A new solar device generates 15 times more energy: a breakthrough in thermoelectric generators converts solar heat into ...

Across industrial systems, vehicles, and even compact electronics, valuable heat often goes unused, but thermoelectric ...

Scientists are learning how to turn the chill of outer space into a quiet source of electricity, using the night sky itself as a heat sink. By carefully managing how surfaces shed heat after dark, ...

A standard reference thermoelectric module (SRTEM) for objectively measuring thermoelectric module performance has been ...

A “standard reference thermoelectric module (SRTEM)*” for objectively measuring thermoelectric module performance has been ...

Here, the authors develop a moisture-gradient-enhanced ionic thermoelectric generator that achieves high voltage and energy density, demonstrating wearable application for respiration monitoring and ...

A solid-state ionic bilayer generates stable electricity for over 60 hours through spontaneous ion migration alone, ...

The world’s energy demand is rising, and NREL’s ULIS power module could help meet it. Demand for energy worldwide is climbing rapidly, driven in part by power hungry data centers that support ...

Thermoelectrics are materials that can generate electricity from the application of a temperature gradient, or vice versa, through the thermoelectric effect. By exploiting this coupling between ...

The US is looking to tap the nation’s network of large industrial diesel generators used at data centers, big box stores and elsewhere to help curb rising electricity costs and support the surge in ...
