New heat-to-electricity tech beats battery storage with 60% efficiency


Scientists develop a revolutionary thermal emitter with 60% efficiency, paving the way for scalable and sustainable energy storage solutions.

With this innovation, “we essentially showed how to achieve the best possible performance for the emitter given realistic, practical design constraints,” Ciril Samuel Prasad, study co-author and graduate student at Rice University, added. “This selective emission, achieved through insights from quantum physics, maximizes energy conversion and allows for higher efficiencies than previously possible,” the study authors note. in Science and PGJMC in Mass Communications, he has been actively working with some of the most innovative brands, news agencies, digital magazines, documentary filmmakers, and nonprofits from different parts of the globe.
