A strip of track in the Swiss Jura carries 48 solar panels laid flat between the rails and thousands of trains have run over them, but the array covers only 330 feet of a national network

16+ hour, 45+ min ago   (812+ words) A single track railway in the western Swiss mountains, pasture on both sides, a station a short walk away. Between the rails, where there is normally gravel and nothing else, a run of dark blue panels lies flat. They sit…...

At 97 percent power a standby service water pump tripped the instant its own diesel generator started at a Mississippi reactor, where that single trip left the emergency core spray system inoperable

20+ hour, 45+ min ago   (742+ words) A plant room under fluorescent light, concrete floor, a pump the size of a small car sitting on a pad. It has not run in weeks. That is the point of it. On a winter evening a crew starts a…...

All 64 machines at a 960 megawatt offshore wind farm in the German North Sea were set without any state subsidy behind them, but a rotor blade let go three weeks before the last one went up

1+ day, 16+ hour ago   (769+ words) Open water about 53 miles northwest of the nearest German island, and nothing in any direction but towers. Sixty four of them now, the last one bolted up in the middle of August. Each carries a rotor 774 feet across, which sweeps…...

Panels stretch across 110 feet of open canal in California's Central Valley and the water beneath runs cooler, but the evaporation number that would justify a solar canal statewide has not been published

3+ day, 16+ hour ago   (780+ words) A canal runs through farmland east of the valley floor, carrying water to almond groves and tomato fields. For most of its length it lies open to the sky. Over two short stretches it does not. Steel trusses cross the…...

A solar cell bent 5,000 times around a curve tighter than a thumb kept 91 percent of what it started with, while the flexible tandem inside it reached 33.6 percent certified efficiency on a silicon layer thin enough to roll

4+ day, 18+ hour ago   (829+ words) The jig takes both ends of the strip, folds it toward itself, holds it, and lets go. Then it does it again. It ran that way for days, and the film in the clamps looks like nothing at all. Not…...

Stanford chemists turned ordinary rocks into carbon-trapping materials that work thousands of times faster than nature by borrowing a trick from centuries-old cement-making and the results could reshape how humanity fights climate change

4+ day, 20+ hour ago   (463+ words) Pulling billions of tons of CO2 out of the atmosphere is one of the hardest things humanity has ever attempted. The technologies built for it — giant fan systems, experimental ocean interventions — are expensive, energy-intensive, and still nowhere near the scale the…...

Nearly 10 million pounds of drilling rig left a frozen gravel road 6 miles from an Alaska village and went over onto the tundra, but only 2 of the 8 people hurt that afternoon were working on the machine

4+ day, 20+ hour ago   (818+ words) Something that heavy does not tip. It leans, then it settles, then it keeps settling for days afterward while everybody stands back and watches it. That is the part of this story worth understanding. The machine came off a road…...
