Korea Southern Power just announced a sweeping plan to add enough renewable energy to power millions of homes over the next 16 years. The state-run company will invest heavily in solar panels and offshore wind farms across the country.
Two First Nations are partnering with global energy leaders to develop one of Canada's largest offshore wind farms, marking a historic shift toward Indigenous-led renewable energy. The project could power hundreds of thousands of homes while creating economic opportunities for coastal communities.
Aging wind farms across America could triple their energy output through upgrades, solving a critical problem: how to power the massive data centers driving AI innovation. A new report reveals this solution could add 161 gigawatts of clean energy without waiting years for new projects.
Migratory ducks in Denmark developed a surprising survival strategy when offshore wind farms blocked their flight path. Instead of crashing into turbines, the birds learned to fly down the center corridors between blades, especially after dark.
Scientists tracking seals in the North Sea discovered the animals swimming in precise geometric patterns through offshore wind farms, using turbines as hunting grounds. The unexpected behavior reveals how renewable energy infrastructure is creating thriving new ecosystems underwater.
A Netherlands company just launched a floating wind turbine that tilts its blades to catch stronger winds and boost power output. The 2026 test could help wind farms generate more clean energy from the same ocean space.
Researchers just solved one of renewable energy's biggest puzzles: how to predict dangerous power surges from wind farms before they happen. The breakthrough could help the world safely scale up clean energy as wind power prepares to overtake coal by 2026.
Britain's largest regional airline just locked in a 15-year supply of sustainable aviation fuel made from wind power and waste. The groundbreaking deal could help smaller wind farms finally find a use for their excess energy.
Australia just approved its largest renewable energy round ever, greenlighting gigantic wind farms that will power millions of homes. Major international companies are racing to build clean energy Down Under.
The United Kingdom just greenlit enough wind energy to power millions of homes, showing how clear policies can accelerate clean energy progress. While some countries navigate regulatory challenges, Britain is proving that streamlined approval processes work.
Spain's wind energy sector just opened a new artificial intelligence laboratory to make renewable power faster, cheaper, and more reliable. The partnership between industry leaders and AI experts aims to transform how wind farms operate across the country.
Scientists created a water-based battery that charges 120,000 times without wearing out, making clean energy storage safer and cheaper than ever. This breakthrough could help solar and wind farms store power affordably for days or weeks.
In oil-rich Texas, wind turbines are generating surprising revenue that's keeping seniors cool during heatwaves and bringing telemedicine to remote areas. The state's conservative rural counties are embracing renewables not for the environment, but for stable funding that supports their most vulnerable residents.
When renewable energy companies come knocking, many landowners say no. In Australia's far west, graziers are saying yes to what could become one of the country's largest wind farms.
South Korea is replacing its 13-year-old renewable energy system with government-led auctions designed to build more solar and wind farms faster. The change aims to move the country closer to its goal of 100 GW of clean energy by 2030.
India and Norway just joined forces on offshore wind and ocean energy with five major agreements that could reshape how the world's largest democracy powers its future. The deals bring together top research institutions to make floating wind farms cheaper and more sustainable.
Britain just greenlit three massive offshore wind farms that will power millions of homes and push the country closer to its clean energy goal. Wind now generates 30 percent of the UK's electricity, and that number keeps climbing.
Turkey is taking a major step toward clean energy by identifying ocean areas perfect for wind farms. The mapping project sets the stage for the country's first offshore wind energy auction.
From London's offshore wind farms to Sydney's automated metro, massive infrastructure projects are proving that cities can grow and go green at the same time. These engineering marvels are cutting millions of tons of carbon while moving millions of people.
Researchers just introduced ecotech, a new field that designs technology inspired by entire ecosystems, not just individual organisms. Florida could lead this breakthrough industry that transforms everything from wind farms to agriculture.
