Thermodynamic Bound on Heat-to-Power Conversion [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2018 In systems described by the scattering theory, there is an upper bound, lower than Carnot, on the efficiency of steady-state heat to work conversion at a given output power. We show that interacting systems can overcome such bound and saturate, in the thermodynamic limit, the much more favorable linear-response bound.

Exploiting Power-to-Heat Assets in District Heating Networks to Regulate Electric Power Network
IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid, 2021 New green energy policies are encouraging district heating (DH) companies to exploit heat production by power-to-heat (P2H) assets, e.g., heat pumps (HPs) and electric boilers (EBs). Therefore, they are shifting to exploit these assets in their distribution network besides the traditional central combined heat and power (CHP) units in their production ...
