The alarming increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, primarily attributed to human-induced fossil fuel combustion for power generation, underscores the urgency for sustainable solutions. The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a promising candidate for ...

Data centers are large electricity consumers due to the high consumption needs of servers and their cooling systems. With the rapid growth of crypto-currency and artificial intelligence, their electricity consumption is expected to increase substantially. ...

Decarbonizing China's energy system requires both greening the power supply and electrifying end-use sectors. However, concerns exist that electrification may increase emissions while coal power dominates. Using a global climate model, we explore electrifi ...

This study examines a novel Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) cogeneration system powered by liquefied natural gas integrating realistic and flexible heat management to support efficient maritime applications. With a nominal power capacity of 125 kW, the SOFC-b ...

As one of the largest industrial emitters, today's refineries must take action to reduce emissions in response to global climate change and net -zero targets. However, the decarbonization of refineries is complex due to the diverse range of processes invol ...

The regulation of energy in the brain has garnered substantial attention in recent years due to its significant implications in various disorders and aging. The brain’s energy metabolism is a dynamic and tightly regulated network that balances energy deman ...

High entropy materials (HEMs) are highly effective as a catalyst and can be synthesized by facile methods. Here, we discuss recent advancements in HEMs for Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), Oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and Oxygen reduction reaction (O ...

In light of Switzerland’s 2050 energy goals, the nation aims to boost its domestic hydroelectric output, notably focusing on small-scale hydroelectric power plants. Concurrently, there is an effort to renovate hydroelectric plants to make them more environ ...

This paper first designs a holistic coordination framework between transmission system operator (TSO) and distribution system operators (DSOs) to modernize traditional top-to-down (from transmission system to distribution systems) power flexibility provisi ...

The integration of various power sources, including renewables and electric vehicles, into smart grids is expanding, introducing uncertainties that can result in issues like voltage imbalances, load fluctuations, and power losses. These challenges negative ...

Scalable and sustainable photovoltaic technologies require low-cost and earth-abundant semiconducting materials. Zinc phosphide is purported to be an absorber material with optimal photovoltaic properties. Herein we report the electrical properties of Zn3P ...

Distributed rooftop photovoltaics (PV) is one of the pillars of the energy transition yet their widespread integration strains grids, leading to over-voltage, reverse power flow, and infrastructure strain. Furthermore, increased PV self-consumption reduces ...

Respiratory infectious diseases (RIDs) are generally spread through person-to-person contact. The human oral cavity, in particular, is a significant source of particles that can cause RIDs. Electric toothbrushes, popular for oral cleaning in recent years, ...
