A research team from Penn State has broken a 165-year-old law of thermal radiation with unprecedented strength, setting the ...

It is possible to make a material absorb more radiation than it has to re-emit, violating the laws of physics in a way that ...

Researchers in Australia are working on a way to lower the cost of producing solar thermal energy by as much as 40% with the help of shatterproof rear-view mirrors originally designed for cars.

This approach, called aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES), uses naturally occurring groundwater or aquifers for long-term storage of thermal energy that can be used to assist the heating and ...

Brenmiller Energy is among the most experienced players in thermal energy storage. The company, founded in 2011, makes modular systems that use crushed rocks to store heat.
