Nanotechnology insulation to generate electricity

[UPDATE: see the comments for some skepticism about this product.] Normally we only expect insulation to save energy, not generate it. Now a nanotechnology-based coating will move the state-of-the-art to the second category, as brought to our attention by Meridian: U.S. company Industrial Nanotech, Inc. is developing a thermal insulation material that can use the… Continue reading Nanotechnology insulation to generate electricity
