Europe’s shift toward electric batteries faces a critical challenge: heat management. Even a 2–3 °C rise in an electric vehicle’s battery temperature shortens cycle life by 10–20%, while photovoltaic panels lose ≈0.5% efficiency per °C above 25 °C. Metals and ceramics are conventional thermal condu…
