"Mayer said the advantage ammonia offers over hydrogen is that it is a liquid at moderately low temperatures and can be stored as liquid under relatively low pressure, similar to how liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is stored. Concerning how the ammonia is used, Mayer said there are two possible ways: ammonia can be burned directly or it can be 'cracked,' that is, decomposed over a catalyst, back to hydrogen."

How a breakthrough in geothermal could change our energy grid
"If Altarock is going to reach those super hot temperatures beyond Newberry, they’re going to need to drill deeper. And that’s really hard to do with conventional drills. Instead, they’re hoping to use another type of new technology that sounds like science fiction: A heat ray to melt rocks. It’s called a millimeter wave — it’s kind of like a laser, in a different part of the spectrum."
Putin hates fracking. How much did he support US and EU fracking foes?
"If Putin is a ruthless operator who expertly infiltrates U.S. politics with disinformation and money, which is what we have been told for six years now, and given that he stands to lose from robust fracking or other oil and gas exploration in the U.S. and Europe, then we have to assume that he is funding anti-fracking and anti-drilling messages in the U.S. and Europe."

The 203 ft wind turbine blade GE built is the world’s largest
"The 203 foot (62 m) blade uses thermoplastic resin from Arkema and glass fabrics, from Owens Corning, partner companies in the ZEBRA project. By combining the two, the project claims to achieve the performance levels of a regular wind turbine with the added benefit of being recycled at the end of its lifetime."
