Two 3.6kW arrays of solar photovoltaic panels have been installed, one on the chapel roof and one on the church hall. The installation was organised by Euan McPhee, who said: "Apart from reducing the church's electricity bills, the solar power will ...

While the company's goals are lofty (create zero waste, use 100% renewable energy and sell more sustainable products) the report shows the progress it's making towards those goals. Reduced waste by 80%. Instead of shipping all trash to landfills, ...

Converting cellobiose by beta-glucosidases is the key factor for reducing cellobiose inhibition and enhancing the efficiency of cellulolytic enzymes for cellulosic ethanol production. Results: In this study, a cDNA encoding beta-glucosidase was ...

“Right now, domestic biofuel production is at the highest level ever. In fact, monthly production has increased more than 40% in the last three years. That means that biofuels are already reducing our dependence on oil, cutting pollution, and creating ...

First Solar's decision to fire 30 percent of its staff and reduce production shows that even the biggest solar panel makers aren't immune from the shakeout that's bankrupted at least eight companies on two continents in...

This data was analysed to test whether breeding densities of upland birds were reduced as a result of wind farm construction or during wind farm operation and compared to reference sites. Data was available for ten species, although none were raptors.

An executive from Siemens AG, one of the top 10 manufacturers of wind turbines in the world, talked recently on the need for the wind power sector to drastically reduce costs, according to Reuters. Felix Ferlemann, chief executive of Siemens Wind Power ...

Coral reefs are among the most diverse of all-natural ecosystems and are extremely valuable biologically - a single reef being home to hundreds of different species. One third of the world’s fish species depend on them, and they provide protection to shores by reducing wave energy.
