Eco Factor: Using solar energy to produce hydrogen. Researchers at MIT have announced that the technology developed by Nocera’s lab last year, a catalyst that can split water and store hydrogen, could soon meet realism as Nocera has formed a...

Eco Factor: Energy-efficient technology to generate hydrogen from water using sunlight. Normally a constituent of toothpastes and sun screen lotions, titania (or titanium dioxide) could revolutionize hydrogen generation if the research conducted...

Eco Factor: Sustainable car powered by hydrogen. Designed by a team from MINI Space, the BMW Salt Flat racer is truly a race car developed for a sustainable future. Though the design of the car seems adopted from the past decades, the technology...

Eco Factor: Electrolyzer produces hydrogen and oxygen gas from water. Dan Nocera, a professor at MIT, has thought of an all new approach to combat the energy crisis looming large on the global population. Instead of using expensive solar arrays or.

Eco Factor: Battery-free digital clock powered by lemons. Florian Dussopt and Julie Girard have used lemons not to make lemonade, but to power a special clock that replaces battery power with lemon power. The clock comes with a wooden plank that...

Eco Factor: Cost effective way to generate hydrogen using electrolysis of water. Solar power can never be the primary source of power, unless cost-effective storage solutions are developed. For now solar energy is stored in batteries and...

Eco Factor: Device invented in 1833 modified to generate cheap hydrogen. Italian researcher G.D. Botto designed an amazing device in 1833 which produced electricity using a thermocouple of two metals – platinum and iron. Botto connected...

Now you can produce hydrogen at a cost equal to gasoline. GE's Global Research lab researchers in Niskayuna, NY, have developed a system for the production of the alternative fuel to oil. What interests the most is that this system can generate...
