A massive Idaho dairy farm is now converting waste from 35,000 cows into clean transportation fuel that's better for the climate than fossil fuels. The facility captures harmful methane emissions and transforms them into renewable natural gas for trucks and fleets across America.
For every dollar invested in fossil fuels this year, nearly two dollars are flowing into clean energy. Even when you add massive government subsidies to fossil fuels, clean energy still comes out ahead.
University of Utah researchers discovered fuel cells can now clean themselves using steam, solving a major problem that has held back clean energy technology. The breakthrough could make pollution-free power generation work with everyday fuels.
More than 25 countries just committed to dramatically scale up clean fuel production by 2035, marking a major shift in global energy policy. The move comes as new research shows clean fuels could transform hard-to-decarbonize industries while creating thousands of jobs.
Northwestern University researchers have created a breakthrough system that uses electricity to generate plasma—like bottled lightning—transforming methane gas into clean-burning methanol in a single step. This innovation could eliminate the need for extreme heat and pressure while converting a potent greenhouse gas into valuable fuel.
Researchers just figured out how to transform plastic waste into clean hydrogen fuel using only sunlight and old car battery acid. This breakthrough tackles two pollution problems at once while creating valuable green energy.
Indian scientists have cracked the code on turning crop waste into a clean cooking fuel that could replace expensive imported LPG. The homegrown innovation pays farmers for their leftovers while cutting air pollution in cities.
Boeing has teamed up with Israel's Technion Institute to develop sustainable aviation fuel that could cut carbon emissions by 80 percent. The groundbreaking collaboration aims to make clean jet fuel commercially viable using hydrogen and captured CO₂.
Michigan could be sitting on vast reserves of naturally forming hydrogen deep underground, and Governor Gretchen Whitmer wants to explore whether this clean fuel could help power the state's future. If successful, the discovery could transform hard-to-electrify industries without the environmental cost of fossil fuels.
Brazil just opened applications for a major clean energy innovation program that pairs companies with research institutions to develop low-carbon technologies. The initiative runs through August and aims to strengthen the nation's sustainable industry while cutting emissions.
Scientists just made it far cheaper to produce a clean fuel that could help the world ditch fossil fuels. The breakthrough could unlock billions of tons of sustainable energy imports.
Deep beneath Michigan's surface lies geologic hydrogen, a naturally occurring clean fuel that could power ships and trucks without emissions. Governor Whitmer just launched an initiative to tap this billion-year-old energy source that requires far less energy to extract than manufacturing hydrogen from scratch.
Chinese researchers just solved a problem that's stumped scientists for decades, turning carbon pollution into clean fuel three times faster than before. The breakthrough could help recycle CO2 emissions while producing methanol, a fuel that powers everything from ships to everyday products.
Hawaii is proving islands can ditch fossil fuels for good, using sunshine at home and imported clean fuels for planes and ships. The state's new energy plan shows how to decarbonize everything from homes to tourism without relying on natural gas.
Standard Nuclear just secured $140 million to produce safer nuclear fuel, riding a wave of investment in clean energy solutions. The company is betting on next-generation reactors that could power our AI-driven future without carbon emissions.
Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory created a breakthrough method that turns ethanol into jet fuel in just one step, potentially making sustainable aviation fuel affordable enough for airlines worldwide. The technology could help meet aviation's massive fuel needs while cutting emissions.
The East Coast is building a massive hydrogen fueling network to help freight trucks go green without the long charging waits of electric vehicles. Federal funding of $750 million is creating fuel stations from Boston to Washington D.C., solving the chicken-and-egg problem that's kept clean trucks off the road.
Researchers at Adelaide University have developed a breakthrough technology that uses sunlight to convert plastic waste into hydrogen fuel and valuable chemicals. This innovation could tackle plastic pollution while creating clean energy.
Aircraft giant Boeing is investing millions in a three-year partnership with Israel's top tech university to develop sustainable aviation fuel that could cut carbon emissions by up to 80%. The collaboration aims to make clean flying affordable and scalable for airlines worldwide.
A Liberian initiative is solving pollution, deforestation, and energy poverty with one breakthrough approach. Green Gold Liberia is converting contaminated water and organic waste into clean cooking fuel while teaching communities to build a green economy.
