Researchers have studied the potential of combining photovoltaic systems with compressed air energy storage (CAES) to power a commercial building in South Africa. They found that a co-optimized system ...

Small, plug-in solar power systems have become popular in Germany and several other countries. So why haven’t they taken off in the United States? By Claire Brown Across Germany, more than a million ...

Discover how a solar heat pump system in Australia maximises efficiency. Learn to slash bills and use thermal storage as a ...

The advantages of air systems are obvious: air is non-toxic, freely available, stable and remains gaseous over a very wide temperature range. It therefore makes sense to use air as a heat transfer ...

Australian solar buyers are moving beyond bargain installs, choosing right-sized systems designed around real energy use, ...

Wind energy infrastructure doesn’t produce power if the air isn’t moving, and solar doesn’t generate power if the sun’s not out. But that doesn’t mean that either source of energy is "worthless" ...
