Scientists in Japan have developed a new organic device that can harvest energy from heat. Unlike other thermoelectric generators, this one works at room temperature without a heat gradient. Usually, ...

The key to future technologies can sometimes be found in the past. What Ravi Kishore is working to perfect, for example, has ...

Three kits provide the necessary thermoelectric generators and boost power converters to evaluate energy harvesting for solid-to-air, liquid-to-liquid, and liquid-to-air applications. EverGen kits ...

An international research team led by Australia's RMIT University has fabricated a prototype of a nanofluid-cooled thermoelectric generator (TEG) that uses photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) energy to ...

A Chinese-Swedish research team has developed an energy system that is claimed to be able to store solar energy as chemical energy for up to 18 years. The generator is described as the combination of ...

OTEC technology is now close to practical application with potential projects like Global OTEC's commercial-scale generator planned for 2025. The technology exploits the temperature difference between ...

Solar thermal energy is the process of concentrating sunlight to generate heat, which can be used to generate electricity or heat a home, its water supply and more. Solar thermal energy can be used as ...

The power and transportation sectors tend to dominate headlines when it comes to cutting greenhouse gas (GHG) pollution, but we need to tackle a large and growing emissions source to hit our climate ...
