The Energy Sources of the Future

We have been fortunate enough to be in an interesting point of time. We are in kind of the transition point between the dirty traditional fossil fuels and the tomorrow powered by green sources. This article will cover some of the awesome mind-blowing tech being researched out there. I would upheld my futuristic view point and be bold to dream that these technologie…

Mechanical Battery | Flywheel Energy Storage

In the late 1940s a Swiss company- Oerlikon, developed a peculiar kind of public bus, the Gyrobus . It was a electrically powered bus made to operate over short distances and low traffic regions with zero greenhouse gas emission. The thing that made the Gyrobus so unique was that instead of any electro-chemical batteries or any internal combustion engines it was powe…

Super Capacitors : The Future of Batteries

What are Super Capacitors? How are they Different from Normal Electrolytic Capacitors?  How are they Different From Batteries? In What way are they gonna revolutionise the Today's Power Storage Systems?  -  If these are the Questions that bother you, then this is the right place to be!!! Before going into the debate if supercapacitors can really change the fut…

Why do we need a Revolution in NRG Storage?

In the coming decade the energy sector and our modern electricity grid is going to get a paradigm shift. We are on the brink of a revolution in the way  we consider power supply. If Charles Babbage time travels to 2020 he will definitely get startled when  he sees our modern super computers, but for someone like Edison or Tesla it will be nothing much new. The energy…

GEN IV Nuclear Reactors

The need for clean and sustainable energy has led scientists and engineers to undertake several projects and experiments for finding new and innovative energy system. Until fusion energy is achieved we have to deal with our existing technologies. Nuclear fission is one such source which has been providing clean energy for industries, transportation and other commerci…

Solarised Gas Turbines

Tokamak-The future of Fusion

Soon after tapping power from nuclear fission , Scientist turned their interest towards its mightier twin, Nuclear fusion . The ambitious minds of the 20th Century wanted to tap to the power of the mighty sun. But to reach such technology to contain such powerful energy in a controlled way and reach such high temperatures to make fusion possible was a humongous task.…

Introducing Nano Tech. in Solar Technology

One of the best ways to capture Solar Energy  is through solar cells.The commercial solar cells of the present times are nothing but photo voltaic cell in an integrated fashion. These are usually semiconductor diodes, generally made out of silicon. As said previously, the process of making the plates highly alter the efficiency of solar panels but also adds a bulk t…
