Sustainable Energy Storage and Production

The present proposal aims to study and develop new materials (mostly in nanometer scale) that allow the production and storage of clean and sustainable energy. It aims to investigate and develop a wide range of new materials and devices for sustainable energy generation free the most part emission of pollutant. Among them, we can exemplify materials with the potential to develop photovoltaic systems, solar cells, photo (catalysts), fuel cells with different operating temperatures, batteries, biofuels, bio-batteries, biodevices and others.
The success of this proposal could have a positive impact on reducing dependence on fossil fuels, since the use of these new materials or technologies may provide an alternative, sustainable and clean energy, decreasing the environmental impacts and providing a higher quality of life for society.
Finally, from an academic / scientific point of view, the multidisciplinary nature of the project can not only contribute to a greater understanding / development of these new materials / new technologies, but also to the formation of more qualified human resources on topics that are at the frontier of scientific knowledge and are considered as strategic themes in the government plans in developed and developing countries.
