The search is for new ways to harness renewable resources to supply our rising energy needs. The key question, however, is why ocean and sea waves haven't been used in carbon emission reduction ...

BOULDER, Colo. — Imagine a future where simply driving along a highway or even walking down a sidewalk could produce electricity to power street lights or traffic signals. That future is now for ...

What if a single idea, once dismissed as impossible, could spark innovations that save millions of dollars and transform energy efficiency? The concept of a “free energy generator” has long been the ...

Wave power—energy harvested from ocean currents—is likely to be the next big thing in renewable energy generation, so researchers are spending quite a bit of time on new technologies to take advantage ...

You know the drill when it comes to powering up gadgets: You use up electricity, it leads to your hard-earned cash ending up in the pocket of energy companies, and the environment gets hurt. The ...

July 6, 2007 Researchers at the University of Southampton have developed a kinetic energy generator which derives electrical energy from the vibrations and movements that occur within its environment.

Though research on moisture-electric generators, which create energy from ambient humidity, exists, the tech isn't ready for ...

The nPower PEG is exactly the kind of thing that would have airport security asking you some rather awkward questions, and perhaps also earn you some childish snickers. The rather utilitarian phallus ...
