produce cement or steel, in the future solar energy could be used for this purpose.

Most batteries used in technology like smart watches and electric cars are made with lithium that travels across the world before even getting to manufacturers.
