Abstract: The clean energy transition requires access to terawatts of renewably generated electricity and gigatons of sustainably produced fuels. Advances in materials and chemical processes are critically needed to enable the technologies that will deliver both. Toward this end, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) performs a broad array of research focused on the science and development of clean energy technologies. In this presentation, I will talk about NREL's mission as well as our materials and chemical research. Topics include photovoltaics, electrochemical engineering, materials and processing for batteries, membranes for separations, new concepts for low-power computing, and advanced microscopy. I will also highlight ways in which to work with NREL, including internships, postdoc positions and collaborations.
