Energy conversion and storage is a group of technologies that address global needs of clean energy, air, water, and environment. At our breakfast we will have an open discussion on coatings, films and devices on the following topics: Energy Conversion: including fuel cells, and photothermal conversion; Energy Storage: including batteries, hydrogen and hybrid systems; Energy Control and Surface Functionality: including smart windows, low-e coatings, photocatalysis, hydrophobicity, oleophobicity, anti-icing, and light and energy transformation.
