Laboratory tests have shown it to reflect up to 99 percent of solar radiation back into space. If it pans out, the "cooling glass" could be a promising way to lower temperatures across Earth ...

According to the authors, the device could provide 10.1 Kelvin (K) of cooling to the skin during hot days but also keep the body 3.2 K warmer than bare skin in the dark or at night.

They investigated photovoltaic heating and cooling with variations in module height, row spacing, angle, and wind. Raising the height of solar cells and increasing the spacing between panel rows ...

The development in Manor taps into the natural heat deep underground to run heating and cooling systems for the planned 7,500 ...

International researchers led by KAUST have developed a new cooling technology that improves the power and longevity of solar ...

Simulations revealed that the annual energy-saving efficiency of the CV-ASHP system is 12.00%, the VC-ASHP system is 13.11% and the VV-ASHP system is 24.13%. The energy-saving efficiency of the ...

They presented their findings in t” Towards a 100% renewable energy share for heating and cooling in office buildings with solar and geothermal energy,” which was recently published in Solar ...

Heating and cooling space habitats isn’t easy – one engineering team is developing a lighter, more efficient solution News By Issam Mudawar published 25 September 2023 ...

Heat pumps are heating/cooling systems that are much cheaper to run than air conditioning and a furnace but cost more upfront. Installing one can run between $600 to $20,000 depending on the type ...
