Light is absorbed by materials and ultimately becomes heat.
Doesn't everything ultimately become heat?
Yes, that is why it states “this is what peak thermodynamic performance.” In electronics people are taught that no device is 100% efficient because energy is lost as heat. A heater is 100% efficient because everything becomes heat.
