SuNEC 2014 - Book of Abstract #45894

Featuring eminent speakers Ranjit Koodali (University of South Dakota), Michael Detty (University of New York at Buffalo), Francesco Meneguzzo (CNR), and Jesper Jacobsson (Uppsala University), the SuNEC 2014 Book of Abstract furthers demonstrate the impact of the advances in solar energy science and technology. Held yearly in Sicily since 2011, SuNEC has rapidly emerged as one of Europe's premiere meetings in solar energy and clean technology. Leaf-like photosynthetic materials; clean antifouling coatings; sustainability of electric cars; solar water splitting reaching beyond 10% solar-to-hydrogen efficiency; new physicochemical clean routes for abating pollution in water; affordable solar energy solutions for rural Africa. These are only selected examples of the topics of the new Sun New Energy Conference held in Sicily, September 8-9, 2014.
