Maggots as an alternative antibiotic?
Maggots are a simple and ancient solution to cleaning wounds. They could also help fight AMR.
Electrifying industry with heat pumps
Electric heat pumps are a promising alternative for an efficient and emission-free supply of process heat at technically feasible temperatures, with potential to push the envelope up to over 200 degrees.
Building resilient hubs
In many places climate adaptation, rather than mitigation is needed. Not just protection against, but aid for recovery after extreme weather events.
'Baseload' electricity from renewables
It used to be said that renewables cannot provide 24/7 electricity. This project in Australia says otherwise.
Cities and the road to implementation

Thinking differently about EV charging
Shifting current EV charging from home to work, and night to day, could cut costs and help the grid.
How is Europe responding to the crisis?
Russia's invasion of Ukraine could accelerate the green transition. But only if Europe makes decisions for the long term
A focus on measurement to reduce food waste
Wasted food that ends up in landfills is a big GHG emissions problem. But there are ways in which we can be helped to reduce that waste in our own homes.
