A Japanese yacht can turn wind and seawater into green hydrogen while sailing, showing a remarkable glimpse of cleaner shipping. Japanese shipping company Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) tested its demonstration yacht, Winz Maru, as part of the Wind Hunter project. While sailing in strong winds, the yacht uses wind to move through the water while […]
The holy grail of clean energy is no longer science fiction. Germany is officially leading a global race to commercialize nuclear fusion, with ambitious goals to connect next-generation reactors to the electricity grid much sooner than anyone anticipated. Historically, traditional nuclear power plants relied on nuclear fission—the process of splitting heavy atoms, which carries the […]
Floating wind turbines are opening vast new stretches of ocean to clean energy, reaching powerful winds that fixed turbines cannot. Unlike traditional offshore turbines that are fixed directly to the seabed, floating turbines sit on buoyant platforms anchored by mooring lines. This allows wind farms to operate in much deeper waters, where conventional foundations become […]
