Have you ever imagined producing energy with only rainwater or the movement of waves? Because scientists and engineers around the world are studying ways to transform nature’s energy into clean electricity. Some modern materials can produce energy when water droplets pass through them. It’s as if each drop gives a little boost of energy. This can help create more sustainable cities in the future.
Another area that is evolving a lot is giant ships, power plants and large industries. These sectors are essential to the functioning of the world, but they are also responsible for a lot of pollution. That’s why cutting-edge engineering companies, such as Everllence, are developing more efficient engines and systems to reduce the impact on the planet.
On ships, one solution is to use synthetic fuels created from renewable sources. This new generation of fuels can replace oil and significantly reduce emissions of gases that warm the Earth. In factories, technologies known as Power to X transform energy from the wind and sun into clean fuels that can be stored and used when needed.
In heavy industry, there is a very curious technology called carbon capture and storage. It works like this. Before the carbon dioxide produced in factories escapes into the atmosphere, special machines capture this gas and send it to safe, deep underground locations. It’s as if the industry is learning to save its own pollution so as not to harm the planet.
All of these ideas are part of a global plan to dramatically reduce pollutant emissions by 2030 and achieve so-called zero carbon by 2050. This requires creativity, study, new technologies and a lot of collaboration. It is a huge challenge, but also an opportunity to transform the future.
Perhaps you, who are reading this column right now, will participate in this transformation. Science progresses when curious people ask questions and seek answers. The planet needs smart and sustainable solutions. The future of energy will be built by all of us, with imagination, responsibility and a desire to always learn more.
The planet is grateful for every discovery. And the adventure has only just begun.
