Nanotechnology and The Future of Renewables

Nanotechnology and The Future of Renewables | Daily Magazine | Scoop.it

For many people, understanding the unique challenges of nanotechnology can feel a little overwhelming. After all, the general consensus is, that it will be quicker to list what nanotechnology won’t change. One element that this technology is likely to have a profound effect on though, is the usage and the popularity of renewable energy, which is further explained here.

 

Still seen today by many skeptics as a waste of time in regards to the challenge of climate change, renewable energy is set to become a major determining factor of our century and beyond. To this end, it appears that a major branch of technology influencing the fulfillment of this goal, will be nanotechnology.

Andreas Christodoulou's comment, October 29, 2018 2:00 AM
Now, more than ever, we are faced against the major implications deriving from the uncontrollable use of non-renewable sources of energy. Our contemporary lifestyle, demands that we drive research and practice, towards alternative sources of energy, such that will deal with the current and future energy crisis. In this respect, nanotechnology, seems to be a promising tool to the future of sustainable and efficient renewable energy. Some of the premises from this branch of technology, are explored in this article.

Agreement on statistical transfers of renewable energy amounts between Lithuania and Luxembourg | #EU

Agreement on statistical transfers of renewable energy amounts between Lithuania and Luxembourg | #EU | Daily Magazine | Scoop.it
The European Commission congratulates Lithuania and Luxembourg for the first ever cooperation agreement on the statistical transfer of renewable energy amounts as stipulated in the Renewable Energy Directive. The agreement signed today (26 October 2017) helps Luxembourg achieve its national renewable energy target for 2020 by receiving a statistical transfer of a specified amount of renewable energy produced in Lithuania. Lithuania reached its national renewable energy target for 2020 in 2015 and aims to further develop renewable energy in its economy.

This agreement shows that these cooperation mechanisms give EU Member States greater flexibility to reach their renewable energy targets, providing them with a useful tool to jointly develop renewable energy potential in a mutually advantageous way.  In this way, countries with more cost-effective and abundant potential in renewable energy can help other countries reach their national targets, as well as help the EU as a whole achieve the 20% renewable energy target in 2020.
