Scientists in South Korea have discovered a way to make all-solid-state batteries safer and more powerful using inexpensive materials. Instead of adding costly metals, they redesigned the battery’s ...

A new material makes lithium batteries longer-lasting and more efficient—great news for electric cars and clean energy storage.

Heating and cooling systems are among the biggest guzzlers of energy, contributing to a vicious cycle of climate change that then drives higher use of heating and cooling. Now engineers at Berkeley ...

Electric cars are widely regarded as our best bet to replace conventional cars with a more environment-friendly alternative. However, electric cars and other electric vehicles will most likely run on ...

Phase-change materials are substances that absorb or release significant latent heat during their phase transitions, typically between solid and liquid states. This characteristic makes them highly ...

Local news reports out of South Korea suggest that Hyundai is planning to reveal its first solid-state battery pack in March. A pilot production line has reportedly been built at its research center, ...

Incorporating a phase-change material into concrete, researchers have created a self-heating material that can melt snow and ice for up to 10 hours without using salt or shovels. The novel material ...
