“”A study published in the journal Joule found that switching to renewable energy could save the world at least $12 trillion by 2050, compared with continuing to rely on fossil fuels. The analysis concluded that a rapid transition to clean energy would not only reduce overall energy system costs, but also deliver more energy to

Chinese researchers converting coal directly into electricity by an electrochemical process. Needs many more years for development. The problem is it’s still a finite resource being used up. And there is still the waste left over. Solar and wind are infinite and free. https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid028ZMxJRtnzemcj46uq9d4umqztWpJDeWnuGLhaSo2dcE1erQqvW4xeRK1UZyYxsfJl&id=100064453789721&post_id=100064453789721_pfbid028ZMxJRtnzemcj46uq9d4umqztWpJDeWnuGLhaSo2dcE1erQqvW4xeRK1UZyYxsfJl&mibextid=NOb6eG
Just how wasteful is fossil fuel? Most people think about what happens inside the engine… But the real waste starts LONG before the fuel even reaches your car. To make just 1 litre of petrol /gasoline: Around 1,700-3,400 kJ (0.5-0.95 kWh) is used just to get crude oil out the ground. Then another 3,400-6,800 kJ

“”Quantum dots are smashing the 33.7% solar efficiency wall with a theoretical potential of 66% to 80%. Unlike standard panels that generate one electron per photon, these “artificial atoms” use Multiple Exciton Generation (MEG) to trigger two or more. This breakthrough is fueling a market projected to skyrocket to $3.9 billion by 2035.”” POLARIS https://www.facebook.com/reel/888005373811370/?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e
