Alternative Power: Hydroelectric Potential
Image by Ontario Power Generation When it comes to large-scale alternative power, hydroelectric plants are currently the most common – supplying more than 80% of the word’s renewable energy. While hydro power is much cleaner and more cost-efficient than the generation of electricity using fossil fuels, there are a number of disadvantages including the threat of dam failures, disturbance to the natural environment, and some greenhouse gas emissions. Small hydroelectric power systems, ho
‘Artificial leaf’ that may help generate clean power on the anvil
Researchers at Imperial College London are trying to imitate the process of photosynthesis by making an ‘artificial leaf’ to produce clean power. Photosynthesis, the process where plants use sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into sugar, is the most effective solar energy conversion process on Earth. And researchers believe that mimicking parts of it could be [...]‘’ Related posts: Scientists achieve first step in converting solar energy using ‘artificial leaf’ Ancient bacteria
