Floating Solar Panels Turn Old Industrial Sites Into Green Energy Goldmines

"Austria, home to central Europe’s biggest floatovoltaic array, has rolled out special subsidies for floating PVs and other novel projects that combine electricity generation with an ecological or agricultural aim. Scientific studies show that FPVs improve water quality by reducing algal blooms. Panels can also help save water during times of drought by reducing evaporation and decreasing sunlight penetration."

A Natural-Gas Billionaire Bets on Greener Fossil Fuel

"NET Power’s patented process consists of burning natural gas along with oxygen to create heat and a mixture of pure CO2 and water that spins a turbine and creates power. Some of the CO2 is reused in the system and the rest is sequestered underground—which means that a plant using the technology will emit virtually no CO2, according to the company."

Scientists Found the Hidden Flaw in Solar Panels—and Now They’ll Last Much Longer

"While this research will help clear one of the largest hurdles to bringing these films to a solar panel near you, scaling up production from these specialized lab devices will be a gargantuan challenge of its own. Regardless of the many years of work ahead, thankfully we now know that weakened stability among perovskites solar cells is a fixable flaw and not an immutable feature."
