According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the aviation industry accounts for 2% of global carbon emissions. Total cumulative emissions reached approximately 800 million tons in 2022, and cumulative emissions are expected to reach approximately 1,750-2,000 million tons by 2050. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has committ...

People flow solutions (PFS) is a term newly introduced in the building systems industry. It generally defines the technologies or solutions applied for people flow control and management in and outside of a building. PFS has an increasingly significant role to play in conjunction with the rapid urbanization, where human and road traffic are getting...

This edition of the Industrial Bioprocessing TOE features information on innovations in wood-to-textile fiber production, plastics circularity, protein production, sustainable transport fuels, sustainable agriculture, carbon recovery, and decarbonized concrete, among others.The Industrial Bioprocessing TOE provides intelligence on technologies, pro...

Incorporating circular economy strategies in carbon black production will support sustainable development and benefit businesses, society, and the environment. A critical challenge for carbon black manufacturers is the high carbon emissions and combining the vital outcomes of high efficiency and sustainability. A shift to a low-carbon and regenerat...

Energy and cost savings are still perceived as one of the top benefits of light-emitting diode (LED) lighting, and they will continue to influence decision-making in lighting procurement. In major countries, households' rising disposable income will result in the renovation and modification of lighting systems to keep up with LED lighting innovatio...

This report provides a comprehensive evaluation of emerging technologies, system architectures, and techno-economic dynamics shaping the global Power-to-X landscape. Covering Power-to-Hydrogen, Power-to-Gas, Power-to-Liquid, Power-to-Chemicals, and Power-to-Mobility pathways, the study examines how renewable electricity can be transformed into hydr...

Upgrading public street lights to LED lights alone is not enough to achieve desirable energy savings. Therefore networked, adaptive street lighting solutions have emerged as a leading smart city application. Although replacing existing street lights with LED lamps could cut down cities' electricity costs by 50%, networking these LEDs can deliver ad...

Building energy management is now a cornerstone of building energy sustainability. Mass digitization targets building systems management and focuses on occupant health and well-being, enabling proactive performance improvements and making buildings more human-centric. The COVID-19 pandemic emphasizes the importance of minimizing ecological footprin...

Flexible solar cells are rapidly reshaping the photovoltaic (PV) landscape, introducing a new class of lightweight, bendable, and substrate-agnostic energy‐harvesting technologies capable of powering applications that rigid crystalline silicon panels cannot reach. Enabled by breakthroughs in perovskite absorber chemistry, organic semiconductor engi...
