- ‘Thermal batteries’ could efficiently store wind and solar power in a renewable grid: Stored as heat in a bath of molten material, extra energy could be tapped when needed. The result is a TPV tandem that converts 41.1% of the energy emitted from a 2400°C tungsten filament to electricity. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-04473-y 13 comments science
