J27.00004: Science for Sustainable Energy: Recommendations of the 2010 BESAC Report
Invited Speaker:
Alexis Malozemoff
In August 2010, DOE's Basic Energy Sciences Advisory Committee issued a
major report on Science for Energy Technology. The report identified
opportunities for science to help overcome roadblocks to progress in
emerging clean energy technologies and thus to have much needed near-term
impact on our energy infrastructure. The report covered diverse areas
including solar electricity from photovoltaics, advanced nuclear energy,
carbon sequestration, electrochemical energy storage, power grid
technologies including power electronics and superconductors, solid state
lighting, biofuels, building efficiency, fuel cells and wind power. In
addition, mechanisms were suggested to facilitate progress, in particular,
by strengthening the link between basic research and industry. The talk will
review the highlights of this report. [Preview Abstract] |
