Takeaways:
- A team at MIT have developed a new passive cooling device for buildings without the use of electricity.
- The system resembles a solar panel and comprises several layers that serve as a reflector, evaporator and insulation.
- Evaporative cooling uses evaporated water to cool hot air, and radiative cooling emits heat directly to outer space rather than the surrounding environment.
