Decarbonising heating and cooling technologies is not just a critical step in tackling climate change — it’s a market opportunity.
Join us for a talk on 5 December with J&E Hall Gold Medal winner, Professor Yulong Ding, exploring cutting-edge solutions to some of the biggest challenges such as the potential for phase change materials for thermal energy storage and liquid air energy storage for the cold chain.
The presentation will be based on the last three decades of innovation in thermomechanical energy conversation and storage.
