The sensitized thermal cell (STC) is a battery that can convert heat directly into electric power at low environmental temperatures (100°C or lower). It can be buried in the ground and generate electricity directly from the Earth’s crust. This STC was originally suggested by the authors in 2017 (Mater. Horiz., 2017,4, 649-656), and media in different continents and countries, including Europa, the United States, Asia, Arab, and Africa, reported the STC as a sensational technique that can directly affect the oil price. The most valuable feature of the STC is, after the electricity generation was stop, the reaction could restart with a simple flip of an on/off switch in the external circuit after the electricity generation was stopped. These batteries could be, for example, buried in a geothermal spot and work as a power plant.
