Making sustainable hydropower a reality

Whilst being a renewable energy, hydropower has a rather large 
environmental footprint. From its dams causing flooding to its power 
plants threatening fish populations, the key to the wider use of 
hydropower is to make it more sustainable. Thanks to new cost-effective 
measures developed by the EU-funded FIThydro project, environmentally 
friendly, sustainable hydropower may soon be a reality.

Quarterly research and innovation literature review: R&I and the green 
transition
The selected papers underpin the importance of designing climate 
policies with innovation at the forefront. They also make a case for 
coordination of policies and designing them in a way to influence the 
volume, direction and pace of R&I.

Out with air conditioners, in with chilled water – how Europe could 
slash its cooling footprint

As climate change warms the world, we increasingly need to find ways to 
efficiently cool our buildings – whilst also lowering our emissions to 
attempt to halt the temperature rise as much as possible. Traditional 
air conditioners are a poor method of achieving either goal, but what if 
there was another way?
