Grace Hahn's research, MOST technology, can store the sun's heat not directly as electricity, but chemically inside molecules. The molecules change in sunlight to "lock" the energy, and then when a specific trigger is given, that energy is converted into heat. This makes it possible to store energy for a long time without carbon emissions, and it can even be used in the future to heat homes or other purposes.
