Solar power, for all its advantages, doesn't come in the form of fuel( 燃料), which means it can’t be
stored easily. That could soon change, however, after a development of a fuel that can get and store the
sun's energy, and scientists say this fuel can store that energy for up to 18 years.
Call it "sunlight in a bottle". Researchers in Sweden have discovered a specialized fluid （液体）that
works like a Rechargeable battery （可充电电池). Shine sunlight on it, and the fluid traps it. Then that
energy can be released (释放) as heat. It could be how we power our homes by 2030.
It's very simple. The fluid reacts to the presence of sunlight by rearranging its carbon and nitrogen,
which can turn into a space that "traps" the energy from the sunlight. Amazingly, this energy content is
preserved even after the fluid itself cools down to room temperature.
“A solar thermal fuel is like a rechargeable battery, but instead of electricity,we put sunlight in and get
heat out," explained Jeffrey Grossman, who works on the project. "We have tested the fluid through as
many as 125 times, and we found that it could not lose much space over many uses.
The most direct application of the technology will be for domestic heating systems, such as powering a
family's water heater and clothes dryer. It's very energy efficient for families. And because the energy
comes in the form of fuel, it can be stored and used even when the sun isn't shining. It should even be
possible to transport the energy through pipes or trucks.
If all goes as planned---and it seems to be going better than planned so far—researchers think that the
technology could be available for business use within a decade.
4. What is special about the fluid?
A. It can release energy when being heated.
B. It can be used to charge up the battery.
C. It can replace other kinds of fuels.
D. It can turn the sunlight into heat.
