This battery recycling company is now cleaning up AI data centers

technologyreview.com James Temple 2026-02-17 12:30:00

The event marked the launch of the company's new business line, Redwood Energy, which will repurpose (rather than recycle) batteries with years of remaining life to create renewable-powered microgrids. Such small-scale energy systems can operate on or off the larger electricity grid, providing electricity for businesses or communities. Redwood Materials says many of the batteries it takes in for processing retain more than half their capacity. “We can extract a lot more value from that materia

The Debrief: Power and energy

technologyreview.com Mat Honan 2026-02-22 22:00:00

Yet in many ways right now the US seems to be forgetting those lessons. It is moving backward in terms of its clean-­energy strategy, especially when it comes to powering the grid, in ways that will affect the nation for decades to come—even as China and others are surging forward. And that retreat is taking place just as electricity demand and usage are growing again after being flat for nearly two decades. That growth, according to the US Energy Information Administration, is “coming from the

AI Is Turbocharging Global Inequality

futurism.com Unknown 2026-02-24 22:03:47

As the AI race shows no signs of slowing down, it's clear which countries started in pole position — and are poised to hold onto their lead. "Artificial intelligence has created a new digital divide," warns the New York Times in new reporting, "fracturing the world between nations with the computing power for building cutting-edge AI systems and those without." That warning is based on new data from researchers at Oxford University showing the distribution of the world's most powerful data cen

Apple heard your complaints about the Liquid Glass Control Center

theverge.com Jay Peters 2026-02-25 20:34:27

is a news editor covering technology, gaming, and more. He joined The Verge in 2019 after nearly two years at Techmeme. My biggest complaint with Liquid Glass in the first iOS 26 developer beta was that it sometimes made Control Center nearly unreadable, but Apple has seemingly fixed that with the second beta, which is out now. In the first beta, the glassiness of everything meant that you could still see a fair amount of what was under Control Center, making it all look really cluttered. With

Apple read your mean tweets about Liquid Glass and Finder

engadget.com Unknown 2026-02-26 04:22:30

The more things change, the more they stay the same. After unveiling some new visual elements to the next generation of its operating systems during WWDC 2025, Apple has already walked back some of the proposed design revisions. 9to5Mac noticed that the most recent developer betas included changes to the new Liquid Glass operating system appearance and to the Finder app icon. Liquid Glass was divisive from the start . The idea of layering transparency in the user interface appealed to some, whi

Apple’s Liquid Glass interface improves with release of iOS 26 Beta 2

techcrunch.com Sarah Perez 2026-02-26 18:54:29

With Monday’s release of iOS 26 Beta 2, Apple has fixed one of the more glaring issues with Liquid Glass, its divisive new user interface design for the iPhone, iPad, and other Apple devices, announced earlier this month at its WWDC 2025. The refreshed user interface modernizes the operating system’s look and feel with a design system inspired by the optical qualities of glass, including the way it refracts light and its translucency. However, early iOS 26 testers, somewhat unfairly, were quic

Apple tweaks Control Center visibility in iOS 26 beta 2

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2026-02-26 23:59:50

Apple was quick to address what was by far one of the biggest complaints from the first iOS 26 developer beta: Control Center contrast. With beta 2, released earlier today, Apple seems to have tweaked it for better visibility. When Apple introduced the new Control Center UI at WWDC25, the overall design direction looked promising, thanks to the broader Liquid Glass UI overhaul. But there was one glaring usability issue: contrast. In beta 1, many noted that opening Control Center would often le

In a letter sent to xAI on Tuesday, lawyers from the Southern Environmental Law Center (SELC) notified xAI of the NAACP's intent to sue in 60 days if xAI refuses to meet to discuss the groups' concerns that xAI is not using the re

U.S. giants Microsoft and Amazon are investing billions to snatch up land in the increasingly water-stressed territory with the aim of building data centers, which typically use many millions of liters of water a year. The Spanish and regional governments are ecstatic. The country’s former digital minister celebrated Amazon’s decision to move in last year, boasting that Spain is “at the forefront of technology innovation and Artificial Intelligence in Europe.” It goes hand-in-hand with the Euro

JOHOR BAHRU, Malaysia (AP) — Winson Lau has always had contingency plans. But he wasn’t prepared for data centers. Lau relies on water and electricity to operate his thriving export business in Malaysia’s Johor province, where he raises a kaleidoscope of tropical fish in rows of aquariums, including albino fish with red spots that can fetch up to $10,000 from collectors. His contingency plans in the event of an outage involve an intricate system of purifying wastewater through friendly bacteria
