The heat pump’s compressor is never going to be 100 percent efficient, for example. Gunning for towering SCOPs and reaching towards the Carnot limit is all well and good—but obsessing over ...

Using heat pumps based on solid-state phase transitions is a more eco-friendly approach, but their energy efficiency remains only 50–70% of the Carnot limit. Achieving more efficient and eco ...

The underlying concept was studied over a century ago. Researchers discover breakthrough material that sounds like something ...

The proposed approach reportedly increases the energy efficiency ... on the the heat pump-organic rankine cycle, scientists in Portugal have created six different models of Carnot batteries ...

Based on the the heat pump-organic rankine cycle, scientists in Portugal have created six different models of Carnot batteries ... a tradeoff between round-trip efficiency and the levelized ...

The Carnot lab is a facility where TNO, in cooperation with the industry, develops concepts for sustainable industrial heat management and leads the way towards implementation. This involves ...

Landlords are being warned against installing heat pumps amid fears they do not make homes more efficient on paper. Property investors must boost their energy performance certificate (EPC ...

A shift in incentives to whole-home heat pumps prompts questions about cost and vulnerability in power outages. FREEPORT — Maine’s quasi-state agency that promotes energy efficiency says the ...
