Researchers recently discovered plants’ biological clocks’ roles in energy production. They expanded on past research groups’ work into electrokinetics — the study of electrically charged fluids — changing understanding of the relationship between greenery and electricity. Could their findings change how people think about renewables?
A new poll of energy experts conducted by Cornwall Insight and law firm Weightmans, shows 75 percent of respondents think being able to get a timely grid connection is the biggest challenge to the rollout of renewables in the UK.
On Friday, the Confederated Tribes of the Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians filed a lawsuit against the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management in Oregon Federal District Court.  The lawsuit challenges BOEM’s cursory environmental review for the development of private offshore wind energy facilities in two areas off the Oregon Coast near Coos Bay and Brookings.Â
