Our latest #MOST system using curved anthracene’s Dewar isomerization is now on @cenmag news ☀️🔋Thank you @KMothPoulsen and @Diego__Sampedro for nice quotes 😊 Proud of the team! cen.acs.org/energy/solar-p… @cenmag

cen.acs.org Curved molecule bottles sunlight and releases it as heat Liquid anthracene morphs into high-energy isomer to store solar heat for use on demand hours later
