An “invisible” plant can transform rivers meeting the sea into electricity 24 hours a day: French startup uses nanotechnology to extract energy from the salt difference between fresh and saltwater, without sun, wind, dam, or fuel.
Vivo’s project for the creation of new solar plants will reduce its energy consumption by more than 80%. Currently, the company is already utilizing solar energy in over 28,000 of its locations.
Thus, in addition to contributing to the environment by being renewable and low-impact, this measure should generate significant annual savings in energy costs.
