Researchers from l’Université Grenoble Alpes and the University of San Diego recently developed and patented a flexible device that’s able to produce electrical energy from human sweat. The lactate/O2 ...

In The Matrix, human beings are a literal (and metaphorical) power source – specifically, they supply bio-electricity to our AI overlords. Fortunately, enslavement to robotic masters in a ...

The outlook for biofuels may finally be brightening: With the de facto closure of the Strait of Hormuz choking off oil and gas deliveries to much of the world, prices for biofuels are increasing just ...

Why haven’t biofuels taken off? For years they have been touted as the fuel of the future, with high-profile commercial aircraft making headlines for pioneering all-biofuel international flights and ...

Oil majors, including Shell, BP, and TotalEnergies, are scaling back or delaying biofuel projects despite earlier commitments to ramp up production. Shell’s decision to cancel its massive Rotterdam ...

Solar electricity will have to compete with biofuels in the urban mobility landscape. Biofuels, however, have a very low energy productivity per hectare, as well as high requirements for fertilizers, ...

As effective as fossil fuels may be, their impact on the planet cannot be overstated. Now researchers at Berkeley Lab have coaxed bacteria into directly producing a new biofuel with an energy density ...

Argonne collaborates with U.S. laboratories on research to identify promising biofuels for different engine types. Biofuel is closer to becoming a cost-competitive, climate-friendly solution for ...

The borders of the Corn Belt have always been fuzzy. The sprawling patchwork of cornfields that spreads across the Midwestern United States is one of the most productive agricultural regions on Earth.

If you’ve pumped gas at a U.S. service station over the past decade, you’ve put biofuel in your tank. Thanks to the federal Renewable Fuel Standard, or RFS, almost all gasoline sold nationwide is ...
