You could soon power wearable devices
using just your body heat, thanks to a new flexible super capacitor that can charge itself using heat from the surroundings – without any external power supply or battery
replacement. Researchers have developed a new concept of electrical energy storage – Thermally
Chargeable Solid-state Supercapacitor. This innovative supercapacitor allows charging to be completed using heat energy in
addition to the traditional electrical charging method for capacitors.
