Advanced Energy Systems
The Advanced Energy Systems Research Super Group conducts fundamental and applied research to advance the next generation of energy technologies. Our work synthesizes core mechanical engineering principles to address challenges in energy conversion, storage, and utilization. Research spans multiple scales, from atomistic and material-level modeling to component development, system integration, and techno-economic and life-cycle analysis.
