Carbon dioxide photocatalysis, a new future with three fundamental questions, how do we optimize photonic efficiency, how should we scale, and what should we make?

How Should We Ask Questions about the Social Status of Climate Change Knowledge?
Despite decades of producing climate change knowledge and engaging in science communication and policy advising, there is still no discernible structural shift from a high‐ to a low‐ or even zero‐carbon‐emissions development pathway.
Power-to-Heat-to-Power
Solar researchers have investigated whether it is economically viable for a solar thermal power plant to convert excess photovoltaic and wind power into heat and store it.
Cold Plasma To Clean Up Our Water
A team of Canadian researchers has shown that direct contact between an AP “cold” oxidizing plasma source and water that contains very high concentrations of cyanobacteria and green algae, along with associated BMAA toxin, could be quite rapidly (in minutes) decontaminated with modest energy input.
Clay-based and Cement-free Concrete
The ETH spin-off Oxara, is developing a cement-free concrete made from clay-based excavation material to build affordable, sustainable houses.
Decentralized Renewable Energy Systems: A Status-Quo Analysis
Decentralized renewable energy systems are promising options to cope with the challenge of balancing local production and energy consumption.
Industrial Carbon Dioxide Photocatalysis
Researchers at the University of Toronto discuss the origins and advances of carbon dioxide photocatalysis.
Next Generation Sun Protectors
Protection against UV radiation during extreme summers is indispensable.
Solution to Weather-Induced Erosion
With artificial intelligence and three-dimensional printing, VTT has found a solution to the erosion of materials used in wind turbine blades caused by weather conditions.
A Realistic Look at Rechargeable Batteries
A comprehensive study aims to make the assessment of rechargeable battery performance more transparent.
