Catalysis for Renewable Sources

Renewable energy is energy derived from renewable resources that are generally replenished on a human timescale, such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves, and geothermal heat. Renewable energy sources are widely used to provide energy in four critical areas: electricity generation, air and water heating and cooling, transportation, and rural energy services. Rapid deployment of renewable energy and energy efficiency is resulting in major increases in energy security, mitigation of climate change, and economic benefits. Renewable energy source frameworks are becoming increasingly productive and cost-effective.
