Significant advances in catalysis science are required to develop the alternative energy schemes necessary to break free from our dependence on fossil fuel energy sources. This imperative is particularly important given the rising threat from climate change. This research program is aimed at developing robust, selective and sustainable catalysts for generating fuels from the end products of combustion, reactions driven by renewable energy. Use of abundant first row transition metals is absolutely necessary in order to carry these transformations at the scales required to power the planet in future years.

我们需要在催化科学方面取得重大进展，以开发替代能源方案，摆脱对化石燃料能源的依赖。鉴于气候变化的威胁日益严重，这一当务之急尤为重要。该研究项目旨在开发强大的、选择性的和可持续的催化剂，用于从燃烧的最终产物中产生燃料，由可再生能源驱动的反应。为了在未来几年为地球提供动力所需的规模上进行这些转变，使用丰富的第一行过渡金属是绝对必要的。
