A UK startup called Ironic Metals is developing a low-temperature electrolysis process to produce green iron and nickel. They’re targeting a production cost of just $400 per tonne and have backing from mining giant Anglo American. A pilot cell is planned for early 2026.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff has given a favorable safety evaluation for TerraPower’s construction permit. The company aims to have its advanced Natrium reactor, which can surge to 500 megawatts, producing power in Kemmerer, Wyoming, by 2030.
Samsung and SK Hynix, who control over 70% of global DRAM output, say they won’t rapidly expand production despite a severe shortage. They’re prioritizing long-term profitability, fearing a future oversupply. This means high RAM and GPU prices could persist for years.
A new global study commissioned by Schneider Electric reveals the massive hidden cost of proprietary industrial automation. For smaller manufacturers, the impact can be a staggering 25% of annual revenue lost to inefficiency and downtime.
The automaker consortium Ionna is making a massive $250 million push into California’s EV charging market. The move is part of a rapid national rollout, with the network now boasting over 4,000 contracted charging bays. It’s a clear signal that carmakers are taking charging infrastructure into their
Saudi Arabia’s massive renewable energy goals under Vision 2030 face a hot problem. To make advanced solar cells work in the desert, engineers are turning to active cooling systems like forced air and liquid cooling to fight efficiency-killing heat.
University of Rochester researchers have developed algorithms that uncover the atomic-level mechanics behind propane-to-propylene conversion. The discovery reveals how oxide patterns stabilize catalysts, potentially revolutionizing industrial chemical production. This could move manufacturers away f
SemiLEDs just reported an eight-fold revenue increase for fiscal 2025, jumping from $5.18 million to $43 million. But the celebration might be premature – their gross margins plummeted to just 2% in the final quarter. This looks like growth at any cost, and the cost appears to be profitability.
Skeleton Technologies has opened a €220 million supercapacitor factory in Germany targeting AI data center power challenges. The company claims its graphene-based systems can reduce required grid capacity for GPU clusters by nearly half while eliminating wasteful “GPU burn.”
Taiwan’s top electronics ODMs are shifting from green power adoption to actively reducing carbon across their entire supply chains. The push comes as Scope 3 emissions reporting is expected to become mandatory, with Wistron leading in renewable energy usage.
