(Natural News) An energy company was given a five-year probation and ordered to pay $8 million in fines after they were found to have killed 150 bald and golden eagles on their wind turbines. The company, NextEra Energy, a subsidiary of ESI Energy, pleaded guilty to violating the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which prevents anyone […]

(Natural News) When wind farms are mentioned, traditional propeller turbines usually come to mind. However, a new vertical turbine design is set to revolutionize wind energy production. Researchers found that the new vertical design boasts better efficiency than its traditional counterpart. They also discovered that the vertical turbines perform better by 15 percent when set […]

(Natural News) Winds in the stormy North Sea stopped blowing, and Europe, which already lacks natural gas, found electricity markets surging. This sudden slowdown in wind-driven electricity production in the U.K. caused a sudden switch in the direction of regional energy markets as gas and coal-fired electricity plants were called to make up for the […]

(Natural News) A startup battery company in the U.S. has developed an iron-air battery that stores electricity for extended periods by rusting. Massachusetts-based Form Energy touts its iron-air battery, which utilizes the reactions of iron and air to store energy, as significantly more affordable than its current lithium-ion counterparts Form Energy’s battery consists of cells […]

(Natural News) They say that the textbook definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting a different outcome. That can be said about the Left’s social and climate policies. For years, so-called “greenies” have pushed renewable energy as an alternative to fossil fuel-driven energy generation, despite the fact that […]

(Natural News) Wind turbines might be a popular source of renewable energy, but they can come at a big cost to those who live near them. A research team from the University of Toronto explored how residential distance from wind turbines could impact people’s health. They looked at those who lived anywhere from just under […]

(Natural News) Wind turbines have been used to generate wind power, which is generally regarded as clean energy. However, wind turbines have killed numerous bats and birds, including golden eagles and bald eagles, which are federally protected species. Researchers have come up with a solution to minimize these deaths in a study published in Wind Energy. The researchers have […]

(Natural News) An energy storage concept from the Radical ’60s could solve the biggest problem of the wind energy sector. In an article published in ScienceDaily, Kansas researchers have developed a viable hydrogen-bromine flow battery that could store excess electricity during the night. Anyone who has been in the Midwest is bound to run across a wind […]

(Natural News) What’s stopping you from going forward on clean energy? If it’s the exorbitant prices, you may want to look at them again, as the open market has now decided that it has become a much cheaper source of electricity than other conventional methods. This is according to a report on a recent bidding […]

(Natural News) Based on the study of data concerning energy figures, in 2017 wind farms in the U.K. produced more energy compared to coal plants for more than 75 percent of days in the last year. According to the website MyGridGB, solar energy also surpassed coal “more than half the time.” In general, figures up to […]
