Power Without a Path: The Hidden Challenge of Renewable Energy Storage (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Renewable energy is often presented as a generation problem: build more solar panels, install more wind turbines, and produce more clean electricity. But generating that power is only the beginning. Before a new renewable energy project can power homes and businesses, it has to connect to the electrical grid. That process can involve lengthy queues, infrastructure upgrades, and difficult decisions about where limited transmission capacity should go. Even after a project is connected, congestion
Eating Metal Away: New Era of 3D Printing (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Metal 3D printing has transformed the way engineers think about manufacturing. Instead of cutting material away from a solid block, parts can be built layer by layer, making it possible to create lightweight structures, intricate internal channels, and geometries that would be impossible with traditional machining. From aerospace components to medical implants, the technology has enormous potential. But one major challenge remains. Many metal parts require temporary support structures during pri
