Researchers develop a paper-thin loudspeaker

The flexible, thin-film device has the potential to make any surface into a low-power, high-quality audio source. MIT engineers have developed a paper-thin loudspeaker that can turn any surface into…

Reversible fuel cells can support grid economically

A major challenge for producers of electricity from solar panels and wind turbines is akin to capturing lightning in a bottle. Both solar and wind increasingly generate electricity amid little…

POWDERscreen monitors streams of powder into the laser melt

Measuring system opens up new perspectives for additive manufacturing. Additive manufacturing processes continue to grow in the automotive, aerospace and other industries. When complex components or unique parts need to…

Lasers for hydrogen technology

Fraunhofer ILT inaugurates new research platform. The success of the energy transition is closely linked to continued research into hydrogen technologies. A major goal of Fraunhofer ILT is to make…

A new heat engine with no moving parts is as efficient as a steam turbine

The design could someday enable a fully decarbonized power grid, researchers say. Engineers at MIT and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have designed a heat engine with no moving…

Converting solar energy to electricity on demand

The researchers behind an energy system that makes it possible to capture solar energy, store it for up to eighteen years and release it when and where it is needed…
