Did you know that most electric power plants, including wind mills, hydro dams and nuclear stations produce electricity the ...

Water drops produce electricity when dripped through a small tube. That power might be harnessed as renewable energy in rainy places.

There are many different kinds of renewable sources and they generate electricity in different ways. Some renewables - such as wind, waves, and solar - are not always available. Wind farms cannot ...

Some turbines are huge and have many blades that are pushed round by hot air or steam. (Cultura Creative RF / Alamy Stock Photo) Most of the ways we generate electricity involve kinetic energy.

Water falls on Earth every day as rain, and now scientists seem to have found a way of using it to create renewable electricity ...

A team led by Rice University bioscientist Caroline Ajo-Franklin has discovered how certain bacteria breathe by generating ...

For example, many ways that we generate electricity use heat from burning or nuclear decay to generate steam which turns a generator. Thermocouples generate electricity directly from heat ...

"The reality on the ground is not one of a return to fossil fuels in the U.S., it's the continued growth of solar and wind power that will be the dominant driver of electricity generation growth ...

A team led by Rice University bioscientist Caroline Ajo-Franklin has discovered how certain bacteria breathe by generating ...

A team has discovered how certain bacteria breathe by generating electricity, using a natural process that pushes electrons into their surroundings instead of breathing on oxygen. The findings could ...

For the first time, renewable energy plus nuclear — sources that don't directly emit greenhouse gases — generate more than 40 per cent of global demand for electricity, says a new report ...

Researchers including Caroline Ajo-Franklin and Biki Bapi Kundu have discovered how certain bacteria breathe by generating electricity ... have evolved other ways to respire in oxygen-deprived ...
