from solar panels on the roof rather than from fossil fuels from the national grid. now, all of that will rely on having a weather monitoring station outside the property, which can precisely alter the home's energy use depending on the conditions. now, this is actually a show home for a development which is going to be called brobyholm and which is currently being built about 100km west of stockholm, and which will have 500 homes by 2025 and, all being well, a further 1,500 by 2028. the vision for this smart community is for houses whose solar cells are capturing a lot of sunlight, but not using it, to share the electricity generated with their neighbours who do need it. thus reducing the load on the national grid.

now, as nathan said earlier, one of the problems with smart home devices has been that they traditionally all come with their own apps. so getting them all working together has been, um, one for the enthusiasts, shall we say? samsung is aiming to simplify that by allowing anything from any manufacturer to connect to its smartthings app. this, incidentally, is the new home—view screen, which will be launched in europe in early 202a. smartthings is an open platform that currently interfaces with 350 brands and which any manufacturer can hook into. sounds very altruistic, but, of course, bringing all devices into samsung's ecosystem is no bad thing for the company, either. if your device allows for lots of controls and returns lots of information, all of this should be available through the app, which means you can keep an eye on your dinner if your oven has a pizza cam, for example. and whose doesn't? you're providing a free platform, you're collecting data,

so i think a question that people would have is, if i connect my stuff to this platform, and each device offers up some information, whether it's about the temperature i like it or whether it's about when i use the fridge most, is that information collected by samsung 7 no. so that would reside within the individual manufacturers. so, for example, if you had...if you had a health device that was by a certain manufacturer, and that had all your vital statistics on it, that data isn't then transferred to samsung smartthings. the data that will be transferred to samsung smartthings isjust the interaction between the devices. is it connected, is it not? etc, etc. smarter living will require us to share more, both in energy and in data. and when this development is complete, we'll see whether enough people want to make use of the full facilities being promised.

we've talked for a long time about living in smarter homes, in more—efficient homes, with less reliance on older energy sources. this will be one step towards it. were they your pyjamas?! that was actually a smart shirt. but in hindsight, it does look like pyjamas, i agree. sorry, yeah, it does. a bit. we saw there how communities in the future may be able to generate their own renewable energy. now, that could come in the form of solar panels or maybe wind power. yeah. the problem, though, is that neither sunshine nor the wind can be guaranteed at any particular point. certainly if you're trying to harness wind power near buildings, well, that comes with its own set of problems. step forward a new type of wind turbine that alasdair keane has been checking out. these turbines are a familiar sight around the world, but when it comes to collecting wind for power closer to the ground and nearer infrastructure, there are problems.

but one of the reasons - is that they constantly look in the wrong direction, i because the wind changes so quickly that they can't actually keep up with it, i so they never perform as they could do if they were pointing _ in the right direction. and that's one of the reasons why theyjust don't pay back. - step in katrick technologies and a new type of power generator they have at prototype stage that's already attracting attention. so our wind panels are very unique, and as part of our innovation - and proprietary technology, you know, there's onshore, i offshore wind, as we've seen in lots of other. different wind technologies. but the key difference between us i is we don't rotate, we oscillate. i so our current design is a hexagon. we've got six ducts - and we have a 60—degrees movement with our aerofoils, i and we pick up smaller pockets of wind in urban locations - and we convert that as smaller pockets of energy into electricity.

they've been testing this technology at wind tunnels and they're getting confident they have tech that could be on the market soon. wind rumbles. you've been crunching the numbers around this. are you confident it will make a difference? oh, i am fairly confident that - if the nuts and bolts work, that it has really potential to deliver. it's never going to compete with big wind turbines or big wind farms. - but it's one really attractive solution for a company - or organisation like an airport, hospital, factory, to reduce i their electricity bill— and reduce their carbon emissions. and airports are among those interested in using the tech. edinburgh airport has already

embarked on a project to bring in solar power. they'd like to harness wind power, too, but conventional wind turbines present a big problem. air traffic control look at itl and think it's an aeroplane. so what we've had to do is try and find a wind - turbine that doesn't turn. actually, the opportunity- there is it actually supplements and complements to what we're doing i with solar, because during the day, i the sun shines, but the wind blows all the time. - for the airport, wind could account for 25% of their energy needs. so this space is an 800m stretch all along the fence line. - airside, of course, - so very good for security. and that's effectively - where we would like to put the katrick wind turbines. you think about it, 70% of the time lthe wind is going in this direction, | and therefore that's perfect for those turbines. - you've placed an order for 300 of something that doesn't actually quite exist yet. you must be confident it will work. i'm very confidentj in the technology. it is a soft order at the moment. we would obviously like to make it

a hard order, but i'm very- confident in the technology. the challenge now is taking the tech from the prototype stage to technology that can be sold around the globe. so we will be looking - for multiple partners that can have the capability to deploy that in all parts of the world. - there are lots of companies interested in what you're doing. airports have put in soft orders. are you under pressure to deliver it? there is, yes. one of the biggest challenges that we have, from engagingl with the end users, is everyone we've spoken to from the uk, i europe and around the world is — how do we get this technology. yesterday? so we're staying very focused - and the team is working really hard | to deliver our milestones and then| obviously find the right commercial partners to then fast track that kind of development and bring| in our new technology to market. renewable energy is essential in reaching net zero targets, so harnessing all the power that the wind offers is vital. it seems likely you might be seeing one of these ground wind power generators near you sometime sooi'i.

and that's it for the short cut of this week's click. the full version is waiting for you right now on iplayer. thanks for watching, more from us next week. see you. hi, i'm ellis with the catch up. tonight, scottish gender laws, a time travelling teen and shane macgowan�*s funeral. our top story. judges have said the uk government acted lawfully in blocking changes to gender identity laws in scotland. the changes would have made it easier for people to change their legally recognised

gender and were passed by the scottish parliament last year. but the uk government blocked them over fears they would impact equality laws across the uk. the scottish government has 21 days to decide whether it wants to appeal the decision. some other stories now. an australian man who died after being buried in sand on a beach. josh taylor, who was 23, fell into a hole reported to have been to roast a pig in queensland. police there are investigating what happened. a man who was expelled from secondary school as a teenager has returned as a governor. dwayne williams has been credited with helping to turn around the fortunes of colton hills community school in wolverhampton. and meet the teen who lives like it's the 1940s. cam grubb lives in kirkcaldy, scotland and is only 19, but nearly everything he owns is from eight decades ago, including his clothes

and his phone. he says it's gone beyond an obsession. time now to leave you with 10 seconds of shane macgowan. crowds in dublin lined the streets earlier for the pogues singer's funeral procession, which went on to county tipperary for mass with guests, including bono and johnny depp. you're all caught up. bye for now. have a good weekend. hello there. it's going to be quite a mixed bag for us this weekend. not a wash—out. there will be some sunshine at times, but that's going to come in between two spells of rain that are coming in from the atlantic. atlantic, that means it's going to be mild, but saturday looks like it could be quite windy for many places. now, one part of the country sensitive to more rain is dorset, where we've got a number of flood warnings already and there could be 20—30 millimetres of rain here.

you can keep up to date with the flood warnings online. we could see the risk of flooding increasing this weekend with more rain moving in. and this is the rain that's heading in at the moment from the southwest. we've got this rain still across scotland leftover from earlier on that is moving northwards. allowing that rain to come in from the southwest and usher in some milder air as well as some stronger winds as well. so for many parts, it's going to be a wet start. and because of that, we're looking at a mild start to saturday, no frost this time. you can see the extent of the rain across england and wales and northern ireland. it's going to move northwards and eastwards. could be quite heavy for a while. for england and wales, we should eventually see some sunshine coming in from the west. the odd shower but rain could return to northern ireland, and it looks quite cloudy for scotland with some rain from time to time. mild though temperatures 8—9 in scotland to a high of iii in the southeast with some late sunshine. it's going to turn quite windy through the day, though, across england and wales and northern ireland, gales quite widely, and around some irish sea coasts the winds could be

gusting 60—70 miles an hour. now, those winds will tend to ease overnight and the rain will continue for a while across scotland and northern england. and then as that move through, we've got the next band of rain just approaching the far southwest by sunday morning. again, it should be frost free temperatures, six or seven degrees. and it's almost a repeat performance, really, on sunday. this band of rain moves in a little later, but it's not going to be quite as heavy. shouldn't last as long. and again, we'll get some sunshine coming in after the rain for england and wales. more rain returns to northern ireland and still cloud and patchy rain left over in scotland. temperatures not quite so high, but it's probably not going to be quite as windy. should be a reasonably mild start to next week. there's still some rain around from time to time. it does turn drier as the week goes on, but it does turn a little chillier.

live from washington. this is bbc news the united states rejects a un resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in gaza. vladmir putin says he's running for a fifth term as russian president. his announcement comes amid renewed violence in ukraine. and pressure builds on the university of pennsylvania president — amid controversy over anti—semitism on college

campuses in the us. hello, i'm helena humprhey. we begin in new york — where an attempt at the united nations to agree on a humanitarian ceasefire in gaza has failed tonight as the us opposed the proposal. despite 13 nations voting for a halt in fighting, the united states' veto means the resolution failed to pass. earlier, the un secretary—general warned that the people of gaza are at breaking point. meanwhile, the palestinian health ministry — in the occupied west bank — says six palestinians have been killed in an israeli raid on al—fara refugee camp. israel says any ceasefire would cement hamas' control of gaza. here's our correspondent nada tawfik in new york, this meeting and vote took place after the secretary—general used a rarely
