Imagine if you could heat or cool your home just by plucking the desired comfort level out of the air. Israeli startup ThermoTerra can.

Novel engine converts heat to electricity with over 40 percent efficiency — a performance better than that of traditional steam turbines.

Both hot and cold environments trigger a stress response in the human body and can lead to cardiovascular problems, new research finds.

With energy prices rising rapidly, a new startup could have the answer - technology that harnesses energy from fluctuations in humidity.

Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed an ultrathin, gold-based transparent coating that is able to convert sunlight into heat.

Their new demonstrations show that it converts heat to electricity with over 40 percent efficiency a performance better than steam turbines.

A single-atom-thin material that has been coined “white graphene” for its transparent appearance and its similarity to carbon-based graphene

Researchers design a transparent window coating that could lower the temperature inside buildings, without expending a single watt of energy

The energy systems that power our lives also produce wasted heat—like heat that radiates off hot water pipes in buildings and exhaust pipes.

A new nanophotonic material has broken records for high-temperature stability, potentially ushering in more efficient electricity production

Textile engineers have developed a fabric woven out of ultra-fine nano-threads made in part of phase-change materials and other substances.

MIT researchers say cubic boron arsenide is the best semiconductor material ever found, and maybe the best possible one.

A new flexible thermoelectric generator can wrap around pipes and other hot surfaces and convert wasted heat into electricity.
