Center for Renewable Energy Electrochemistry  

The mission of CREE is to become a leader in renewable electrochemically-based energy sources.

Range of activities:

-Improved electrochemical performance through alternative electrolytes such as ionic liquids.

-Catalysts- It is widely recognized that there is not sufficient Pt for widespread fuel cell deployment. New catalysts in non-acid based electrolytes are an area of focus.

-Electrocatalyst and electrode stability studies to improve longevity of e.g. Pt, and seek more stable systems.

-Fuel cell architectures- Investigation of membraneless alternatives to conventional fuel cells based on consideration of the previous three research activities. 

-Sustainable electrochemical energy sources- electrochemical solar cells.
