Scotland-based startup Mocean Energy plans to begin commercial deployments of offshore data centers from 2030, CEO Cameron McNatt told PV Magazine. Each modular unit connects via low-Earth orbit satellite communications and generates 500 kW to 1 MW without a grid connection, and will be combined with the company's existing offshore power system of floating solar and batteries, which has completed 18 months of full-scale offshore testing.
Scientists in the Netherlands may have uncovered a clue regarding why some brains resist Alzheimer's. Researchers found that a rare group of immature brain cells remains in people over 80, and their behavior differs significantly between those who develop dementia and those who remain cognitively healthy.
A CleanTechnica article says the EU is fiercely debating the automotive industry's future and how far the transition to battery electric cars will be slowed down, citing the "new energy reality" that 1 kWh of battery is cheaper than a barrel of oil. It notes a similar debate last occurred in 2022; the article text is truncated.
Mayo Clinic scientists have uncovered new insights into "zombie cells," aging cells that contribute to inflammation and disease. Seven studies identified new targeting strategies, including a natural compound found in tomatoes. In aging mice, experimental treatments reduced inflammation and improved physical and brain health.
The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) and Current Energy Group have released a whitepaper outlining how grid operators and regulators can deploy distributed energy resources such as solar and battery storage to secure the grid, boost reliability, and reduce energy costs.
Aurora Energy Research forecasts that battery energy storage revenue streams in the Philippines will shift toward arbitrage after initial reliance on reserve markets. The firm has launched a forecast service to help investors and developers assess the commercial case for battery storage in the Philippines.
Broadcast-graphics company wTVision utilizes its technology to power the immersive sports graphics in Apple Vision Pro. This technology, which provides real-time graphics and sports-data connectivity, has been used in selected immersive basketball and baseball productions for the headset.
A gene therapy linked to a boy's death reportedly had limited efficacy. The item provides no further details, such as the trial stage, the therapy's name, or the parties involved.
Nature Medicine issued an author correction to its article on toripalimab or placebo plus chemotherapy as first-line treatment in advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma, described as a multicenter randomized phase 3 trial. The feed provides no details about the correction's content, so no findings can be summarized.
Nature Medicine published an item titled 'Metabolic heterogeneity of obesity.' The feed context is sparse and offers no details about the article's content, type, or findings, so no results can be summarized beyond the title.
Scientists have identified a hidden cause of inflammatory bowel disease: antibodies that disable the immune system's natural ability to control inflammation, potentially explaining severe illness in thousands of patients. The finding also solves a 30-year genetic mystery and could pave the way for more precise diagnoses and targeted treatments.
Per STAT+, Roche's KRAS-targeting drug divarasib notched a lung cancer win, with a Roche study producing one of the more impressive data sets presented at this year's ESMO meeting.
