+1 +1Geospatial Data: Its Value and Types
Geospatial data is one of the fundamentals of digital transformation, linking unconnected data sets. Such data is used in a variety of applications, including digital land registry development, advanced infrastructure planning, public data collection and sharing, or digitization of cadastral records. Geospatial data providers put a huge amount of time, effort, and finances into the transformation of their services so that they benefit people, businesses, and authorities.

+12 +2Floating Artificial Leaf Turns CO2 Into Fuel
A new artificial leaf is light enough to float on water, where it can soak up sunlight and carbon dioxide from air, and use the water below to produce fuels. Researchers at Cambridge University tested their 100-square-centimeter artificial-leaf device outdoors on a river. Depending on the catalyst used, the device either splits water to produce hydrogen fuel, or converts carbon dioxide into syngas, a mix of carbon monoxide and hydrogen that is used to make other fuels like methanol. Fleets of such devices could be deployed on brackish water ponds, canals, and on seas, so as not to compete with land use, they say.

+12 +2Lithium-ion batteries: One size does not fit all in application or in assessment
Seeing is believing—or, rather, seeing can aid in understanding, especially when it comes to the mechanisms underpinning lithium-ion batteries. Despite near-ubiquitous use in cell phones, computers and more, the complex electrochemical environments of lithium-ion batteries remain murky.

+15 +3Nuclear fusion reactor sustains plasma at 100 million C for 30 seconds
Scientists in South Korea have managed to get a nuclear fusion reactor to operate a stable plasma for 30 seconds, marking another promising step toward unlimited clean energy. Nuclear fusion, a process that physicists and engineers have been working on for decades, involves merging two atomic nuclei to form one larger nucleus under intense heat and pressure.

+26 +1New contra-rotating turbine design produces double the energy of the world's largest turbine
Norway-based firm World Wide Wind is developing a new type of floating, vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) that it believes will radically change, and improve, the way we harness the wind's powers, a report from New Atlas reveals. Their VAWTs employ two sets of contra-rotating blades to produce double the output of today's biggest turbines, the company says.
