Eco Innovation

Researchers have developed a battery that can convert nuclear energy into electricity via light emission, a new study suggests.This comes at a time as nuclear power gains traction to feed the power-hungry data centres of big tech.

SECORA Pay Green by Infineon Technologies is paving the way for more sustainable payment cards, and has motivated Mastercard to admit Infineon into its Greener Payments Partnership (GPP) advisory council.

Millions of people across the UK will have received an electronic gadget for Christmas last year, yet many are little better than low-quality gimmicks that will end up in landfill.

Space was considered the least explored, least understood phenomenon due to the complex science and technology required for its investigation. While there are many challenges to exploring space and its effects on our world, there is one vast entity much closer to us that humans have had even less success in exploring: the ocean.

Marking a quarter of the way through the century, 2025 is a pivotal year for global manufacturing and sustainability goals. But are we on track to achieve them?

tozero has achieved a major breakthrough by producing battery-grade recycled graphite at industrial scale. For the first time, this 100% recycled anode material has been successfully used in battery cell production, proving its viability for commercial applications.

Rand Technology believes sustainability is more than an aspiration – it’s a responsibility. As a specialist in electronic component sourcing and supply chain solutions, it recognises its crucial role in ensuring ethical sourcing, reducing environmental impact, and promoting a circular economy for semiconductors.

During the upcoming LOPEC trade show from 26-27th February 2025 in Munich, Germany, Henkel will showcase innovations for end-use printed electronics applications across various industries and markets.

Solar and wind power bring renewable energy to the grid, but the imbalance between supply and demand is a major limitation to maximize their use. Although solar energy is abundantly available at noon, demand is not high enough at that time, so consumers pay more per watt.

Millions of tonnes of electronic waste are produced worldwide every year. Only a fraction of this is recycled or refurbished.
