Lower your carbon footprint while saving money! Cut you home energy bills!

Alternative maritime power for docked container vessels has made steady progress throughout the decade. But isn't it time more ports and shipping lines adopted the technology? asks Alex Hawkes. As the climate talks in Copenhagen draw to a close and the International Maritime Organization (IMO) comes under increasing pressure to address the shipping industry's carbon emissions, alternative maritime power (AMP) is looking an increasingly obvious solution.

Supplying power to offshore platforms from land-based plants could have a major impact on the industry's carbon emissions. Norway is the world leader in the laying of subsea cables to power offshore facilities, but a recent disagreement over the electrification of the Utsira High region has sparked a new debate over how and where to make use of this promising technology.

Despite being touted as the best way to clean up dirty fossil fuels, commercial deployment of carbon capture storage (CCS) in the power industry has been near non-existent. Now, for the first time ever, a coal-fired power plant is being retrofitted with CCS.

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.

India's largest power utility NTPC has plans to use biomass to co-fire all its coal-based power plants. The decision is a bold move that will reduce the company's overall carbon emissions, but what challenges might it face during implementation and how will the change impact India's overall energy mix?

Researchers from a University of California-led study used detailed data sets of existing fossil-fuel burning infrastructures, such as power plants and boilers, to estimate how much carbon dioxide they would emit before they are currently expected to retire.

In recent years, there has been a growing awareness of the impact that human activities have on the environment. As such, individuals and businesses alike are making efforts to adopt eco-friendly practices to reduce their carbon footprint. One way that restaurants can contribute to this cause is by using bagasse packaging.
