Energy storage & conversion materials are a hot topic. Chemistry and materials science are playing a leading role in developing more powerful and long-lasting batteries, solar panels, fuel cells, biologically derived fuels, and other energy-related technology to power an increasingly crowded planet. It's also an imperative to reduce emissions and process by-products for environmental sustainability, while simultaneously managing costs. This webcast will cover the application of computational methods to developing innovative materials for energy production, storage, and conversion.
In this webinar, you will learn:
• How virtual screening can be used to develop improved batteries, fuel cells, and biofuels
• How informatics and workflow management complement molecular modeling in alternative energy research
• How high-throughput computation can accelerate the pace of materials discovery
