In order to mitigate climate change and provide secure energy supplies in a future of limited fossil-fuel production, society must transition to a low-carbon economy. Clean primary electricity generation, from solar, wind, hydroelectric, or other sources, is technologically proven and increasingly cost competitive with fossil-fuelled systems. Much more challenging is the development of technologies to store this clean primary energy at high energy densities for long-term backup and long-distance renewable-energy trade, or to fuel heavy-duty vehicles and machinery, including long-distance trucks and ships. My group is researching all possible alternative fuel options to address this urgent need.

为了减缓气候变化，在化石燃料生产有限的未来提供安全的能源供应，社会必须向低碳经济过渡。清洁的一次发电，来自太阳能、风能、水力发电或其他来源，经过技术验证，与化石燃料系统相比，成本竞争力越来越强。更具挑战性的是开发技术，以高能量密度储存这种清洁的一次能源，用于长期备用和长途可再生能源贸易，或为重型车辆和机械提供燃料，包括长途卡车和轮船。我的小组正在研究所有可能的替代燃料选择，以满足这一紧迫需求。
