Symposium Scope:
Searching for low-cost materials to fill the gap between energy supply and demand with clean, reliable, and inexpensive energy is urgent need. To achieve this major challenge in a reasonable amount of time, advanced computational method is a useful tool to understand reactions for energy storage and conversion at the atomic scale. This symposium focuses on application of computational techniques for the development and optimization of energy materials, outlining their strengths and limitations. The techniques include current methodologies based on electronic structure, interatomic potential and hybrid methods.
Topics include:
• Computational methods and approaches
• Modelling materials for storage applications: batteries and hydrogen
• Modelling materials for energy conversion applications: fuel cells, heterogeneous catalysis for biomass conversion and electrochemical CO2 reduction to hydrocarbons
• Nanostructures for energy applications
