We tend to think of sunlight as something temporary; here when the sun is up, gone when it moves to the other side of the world. But a new, molecular-scale breakthrough challenges that idea, suggesting a way to capture and store solar energy directly for later use. It could unlock a new path to long-term energy storage for heating homes and providing hot water, without a conventional battery in the equation.
