Norwegian Engineers Create “Damless” Hydropower System Using Air Pressure Instead of Dams 🌊⚙️ In a groundbreaking renewable energy experiment, engineers in Norway have developed a new “damless” hydropower system that generates electricity using air pressure — not massive concrete walls. Tested along a western fjord, the container-sized prototype channels flowing water into a sealed chamber, where the force of the current compresses air. That air pressure is then released to spin turbines, produ

Norway has unveiled an innovative plan to repurpose retired offshore oil rigs into luxury eco-hotels, powered completely by renewable wave energy. What were once symbols of fossil fuel extraction are now being redesigned as floating destinations for sustainable tourism — turning industrial relics into green engineering marvels. • Each converted rig is fitted with wave-energy converters that generate clean electricity from the motion of the ocean, allowing the hotel to run entirely off-grid. • Ar
