AI-created materials could reduce your energy bill

July 14, 2025 by Geordie Torr

Researchers from the University of Texas at Austin, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the National University of Singapore and Umea University in Sweden have used machine learning and artificial intelligence to develop new materials known as thermal meta-emitters that could, among other things, keep houses cooler and reduce energy bills. The researchers developed more than … [Read more...] about AI-created materials could reduce your energy bill

New fuel cell can stabilise power grid by making and storing energy

July 9, 2025 by Geordie Torr

A team of engineers at West Virginia University (WVU) has designed and successfully tested a fuel cell that can switch between storing or making electricity and also generate hydrogen from water. Unlike similar technologies, the fuel cell can withstand the heat and steam generated when running at an industrial scale for long periods at high power. Additionally, it addresses the … [Read more...] about New fuel cell can stabilise power grid by making and storing energy

Hosted at Sheffield Hallam University, this highly regarded annual challenge involved more than 13,000 students from universities … [Read more...] about Engineering student team wins People’s Prize in global design competition

Novel green hydrogen production pilot launched in Australia

June 27, 2025 by Geordie Torr

A first in green hydrogen reactor technology has been launched at the University of Adelaide’s Roseworthy campus by Sparc Hydrogen, a start-up company founded to translate research conducted by Professor Greg Metha. The company is a joint venture between metals company Fortescue, Sparc Technologies and the University of Adelaide. The Sparc Hydrogen Advanced Research Pilot … [Read more...] about Novel green hydrogen production pilot launched in Australia

AI can create climate-friendly cement recipes in seconds

June 20, 2025 by Geordie Torr

Researchers in Switzerland have found a way to dramatically cut cement’s carbon footprint by redesigning its recipe. Their system simulates thousands of ingredient combinations, pinpointing those that keep cement strong while emitting far less carbon dioxide in seconds. The cement industry produces around eight percent of global CO2 emissions – more than the entire aviation … [Read more...] about AI can create climate-friendly cement recipes in seconds
