For more than a century, engineers have chased new ways to turn the planet’s natural motions into usable power, from tides to ...

A wild idea has been proposed to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation with the help of magnetic fields. A new research has presented experimental evidence confirming a previously theorized ...

Commonwealth Fusion Systems said on Tuesday at CES 2026 that it has installed the first magnet in its Sparc fusion reactor, ...

In a world chasing cleaner energy, a group of physicists may have uncovered a surprising new way to make power: by tapping into the Earth's own rotation. That's right, researchers at Princeton ...

Electricity can be generated from the energy of Earth rotating through its own magnetic field—according to a provocative claim put forward by physicists this week. The findings are controversial but ...

Few fusion startups have been as closely watched as Helion. The 12-year-old company is backed by Sam Altman, rumored to be in talks with OpenAI, and has a deal to supply Microsoft with electricity by ...

Every day, vast quantities of rain fall across the planet. Until now, all that energy has simply gone to waste. But scientists may have found a clever new way to tap into this overlooked natural ...

Water droplets falling through a tube have generated enough electricity to power 12 LED lights. Such an approach could one day be used in roof-based systems to harvest lots of clean power from rain.
