New research from Germany showed that PV-powered heat pumps could require less surface than their solar thermal-driven counterparts in district heating networks. The scientists also found that ...

Since heat pumps are much more efficient than gas powered or electrical resistance technologies, the amount of heating or cooling you get is at least over twice the amount of electrical energy you put ...

After several power fluctuations, MIAA’s engineering team determined that there was a need to recalibrate the airport’s transformer so that even with the high heat index, the breaker would not ...

[Greg’s] been playing around with wearable hacks for quite some time now, and he’s decided to add a new twist for his latest LED light suit (Mk 4) — An ancient NES Power Glove to control it.

Infinity uses nothing but body heat to power a single white LED. It only needs a five-degree temperature difference between the air and your hand to work, so it should be good in pretty much any ...

I cover global energy and climate issues. It’s not just steel manufacturers that are able to use such combined heat and power technologies. It’s also oil and gas processing businesses ...

You might consider heat pumps to be a tantalizing climate solution (they are) and one you could adopt yourself (plenty have). But perhaps you’ve held off on getting one, wondering how much of a ...
