Cleantechnica reports that the UK is experimenting with smart fridges (fridges that adjust their power consumption dynamically based on grid load) - UK Giving Away "Intelligent Fridges". Live in the UK? You may be the lucky recipient of a free "Intelligent" refrigerator. 3,000 fridges that adapt power usage based on the demands of the electrical grid will be given away by the government next year. According to a report from the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change, the dynamic demand fridges could potentially save 2 million tons of carbon each year and £222m. In addition to saving energy, the dynamic demand fridges will also help ease the transition to intermittently produced renewable energy by reducing the minimum amount of power necessary to keep the electrical grid stable- in other words, the fridges limit the base amount of fossil fuels used in energy creation.

the question which always haunt an intelligent student with badluck.

The article "Renewable energy potential" (Work&Money, Editor's Choice, June 7) provided interesting and useful information. Now it is time to begin to use more renewable energy in North Carolina. One of our electric utility companies should develop a pilot project in one of the high-wind areas off the North Carolina coast. This energy could be used to provide some power to Elizabeth City, Manteo or any other city located on the northern part of our coast. Our electric utility companies have many intelligent engineers who could use new technology to build wind turbines that can withstand strong storms. If other states in the Northeast can build wind farms off their coasts, then North Carolina can surely do the same.

We have all heard the stories and seen the reports on the news (or watched the video on YouTube), someone leaves a battery in the charger for too long, and it overheats and then bursts into flames.

The Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Ltd. (ONGC) is an integrated energy company engaged in the Exploration and Production (E&P) of crude oil and natural gas, and the refining, transportation and marketing of petroleum products, globally. The company is headquartered in Dehradun, in India, and has overseas operations in Vietnam, Russia, Myanmar, Syria, Qatar, Egypt, Cuba, Brazil, Nigeria, Columbia, Sudan, Iraq, Iran and Libya.

ABOUT THE PANEL DISCUSSION: Companies sometimes regard sustainability as "metaphoric low-hanging fruit," says moderator Peter Senge, and reach for a few easy targets to achieve cosmetic improvements. His three panelists describe how their corporations are attempting to embrace sustainability as more than just another high-profile, low-impact initiative that "goes right into an overloaded bucket."

We can't afford to think of business as the enemy. Businesses in many cases are realizing the importance of sustainability more quickly than the public sector which too often defines its view by outdated political philosophies. This video provides a great deal to think about.

Are you really fed up of always being fooled by your friends and are you looking for a chance to make a fool of them.......then this article belongs to you.......this article explains the one of the most simple way to fool others.

Instead of having to recharge your battery for your electric vehicle (EV) you would simply drive to the nearest battery switching spot and the battery would be changed while you wait. This is a simple process that does not take longer than ten minutes.

Innovations in beacon technology are making the UK retail sector more intelligent. Beacons are low-energy Bluetooth devices that push location messages to smartphones. While the technology is still quite new today, it's set to become one of the key enablers to connect the Internet of Things (IoT).

Researchers from the University of Surrey have teamed up with US artificial intelligence company Dabus to file patents in an AI system's name, but the idea of recognising AI as an inventor has received mixed response from the industry.
