still waiting for someone to demonstrate a more efficient power transfer solution
You’re in luck. Supercritical CO2 turbines are a thing now, and they’re way more efficient because they don’t involve a phase change.
Got any sources on that? I would love to learn about some new tech in electricity generation.
One facility opened in China a couple weeks ago. I can’t find the article that I read from the other day but this should give you some info
World’s first commercial supercritical carbon dioxide power generator begins operation

A good video on it dropped recently: youtube.com/watch?v=M55XzxjmON0
