One of the world鈥檚 most pressing challenges is the need for clean, sustainable energy. We have a limited timescale to implement sustainable energy solutions at a global scale to mitigate potentially catastrophic climate change and pollution.
Further, millions of people around the planet still lack access to reliable electricity. In 2015, the UN announced 17 Sustainable Development Goals, with Goal 7 - Affordable and Clean Energy for all 鈥� aiming to ensure universal clean energy for everyone by 2030.
To meet the energy challenge, there is a need for scientific and technological breakthroughs and advances with a clear pathway to real-world impact. Researchers around the world are responding, investigating sustainable and clean molecular and materials systems for energy generation and storage.
In this landmark Cell Symposium, 鈥淣ew Materials for Energy Applications,鈥� leading international experts will come together to present and discuss the latest fundamental and applied research breakthroughs, spanning conceptual advances and outstanding performance results, in topics which include but are not limited to:
Solar Energy Conversion
Nanocatalysis
Gas Storage and Activation (CO2, H2, Natural Gas)
