Benchmarking progress is essential to a successful transition. The World Economic Forum''s Energy Transition Index, which ranks 115 economies on how well they balance energy security and access with environmental sustainability and affordability, shows that the biggest challenge facing energy transition is the lack of readiness among …
In a photo-thermo-electric system, solar energy is first converted into heat and then into electrical energy, which has attracted much attention. However, the heat of the cold side of a thermoelectric generator (TEG) is generally removed by an air-cooling or water-cooling technology without being fully utilized, resulting in a low solar energy …
