Growth in the demand for cooling in Australia is a main driver for new power stations while global warming adds to cooling and refrigeration needs. This project extends Australia's leading expertise in solar control using nanoparticles into the area of active and passive cooling, enabling cooling at night to temperatures well below ambient, with little or no power and low cost. 'Cool' will be stored simply for use the next day. Our systems also allow efficient and low cost water condensation from the atmosphere. They will be of major benefit to developing countries in warm climate zones. High value products will follow, from paints to low cost cooling technology with energy savings around 50% or more.

澳大利亚冷却需求的增长是新发电站的主要驱动力，而全球变暖增加了冷却和制冷需求。该项目将澳大利亚在太阳能控制方面的领先专业知识扩展到主动和被动冷却领域，使夜间冷却温度远低于环境温度，几乎没有或没有电力，成本低。“酷”将被简单地储存起来供第二天使用。我们的系统还可以从大气中高效、低成本地冷凝水。它们将对气候温暖地区的发展中国家产生重大惠益。高价值的产品将随之而来，从油漆到低成本的冷却技术，节能约50%或更多。
