Accenture Study: Selling Energy Efficiency to Consumers Isn't Going to Be Easy | Energy... - 2 views

  • The report identifies five key findings, as follows: There is a significant contradiction between consumer perceptions and their actual knowledge of energy efficiency. Consumers’ first instinct is to contact utilities/electricity providers for energy-efficiency activities, but providers still need to build trust and credibility. While prices remain a key factor to adoption, the extent of the utilities’/providers’ control over energy use has emerged as a potential barrier. Channels and contact points for utilities/electricity providers to communicate with consumers are diverse. Adoption of electricity management programs is influenced by fragmented and nontraditional consumer preferences.

    This bookmarking group aims to categorise the world's knowledge on sustainable energy. Resources that give fact-based information on the subject are welcome.

    We're interested in projects, technologies, programs and policies.

    The energy system is in transition. We look for information that pushes the boundary, i.e. new technologies, projects or policies that are the first or the biggest in the world or in a region. On the other hand, we're not looking for '13 in a dozen' type of projects.

    Thank you for your consideration.

IEEE Spectrum: Breakthrough in Capturing Lost Energy in Solar Cells - 1 views

  • Material chemists at the University of Texas at Austin and the University of Minnesota say that according to their research, the efficiency of a solar cell may potentially be increased to more than 60 percent, up from what was thought to be a limit of about 30 percent. They report their findings in today’s edition of the journal Science.

Japanese firm wants to transform the Moon into a giant solar power plant - 1 views

  • The Shimizu Corporation, a Japanese construction firm, has recently proposed a plan to harness solar energy on a larger scale than almost any previously proposed concept. Their ambitious plan involves building a belt of solar cells around the Moon’s 6,800-mile (11,000-kilometer) equator, converting the electricity to powerful microwaves and lasers to be beamed at Earth, and finally converting the beams back to electricity at terrestrial power stations. The Luna Ring concept, the company says, could meet the entire world's energy needs.

Washing Carbon Out of the Air: Scientific American - 1 views

  • Machines with filters made from sorbent materials can bind carbon dioxide, extracting it from the air. With mass production,machines might capture CO2 at $30 a ton, less than the $100 or more charged for commercial CO2 supply. With improved sorbents, 10 million machines across the planet could reduce CO2 concentration by five parts per million a year, more than the rate of global increase right now.
