Scientists develop ‘smart paint’ that reflects 97% of sunlight and could reduce AC use during heatwaves |

As heatwaves become more frequent and intense around the world, scientists are exploring new ways to keep buildings cool without increasing energy consumption. Researchers at the University of Sydney, working with startup Dewpoint Innovations, have developed a nano-engineered coating that reflects up to 97% of sunlight and stays significantly cooler than conventional surfaces. The experimental…

Saudi Arabia’s scientists create NESCOD: A cooling system that works without electricity even in extreme heat

Researchers at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in Saudi Arabia have introduced NESCOD, a new passive cooling technology. This innovative system addresses the rising global need for cooling solutions without depending on energy-consuming air conditioners. Mechanically, NESCOD leverages the thermodynamic properties of endothermic dissolution to offer an eco-friendly alternative for communities that are…
