Swiss startup Sun-Ways installed 48 photovoltaic panels between active tracks in Buttes, canton Neuchâtel, in April 2025. One year and 11,000 train passes later, the plant has produced 16,000 kWh, required no special maintenance, and caused no safety issues. If rolled out across Switzerland's 5,320-km network, the technology could generate 1 TWh a year.

La startup suiza Sun-Ways instaló 48 paneles fotovoltaicos entre las vías activas de Buttes, cantón de Neuchâtel, en abril de 2025. Un año y 11.000 trenes después, la planta ha producido 16.000 kWh, sin mantenimiento especial ni incidentes de seguridad. El gestor de infraestructura ferroviaria italiana negocia ahora un proyecto piloto. Desplegada en toda la red suiza de 5.320 km, la tecnología podría generar 1 TWh al año.

Researchers have developed a one-step process that converts existing plastics into a new material that degrades significantly faster. The method replaces oxygen atoms with sulfur in the plastic's structure, weakening its molecular bonds. Published in Chem Circularity, the process is described as easily scalable to industrial quantities.
