New research is finally spotlighting a hidden health crisis affecting 60% of Zambia's workforce. Simple, low-cost solutions could protect millions of farmers from worsening heat stress.
A Danish company just made industrial heating a whole lot greener with modular heat pumps that can power entire districts without fossil fuels. These machines turn electricity into heat three times more efficiently than traditional systems.
Britain is abandoning its hydrogen home heating experiment in favor of electric heat pumps, solar panels, and wind power. The shift marks a major win for proven clean technology over risky experiments.
With no federal heat protections in place, New York City workers and unions are creating their own life-saving system to survive dangerous summer temperatures. Their grassroots effort is keeping outdoor workers safe when government action stalled.
A new heat pump system does the work of three separate machines, making it easier and cheaper for homeowners to heat, cool, and produce hot water while cutting energy bills. The all-in-one design could help more families switch to clean heating powered by rooftop solar panels.
A Chinese manufacturer just solved one of home energy's biggest puzzles: a heat pump that runs almost entirely on rooftop solar panels. The system could slash heating and cooling bills to nearly zero.
Viessmann just launched a heat pump that works with old radiators, not just new systems. The breakthrough could help millions retrofit their homes without expensive renovations.
Samsung just launched a heat pump that does it all from one sleek outdoor unit half the size of its predecessor. The system heats homes, cools air, warms floors, and provides hot water even when temperatures plunge to -25°C.
Ventura County is making home energy upgrades more affordable while creating quality jobs through a new program that trains local workers and helps residents save on efficient heating and cooling. The two-year initiative will install 100 heat pumps and support four small businesses.
Japanese manufacturer Daikin just launched eco-friendly propane heat pumps that can replace traditional boilers in everything from small buildings to massive district heating systems. The scalable technology delivers efficient heating while dramatically reducing environmental impact.
America just hit a historic milestone: heat pumps are now outselling traditional gas furnaces, marking a major shift toward cleaner, more efficient home heating. Nearly half of all new homes built in 2024 included these energy-saving devices that both heat and cool.
A Chinese clean energy company just solved one of the biggest inefficiencies in home heating by creating heat pumps that run directly on solar power without wasteful energy conversion. These new systems could make renewable heating affordable for millions of homeowners worldwide.
A German energy company is building a massive power-to-heat facility that transforms excess renewable electricity into heat for homes, solving two problems at once. The innovative system helps phase out coal while stabilizing the grid during windy, sunny days.
Researchers created a device that recycles waste heat into cooling power, no electricity needed. The breakthrough could one day help hot-running electronics chill themselves using their own excess heat.
Mitsubishi just launched heat pumps that work efficiently in freezing temperatures while running quieter than a normal conversation. The eco-friendly units use propane instead of harmful refrigerants and can heat large homes without expensive upgrades.
