Towards greener storage and transfer of energy - Professor Wojciech Grochala (University of Warsaw, Poland)
IFE Distinguished Visitor Lecture - recorded 31 January 2020 at QUT. While the energy consumption of our world steadily increases at the rate of three per cent per year, fossil fuel resources are steadily consumed, and energy-related geopolitical tensions rise at an alarming rate. Humans inevitably seek alternative energy sources, new methods of storing energy for stationary and mobile applications, and energy savings. This lecture will describe ventures into the world of hydrogen fuel, as well as potential new families of room temperature superconducting materials based on silver (2+) compounds for non-resistant conduction of electric current.
