Eco Innovation

The first electric boat has officially made the crossing from Europe to Africa, crewed by a Swedish team - marking the first-ever intercontinental journey made by an electric vessel.

Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers have uncovered a new class of materials, intercrystals, with unqiue electronic properties that have the potential to power future technologies.

Artificial intelligence (AI) stands as a beacon of innovation, offering transformative advances across almost every sector. But as AI becomes more powerful and more pervasive, it brings with it a growing dilemma: its hunger for energy.

With e-waste reaching crisis levels, UK-based electronics pioneer In2tec is urging policymakers to take decisive action in accelerating the transition to circular electronics.

Vianode and Fortum Battery Recycling have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate on developing a sustainable EV battery recycling value chain.

Resolve Optics reports how material inspection instrument manufacturers are recognising the benefit of integrating optimised SWIR (short wavelength infrared) lenses to enable efficient recovery of recyclable plastics from waste streams.

Electrification is the key to our future energy security. While industry recognises the need to shift from fossil fuels to renewable power sources, organisations can benefit from expert help to tackle the barriers to their own energy transition, says Giampiero Frisio, President, ABB Electrification.

Climate change has become one of the leading causes of innovation in recent years, particularly for the performance and communication of sensing devices. As days go by, society continues to see direct consequences of the ever-changing weather. Recent events like the wildfires that swept through California and affected several thousand square miles of residential and rural lands remind us of what is at stake. While many are focused on strategies t...

A new partnership between the University of Graz, Carbon Kapture, and the BioDiMoBot project is showing how nature and technology can work together to tackle two urgent global challenges: climate change and biodiversity loss.

A University of Bath academic is set to help the UK reach its clean power targets after being awarded a Research Chair position by the Royal Academy of Engineering.
