Experimental evidences of the direct influence of external magnetic fields on the mechanism of the electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction

The use of magnetic fields as external stimuli to improve the kinetics of electrochemical reactions is attracting substantial attention, given their potential to reduce energy losses. Despite recent reports showing a positive effect on catalytic performance upon applying a magnetic field to a working electrode, there are still many uncertainties and a lack of experimental evidence correlating the presence of the magnetic field to the electrocatalytic performance.

Recent advances of spectrally selective absorbers: Materials, nanostructures, and photothermal power generation

The growth of photothermal technologies—especially concentrated solar power and solar thermoelectric generators—has sharply increased demand for high-performance spectrally selective absorbers. These absorbers improve solar-energy use by capturing sunlight strongly while minimizing infrared heat loss.

Permanent-magnet-based transverse thermoelectric generator with high fill factor driven by anomalous Nernst effect

The researchers built and characterized an anomalous-Nernst transverse thermoelectric generator intended to deliver high-density power without an external magnetic field. Alternating permanent magnets with high coercivity and opposite Nernst responses creates a thermopile that raises voltage and power without inactive electrode layers.

Ancillary services from wind and solar energy in modern power grids: A comprehensive review and simulation study

Renewable energy sources like wind and solar have increased demand for surplus power capacity. The demand is primarily fueled by the growing impact of forecasting errors associated with these intermittent energy sources. Implementing advanced control methods for automatic generation control (AGC) is essential to integrate wind and solar power with conventional generation sources to balance the power system and reduce reliance on traditional reserves.

Overview of preparation for the American WAKE ExperimeNt (AWAKEN)

The AWAKEN project is a multi-institutional field campaign collecting key observations of interactions between wind farms and the atmosphere. These interactions create substantial uncertainty in models used to predict wind-plant performance before construction and during operation, which can reduce profitability.-caprolactone) (PCL), and the solid polymer electrolytes consisting of lithium bis(oxalate)borate (LiBOB) together with PTMC or PCL has been determined using PES at a photoelectron kinetic energy of 8.7 keV.
