Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have pioneered a significant advancement in wind energy technology: the creation of wind turbine blades that are bio-derivable and chemically recyclable. This innovation could dramatically reduce the environmental impact of wind energy by eliminating the need to discard old blades in landfills, a growing concern as wind power becomes a central pillar of the global renewable energy landscape.

NREL’s Breakthrough in Renewable, Recyclable Wind Energy

Choosing a company that sells clean energy … can result in even lower electric bills and less polluted air — a win-win for you and the planet.

Data centers being rapidly built in the West are becoming an “emerging risk” to electrical grid reliability in the region, according to regional transmission experts. New data centers, which can be built in as little as 18 months, are far outpacing the growth in new electrical energy supply and transmission, according to members of the Western Electricity Coordinating Council, a nonprofit organization based in Salt Lake City that ensures grid connection and reliability between utilities in 14 western states and parts of Canada and Mexico. Members of the council discussed challenges to grid reliability at a recent webinar first reported by the trade publication RTO Insider.

With the construction of a new combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power plant in Altbach/Deizisau in Germany, EnBW is paving the way for the future use of low-CO2 or green hydrogen in the 2030s. As a first step, the site’s electricity and heat production will be switched from coal to gas starting in 2026. The top priority is the uninterrupted supply to households and industry. To ensure this, it was crucial to find competent and reliable partners.
