A new study led by Southwest Research Institute's Dr. Michael Starkey has provided observational evidence from the SwRI-led Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) Mission of pickup ions (PUIs) and associated ...

NASA’s Magnetospheric Multiscale Mission has uncovered surprising behavior of pickup ions drifting through the solar wind near Earth. These particles, once thought to be minor players, appear capable ...

Wave power may emerge as a valuable renewable energy source given recent economic and technical projections indicating a substantial potential of wave energy, particularly in coastal and island ...

As the weather cools down and the days turn shorter, now's the time to prepare for the colder months ahead. While you're at it, you should prepare for winter-storm induced power outages by picking up ...

Two renewable energy sources, wind and solar, are generally studied individually, but their interplay can affect how the grid operates.

This story was originally published by The Conversation. Drive through the plains of Iowa or Kansas and you’ll see more than rows of corn, wheat and soybeans. You’ll also see towering wind turbines ...

Blue energy—renewable power derived from the kinetic and potential forces of water—has become a key pathway for building sustainable and low-carbon energy systems. This review synthesizes global ...

Summer in Houston arrived with a bang. Tuesday afternoon's high temperature of 95 degrees at Bush Intercontinental Airport shattered a 118-year-old record. Wednesday was even hotter: 96 degrees, ...

The Sustainably Co-locating Agricultural and Photovoltaic Electricity Systems (SCAPES) project, led by the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s ...
