Heat pumps are already among the most efficient technologies for heating and cooling, but a new field known as caloric ...

A startup founded by a material physicist has been working for the past seven years to change the way we cool our food and interior spaces, and it's now taken a big step toward that goal. Here's the ...

Some solid materials can cool down or heat up when pressure is applied or released. This behavior enables cooling and heating technologies that do not rely on climate-damaging refrigerant gases. In ...

A collaborative research team from the Institute of Solid State Physics, the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has discovered a high-energy-density barocaloric ...

Several companies and research teams are in the process of commercializing solid-state cooling technologies. Once several technical challenges are overcome, the technology is expected to provide a ...

Donut Lab has released additional details about the world’s first solid-state electric bike, the Verge TS Pro Gen2. The startup claims to have cracked the code to production-ready solid-state ...

The technology shifts the focus from refrigerant-based systems to hydronics, requiring skills in flow dynamics, pumps, and piping rather than traditional refrigeration techniques Regulatory pressures ...

Imagine an electric vehicle that charges in minutes, travels over 1,200 kilometers on a single charge, and eliminates the risk of battery fires altogether. This isn’t science fiction, it’s the promise ...

Solid state battery power bank technology is gaining attention as a newer alternative to traditional portable charging devices. Unlike conventional models, solid state batteries use a solid ...
