The promised vast expansion of the UK's offshore wind resources is proving to be a powerful lure for companies not normally associated with renewables but keen to generate eco-friendly and reliable sources of revenue. Engineers, consultants and oil rig makers, from GKN to Lamprell and Singapore's Keppel, are setting up new divisions and partnerships in order to get a foothold in the market, whi
Several Asian countries in addition to China could soon challenge the United States in the race to build a renewable energy industry if Washington doesn't provide more incentives for its domestic business, venture capitalists and others told a Congressional hearing on Wednesday. The United States, once the world's leader in energy innovation, is now also "challenged and threatened" by India, So
Washington: Moses might not have parted the Red Sea, but a strong east wind that blew through the night could have pushed the waters back in the way described in biblical writings and the Quran, US researchers reported. Computer simulations, part of a larger study on how winds affect water, show wind could push water back at a point where a river bent to merge with a coastal lagoon, the tea

A United Nations panel has delayed key decisions on a scheme meant to reward projects that cut carbon emissions in developing countries, including whether to approve a modern coal plant for such incentives. The U.N.'s clean development mechanism (CDM) allows rich countries to meet caps on carbon emissions by paying for carbon cuts in the developing world, under the Kyoto Protocol. Countries
A global clamour for cuts in emissions, growing investor appetite for energy sector projects and sound government policies could help Africa make strides in green energy generation in the next few years. Some governments, like Kenya, plan to raise the amount of energy generated from renewable sources like wind and solar, to cut overreliance on expensive sources and stabilize power supplies.
Asian Development Bank (ADB) will provide its newly innovated solar- and wind-run combined power plants to Bangladesh for the country's power generation. This was disclosed by visiting ADB Vice President
Asian Development Bank (ADB) will provide its newly innovated solar and wind run combined power plants to Bangladesh for the country's power generation. The multinational lending agency will provide two units of their new generation power plants to Bangladesh, which will be set up in the country's remote areas to run in experimental basis. This was stated by the visiting ADB Vice President X
