Scientists develop 'smart paint' that reflects 97% of sunlight and could reduce AC use during heatwaves

As heatwaves become more frequent and intense around the world, scientists are exploring new ways to keep buildings cool without increasing energy consumption. Researchers at the University of Sydney, working with startup Dewpoint Innovations, have developed a nano-engineered coating that reflects up to 97% of sunlight and stays significantly cooler than conventional surfaces. The experimental "smart paint" is designed to reduce heat absorption, lower indoor temperatures and potentially...
