Optical circuits use light instead of electricity, making them faster and more energy-efficient than electrical systems. Scientists have developed a first building block for photonic 'transistors' ...

The ever-increasing use of wireless devices, such as mobile phones, computing, and remote sensing systems, have led to increased demand and dependence on the use of batteries. Currently, most ...

As the first energy circuit rider, Melissa Elander helped transform Stratford with a wide range of energy-efficient and renewable energy projects. (Courtesy photo) When she began her new job in 2019, ...

The global demand for green energy sources is driving strong market growth for solar power systems. Although a great deal of development work is still focused on making PV (photovoltaic) energy ...

Data centers are processing data and dispensing the results at astonishing rates and such robust systems require a significant amount of energy -- so much energy, in fact, that information ...

Electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs), better known as ultracapacitors or supercapacitors, are now a primary energy storage option for design engineers. During the past 10 years, we have seen the ...
