so how this tie in if at all with the article stating cells can reach 50C in burst while providing energy? https://www.newscientist.com/article/2129849-the-energy-gene...

does this give us the upper limit of the sources we can convert?

I am not a scientist but I think there is a problem in the article that you are correctly (IMO) pointing out. It is that the notion of temperature has not the same meaning at molecular level and at macro level.
