Energy Efficiency is the global buzzword at present. It corresponds to addressing the losses associated with energy consumption. Before the 1990s, industries were known as the most energy consuming sector followed by transportation. Only in the recent past have governments started considering domestic and commercial sector for energy conservation a...

Thermal energy storage (TES) is a system to store thermal energy. TES can be differentiated into three different categories, namely sensible, latent and thermochemical. The main drivers that propel development of TES system are advancements in material sciences and the emergence of smart thermal grid. Although some of the TES system is already mat...

The process of powering devices by utilizing small amount of energy from one or more ambient energy sources is termed as Energy Harvesting (EH). Energy harvested from the ambient sources can also be captured and stored in a battery for future use. Different types of ambient sources and energy harvesters are being explored for varied applications in...
