"For storm intensity forecasts in particular, NOAA has been developing a new system known as HAFS — the Hurricane Analysis and Forecast System — and hopes to implement it next spring. HAFS will 'provide an operational analysis and forecast out to seven days' and allow scientists 'to see multiple storms at once to understand how they interact,' NOAA says."

"But nuclear technology has been in use for decades in the United States, and it still produces nearly a fifth of US electricity with virtually no carbon emissions. Its safety track record over that period is also remarkably solid."

"EverestLabs also sells a service to monitor the existing robotic sorting machines in recycling plants with a team of engineers who track metrics like pick efficiency and accuracy. The engineers also provide maintenance assistance, which Ambati pitches as a way for operators to focus on maintaining pace with the materials they receive and process."

"While its technology is mainly used by construction companies in Norway for now, 7Analytics is expanding into new areas such as energy infrastructure, and is currently in talks with a handful of energy companies in the U.S."

"One established data platform is Firecast, intended primarily for government agencies. It’s an initiative managed by Conservation International that was instrumental in tracking fires in Amazonia and Indonesia in 2019. Now, a growing number of entrepreneurial startups propose using artificial intelligence and a range of sensing options that run the gamut from cameras to drones and other devices to help communications and corporations get a better handle on wildfire management."

"The project’s electrolyzer, which uses solar power to split water, has now produced its first full kilogram of renewable hydrogen – the first ever produced by SoCalGas — which is intended to provide power when solar isn’t available. One kilogram of hydrogen, roughly equivalent to a gallon of gasoline, emits only water as a byproduct."
