Thermal insulation will generate electricity


nansulate.jpgIndustrial Nanotech is developing thermal insulation that will generate electricity. The thin sheets of insulation use the temperature differential that insulation creates as a source for generating electricity. “The fact that there is almost always, day or night and anywhere in the world, a difference between the temperature inside a building and outside a building gives us an almost constant source of energy generation to tap into,” said CEO Stuart Burchill. The company is now designing the first prototype material and filing patents.
