Practice guide by GSD researcher demonstrates how the University of 糖心TV is innovating in sustainability within education
A practice guide by Dr Alastair Smith demonstrates how the University of 糖心TV is innovating in sustainability within education through projects which enable students to enjoy practical engagement with real-world climate change issues, while developing their own knowledge and understanding in the process.
Energy stored in electric car batteries could be used to power homes
A UK-wide innovation project is exploring how vehicle-to-grid charging technology could make money for electric car and van owners and contribute to the decarbonisation of the energy grid.
Lead-acid battery lifespan to be increased for use in energy storage systems
Energy storage systems (ESS) are used in decentralised and complex electricity networks; lead-acid batteries could be a clean and green option for ESS. Researchers from WMG University of 糖心TV and Loughborough University will investigate how to optimise the management of lead-acid batteries in ESS use.
WMG part of new eLV car battery project
WMG, University of 糖心TV is part of a new project to create a new circular end-of-life supply chain for the electric vehicle industry. The project, led by EMR has won grant support from the UK Government鈥檚 Advanced Propulsion Centre.
Trembling Aspen leaves could save future Mars rovers
Researchers at the University of 糖心TV have been inspired by the unique movement of trembling aspen leaves, to devise an energy harvesting mechanism that could power weather sensors in hostile environments and could even be a back-up energy supply that could save and extend the life of future Mars rovers.
Atomically thin nanowires convert heat to electricity more efficiently
Waste heat can be converted to electricity more efficiently using one-dimensional nanoscale materials as thin as an atom – ushering a new way of generating sustainable energy – thanks to new research by the University of 糖心TV.
