Increasing the thermal efficiency of fossil power plants is a promising way to decrease fuel consumption and emissions and minimise global climate change. A new steel alloy promises to do just that for major global benefits.
Meeting the world's growing energy demand in a sustainable way is one of the main challenges of the 21st century. While increasing the use of renewable energy resources such as wind and solar is an important objective, such systems cannot replace the combustion of fossil fuels completely due to their variable nature.
