energy research
Fuel science investigations
Energy research is scientific investigation aimed at developing new ways to produce, store, distribute, or conserve energy.
The field spans fossil fuels, nuclear power, and renewables like solar and wind.
The university's energy research focuses on battery technology.
Energy research often responds to concerns about climate change, resource depletion, or energy independence.
