SME workers: pay us to go green

The seven dwarves must have a fairly large carbon footprint. For a start, they work in mining, which isn't exactly well known for environmental credentials and they're also a decidedly small business. Apparently, insurer AXA reckons small businesses are absolutely chucking out carbon - some 110 tonnes every year it reckons. And they're not daft about their…

Shell leaves London Array wind farm in disarray

Is it Greenbang, or does Shell also remind you of a cartoon baddie? How about the Hooded Claw? Remember him? He was the cloaked fiend who endlessly chased Penelope Pitstop.

E.ON promises 24% renewables – and gas, coal, nuclear

Sheffield biomass power plant E.ON the cards

Biomass power generators always remind Greenbang of Back to the Future II. Remember the Mr Fusion Home Energy Reactor that the Doc fits to the De Lorean while visiting 2015 that converts organic home waste into electrical power? What a crazy idea, eh? Well it's not such a crazy idea anymore, with E.ON's scientists just…

215MW wind trio gets the go ahead

Good things, as we all know, come in threes. Earth, Wind and Fire, for example, or bacon, lettuce and tomato. The evidence is indisputable, and it's something that's clearly ringing a bell with the government, which has given its thumbs up to three new wind farms.
