oa Beyond Oil: Development Of Low-cost Solar Cells to Reduce the Upfront Solar Cost Barrier

We have a key role to play in stimulating advances in economic, environmental and social sectors through accelerating progress in sustainable energy technologies by linking fundamental research to device design, construction and application in industrial scale and services. The energy research program, across many departments at Loughborough University, is multi-disciplinary in nature, facilitated by the Sustainable Research School and other similar research schools across the university. Current work is involved in photovoltaic development, solar hydrogen cells development, CO2 reduction/conversion, energy storage, to IR and visible light switchable windows. This talk highlights these activities.
