巨大的低品位热量（即，1 mV/K），效率高，成本低。在TREC中，通过在不同温度下对电化学电池进行充电-放电来实现向电力的转换。在这个视角中，我们将讨论TREC的原理和最新进展，如新的材料体系和机制。更重要的是，我们将对该领域的挑战和未来方向发表意见，包括基本理解，材料设计和系统工程。
Tremendous low-grade heat (i.e., 1 mV/K), high efficiency, and low cost. In TREC, conversion to electricity is realized by charging-discharging an electrochemical cell at different temperatures. In this Perspective, we will discuss the principle of TREC and recent progress, such as new material systems and mechanisms. More importantly, we will give our opinions on the challenges and future directions of this field, including fundamental understanding, material design, and system engineering.
