8+ hour, 44+ min ago (471+ words) The country is facing 9 supply chain gaps that have blocked its hydropower infrastructure transformation. The United States is facing nine major supply chain challenges that could delay the rehabilitation of its hydropower infrastructure, according to a new report from the…...
Quantum 'fingerprint' tech could catch faulty chip before deployment
11+ hour, 6+ min ago (970+ words) Using a star-shaped network, researchers found a way to certify the operations at the heart of quantum computers. Quantum computing has long carried a paradox at its core: if a quantum computer eventually solves problems too difficult for any classical…...
US firm gets permission for 600 MWh Minnesota battery project
11+ hour, 5+ min ago (542+ words) The new battery storage unit will provide enough power for about 4 hours at 150 MW discharge. Spearmint Energy (Spearmint) has announced it has now secured a site for a planned 600 megawatt-hour battery energy storage facility in Freeborn County, Minnesota. This follows…...
Mission supercomputer adds NVIDIA Vera CPUs with 12x performance
1+ day, 29+ min ago (595+ words) Mission and Vision supercomputers enter the testing phase after Los Alamos receives its first Vera CPU server built for HPC and agentic workloads. Los Alamos National Laboratory has taken another step toward its next generation of supercomputing after receiving the…...
Flowing zinc battery retains 81% capacity after 5,500 cycles in tests
1+ day, 15+ min ago (449+ words) Researchers develop flowing zinc slurry battery that runs 5,128 hours for long-duration energy storage. Researchers in China have developed a flowing zinc slurry battery that operated continuously for 5,128 hours, offering a new approach to long-duration energy storage for renewable power systems....
US scientists' new conductor outperforms copper in computer chips
1+ day, 5+ hour ago (534+ words) Researchers in the US have developed nanowires made from niobium arsenide, a quantum material that can replace copper because it becomes a better electrical conductor as it gets thinner. Electrical interconnects are tiny wires and connectors that link electronic systems…...
India Just Launched Its First Hydrogen Train
1+ day, 11+ hour ago (159+ words) India flagged off its first hydrogen-powered train — the largest one running anywhere in the world. PM Modi launched it from Jind, Haryana. Ten coaches, 89 kilometres to Sonipat, carrying nearly 2,600 passengers. The engineering: instead of overhead wires, it makes its own…...
First-ever cold radioactive molecules target antimatter mystery
1+ day, 5+ hour ago (501+ words) Cold radium molecules could help scientists uncover why matter survived while antimatter largely disappeared. Caltech researchers have created cold molecules containing the radioactive element radium for the first time, opening a new way to investigate why the universe is made…...
US scientists develop ultrathin coating to stabilize solid-state batteries
1+ day, 7+ hour ago (516+ words) The ideal coatings created a barrier that successfully blocked degradation-causing electron flow while still allowing lithium ions to move freely. The approach combined computational screening with experimental testing. It showed that the most effective coatings work by reacting at the…...
