Solid-state cooling has long promised quieter, more compact refrigeration without the climate burden of traditional gases, but the materials have struggled to deliver enough punch in a small footprint ...

Some solid materials can cool down or heat up when pressure is applied or released. This behavior enables cooling and heating ...

Why solid-state is an attractive proposition, in principle. How a new material offers far greater cooling efficiency and overall performance, along with manufacturing ease. The test results achieved ...

With nearly 50 energy storage fires reported globally in the past year, thermal runaway has emerged as the industry's most critical safety challenge. DETROIT, Feb. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Wanxiang ...
