Research Themes +
Energy Technologies Area (ETA) researchers are continually building on the strong scientific foundation we have developed over the past 50 years. We address the world’s most pressing climate challenges by bringing to market energy-efficient innovations across the buildings, transportation, and industrial sectors. ETA is at the forefront of developing better batteries for electric vehicles; improving the country's aging electrical grid and innovating distributed energy and storage solutions; developing grid-interactive, efficient buildings; and providing the most comprehensive market and data analysis worldwide for renewable technologies like wind and solar.
Strategic Initiatives +
The Energy Technologies Area (ETA) Strategic Plan is the guiding force for our research and development for the next ten years. It clearly charts a path toward clean-energy solutions and focuses on five detailed Strategic Initiatives. The Plan provides an in-depth look at how ETA is accelerating research to provide affordable, clean energy to all while accomplishing deep, economy-wide decarbonization, looking to avoid a rise in global average temperature while simultaneously developing solutions to increase humanity's resilience to extreme weather volatility.

Bio

Dr. Guanzhi Wang is now working as Postdoctoral Scholar in Energy Conversion Group at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and her reseach interest is water electrolyzer development, including proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis and liquid alkaline water electrolysis. Before join LBNL, Dr. Wang was a doctoral student in Dr. Yang Yang’s group in NanoScience Technology Center, University of Central Florida. She completed her Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in materials science from Shandong University in 2013 and 2016, respectively. Her previous research mainly focused on the design of advanced nanostructured alloy thin films for electrochemical energy storage and conversion technologies, including metal-air batteries, CO2 reduction electrolyzers and lithium-ion batteries. Until now, She has published nearly 20 academic papers as first and co-author in Adv. Mater., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., Nature Energy, Energy Environ. Sci. and Adv. Energy Mater. etc.
