"The long-term prospects for hydrogen in the United States will depend on more than how well DOE administers hydrogen hubs. Without a broader market shift toward hydrogen and long-term policies to back that shift, whatever success the agency can spur through the hub program will be muted."
"In the United States, closures of nuclear power plants in Vermont, New York and elsewhere have led to increased natural gas use and greenhouse gas emissions."
"Bedrock, a two-year-old, Brooklyn-based startup, aims to make the process up to 10 times faster with its electric, autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) that can navigate along the ocean floor in waters up to 300 meters deep. Bedrock is still in the early stages of testing this tech—it has only built one AUV so far—but it raised $8 million in a seed round last March and is hiring 'aggressively' to grow the current team of ~20 full-time employees, its CEO and co-founder, Anthony DiMare told us."
"The move toward a carbon-zero future may still not be as fast as many would like. But perhaps market forces are starting to give a stronger push in the green direction—even in the land of coal and natural gas down under."
"Peng's invention can work in two different ways. In cooling mode, the hydrogel is exposed to the open air all the time. During the night, the material collects water molecules. As the sun heats up the solar panel the next day, the molecules evaporate, taking excess heat energy with them."
"Loris says that the Biden administration isn't entirely to blame for the high energy prices but that it could help ease prices in the longer term by changing course on its anti-fossil fuel policies, pointing to the president blocking the Keystone XL Pipeline and halting new federal land leases as moves that created further uncertainty in energy markets and discouraged investment."
"For the near term, many countries are leaning even more on fossil fuels. They are in a race to lock up enough supply from non-Russian sources, including more coal, to ensure that they can heat homes, power factories and transport goods over the next few years."
"One of the few remaining snags could be a group of residents of the exclusive hamlet of Wainscott who don’t want the cable carrying power from the windmills to be buried under a street that runs to the beach. Even though digging has begun, they are still waging legal battles on several fronts that could delay construction or further complicate the project."
Sustainable tourism strategies are increasingly being implemented worldwide. These are initiatives that can affect almost every aspect of travel and tourism, as well as consumer brands.
"[T]he resolution comes as a smart, compact, one-stop-shopping declaration on why a commonsense policy on natural gas would please just about anyone (including Mother Nature) not bound to some dishonest ideology."
