Leading the boom is the photovoltaic (PV) panel, which converts sunlight into electricity using semiconductors. As electric utilities and policymakers seek solutions for storing and dispatching energy on demand, concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP) is once again gaining traction. The closed-loop system has a record 17.5-hour

Charged EVs

SEPTEMBER 27, 2021

In an EV, while using the HVAC won’t detract from the maximum output of the traction motor, it does still demand energy from the battery, so there will be a hit to range. If you want to heat up a space that is cold, there are a number of options, from burning a fuel to directly converting electricity into heat (i.e.

For the first time, the engine’s turbocharger is linked to an electrical machine, which makes it possible to convert the thermal energy of the exhaust gas flow into electric energy—e.g., The first system is the innovative recovery of thermal energy by an electric generator powered by exhaust gases.
