Curved molecules that absorb sunlight, store the energy, and re-release it as heat are pushing the boundaries in solar thermal storage technology. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech ...
The sun can provide limitless heat for buildings and industrial processes. But using that heat on demand means capturing and storing solar thermal energy for when the sun isn’t shining. Researchers ...
Concentrated solar power (CSP) is a growing form of clean energy that currently produces about 3.5 gigawatts worth of power across the world, enough to power two million homes. This alternate form of ...
“The better researchers understand what happens to sunlight when it hits Earth, the better they can estimate its effects on climate. Part of this means creating reliable models of what happens when ...
Curved molecules that absorb sunlight, store the energy, and re-release it as heat are pushing the boundaries in solar thermal storage technology. The anthracene systems, derived from a by-product of ...
