BBC: Installing more wind turbines will make the UK's energy market more resilient to global fossil fuel price shocks, an independent report has concluded. Dwindling domestic gas and coal supplies mean the nation would become dependent on volatile imports, it adds. The report, by Cambridge Econometrics for RenewableUK, said wind power saved the UK 579 million in fossil fuel costs in 2013. The UK is recognised for having the best wind resource in Europe. "One of the main messages from this...

National Geographic: Nowadays, bodies of water aren't necessarily something to build around-they're something to build on. They sport not just landfills and man-made beaches but also, in a nascent global trend, massive solar power plants. Clean energy companies are turning to lakes, wetlands, ponds, and canals as building grounds for sunlight-slurping photovoltaic panels. So far, floating solar structures have been announced in, among other countries, the United Kingdom, Australia, India, and Italy. The biggest floating...
