A newly developed plastic material of the same type as is used in baby diapers can collect clean and safe drinking water from the air.

Vibrations in the ground are found everywhere. They occur when cars pass by, when machines are operating, or when the earth’s crust moves. For most of us, these are invisible forces. For researchers, however, they represent something far more...

The new NORHyWAY project represents an investment of almost one thousand million euros, and aims to increase Norwegian green hydrogen production to 37,081 tonnes per year by 2030. Enabled by EU financing, the project positions Norway as a European...

Researchers have developed a solar cell system that uses mirrors to concentrate solar energy. In addition to electricity, it produces heat for a plant that will capture carbon from industrial emissions.

A new EU-funded project will support Europe’s energy transition by creating more resilient, decarbonised energy systems by advancing hydrogen electrolysers.

Europe’s largest project for zero-emission, hydrogen-based heavy-duty transport is strengthening its collaboration to deploy 125 hydrogen-powered trucks across six European countries. The first trucks are expected to be in operational use in 2026.

To gain more knowledge about how ultra-processed food affects us, we need new research methods, claim researchers. Now they are looking to better understand our intestinal flora.

“That’s the dream,” says researcher Hanne Dalsvåg. If the researchers succeed, in the future you might be able to buy vegetables wrapped in packaging made from waste carrot or potato residues.

Researchers have developed a heat storage unit that takes up less space than a regular hot water tank. It charges when electricity is cheap and releases heat when needed.
