Soaring energy costs, emergence of new technologies, and an ever-increasing awareness of harmful emissions**from burning of fossil fuels for electricity generation have necessitated an urgent need for more abundant and**less polluting sources of energy. Renewable energy technologies offer alternatives to conventional**technologies; however, their intermittent nature has limited their widespread penetration into the electricity**market. Electrochemical energy storage devices such as rechargeable batteries and ultra-capacitors have been**identified as critical enabling technologies for advanced, reliable and cost-effective energy storage.**Nano-engineered materials and coatings have attracted the attention of industrial and scientific communities**because of their unique physical, chemical and catalytic properties and their impact has nowhere been more**pronounced than in the field of energy conversion and storage. The proposed continuation of the Industrial**Research Chair for Colleges (IRCC) program at Lambton College in 'Advanced Nano-Engineered Material**Development for Conversion, Storage and Integration of Renewable Energy' will continue and expand the**applied research program on development of advanced, affordable materials for the energy sector as well as**conducting business-oriented research in energy system design, optimization and integration.**Currently, there are six (6) confirmed local and regional SME partners committed to collaborate on multiple**industry-driven research projects and is anticipated to grow the program by initiating new partnerships and by**expanding the collaborative work with the current partners in the course of the IRCC program. The proposed**program will create a conducive teaching environment to train highly qualified personnel, at least paid and**unpaid fifty students, and five recent graduates in the next five years.**The IRCC program and its project outcomes can have significant positive impacts on local economy and the**environment through skilled job creation, development of high-value commodities in the form of new products**and processes, and substantial reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and other harmful pollutants.

能源成本的飙升、新技术的出现以及人们对燃烧化石燃料发电产生的有害排放物的日益认识，使得人们迫切需要更丰富、污染更少的能源。可再生能源技术提供了传统技术的替代品;然而，其间歇性限制了其对电力市场的广泛渗透。可充电电池和超级电容器等电化学能量存储设备已被确定为先进、可靠和具有成本效益的能量存储的关键技术。纳米工程材料和涂层由于其独特的物理、化学和催化性能而引起了工业和科学界的关注，其影响在能源转换和储存领域最为显著。拟议的继续在兰顿学院的工业 ** 研究主席（IRCC）计划在“先进的纳米工程材料 ** 开发转换，存储和可再生能源的集成”将继续和扩大 ** 应用研究计划在能源部门开发先进的，负担得起的材料，以及 ** 在能源系统设计，优化和集成进行面向企业的研究。目前，有六（6）个确认的地方和区域中小企业合作伙伴致力于在多个 ** 行业驱动的研究项目上进行合作，预计将通过启动新的合作伙伴关系和 ** 扩大与IRCC计划过程中现有合作伙伴的合作来发展该计划。拟议的 ** 计划将创造一个有利的教学环境，培养高素质的人才，至少有50名有薪和无薪的学生，以及5名最近的毕业生在未来五年。IRCC计划及其项目成果可以通过创造熟练的就业机会，以新产品和工艺的形式开发高价值商品，以及大幅减少温室气体（GHG）排放和其他有害污染物，对当地经济和环境产生重大的积极影响。
