Solar-to-X enables industrial defossilization turning power to molecules or materials

Solar-to-X enables industrial defossilization turning power to molecules or materials

The industry sector is most challenging to defossilize, due to high energy and feedstock demand, large and continuously running production plants, hard-to-abate process emissions, and infrastructural challenges. In public discourse, hydrogen is discussed prominently for industry, but its role may be overestimated. Solar PV as the least cost source of electricity may bring the electrification

108 million degrees! Solar flares are far hotter than thought, study suggests

108 million degrees! Solar flares are far hotter than thought, study suggests

The strongest solar flare of 2025 erupts, causing radio blackouts across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. New research shows that flare particles can reach over 108 million degrees Fahrenheit (60 million degrees Celsius) — six times hotter than previously thought — underscoring the need for updated models to better predict space weather.
