A safe nuclear battery that could last a lifetime - American Chemical Society
Rechargeable lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries typically last hours or days between charging. However, with repeated use, batteries degrade and need to be recharged more frequently.American Chemical Society
Finland phases out coal, ahead of schedule:
“Imported fossil energy has been replaced with cleaner solutions that reduce climate emissions, while consumers benefit from lower energy prices”
“As Finland previously relied primarily on coal imported from Russia, the phase-out has also boosted Finland’s energy independence and, therefore, national security.”

Hello Mastodon! I'm a power engineer who is trying out solo game development and on the way to release Power Network Tycoon - a game where you build and manage your own electrical grid with real physics simulation.
If you've ever wondered how power systems actually work (or why they fail), this might be your jam. I built it to be technically accurate while still being fun. To say it's been a challenge is an understatement
