It appears that Bentley may be testing a Flying Spur V8 Plug-In Hybrid prototype.
Assuming the Flying Spur V8 Plug-In Hybrid becomes a reality, it would likely combine a powerful V8 engine with an electric motor and a battery pack, resulting in improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. The electric motor would provide additional power to the car’s drivetrain and allow for all-electric driving in certain situations, such as low-speed city driving.
As with other Bentley models, the Flying Spur V8 Plug-In Hybrid would be expected to offer luxurious amenities and advanced technology feature ..read more

The latest technology being used in geothermal energy is Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS). EGS involves creating man-made geothermal reservoirs in areas where natural ones do not exist by injecting water into hot, dry rock to create steam, which can be used to generate electricity.
Other new technologies being developed include:
Direct Use systems, which take advantage of the relatively constant temperature of the Earth to heat and cool buildings, and for industrial processes.
Binary Cycle Power plants, which use a secondary fluid with a lower boiling point than water to transfer hea ..read more

According to the German team, mortality at hydropower stations could be reduced if effective fish protection was installed. Mechanical fish deflectors, adequately installed fish ladders and descent aids, whose functionality must also be continuously checked and ensured, are required, they said.
There are numerous reasons why hydropower projects are often resisted by environmental groups. One of the most common issues with hydropower is the elevated mortality of fish caused by turbines. The chance of certain fish being wiped out increases as hydropower plants are often positioned in suc ..read more

Solar energy is widely considered to be the future of renewable energy. Solar panels are now cheaper and more efficient than ever before, and solar energy could feasibly meet a majority of the world’s energy needs by 2050. But solar power has its limitations. Solar panels can only generate electricity during daylight hours, which means that solar power is most effective in locations with long, sunny summers. As a result, there are some inherent limitations to solar as a stand-alone renewable source of energy. Technology innovation is an important factor in helping solar reach new heights. Th ..read more
