The University of Missouri (MU) is pushing boundaries in betavoltaic electricity generation.

China has signalled plans to invest $16bn into its electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, a move that could stimulate massive growth in EV sales and help the country cut carbon emissions. We take a look at the project and find out what impact an EV revolution could have on the power grid.

Green DIY Energy can be defined as energy that is created using the earth's most common energy sources and converting them to electricity. In most cases, the sources of energy present on the earth are the best to be used in our lives.

With the UK going coal-free for a record-breaking 90 hours over the weekend, energy sources such as solar and onshore wind now play a key role in generating electricity. However, with the urgent need for new energy sources to replace the 60% of the electricity produced worldwide by fossil fuel combustion, it has become necessary to look further afield to alternative energy sources.
