TAU announces new 'supercenter' for renewable energy

Date:6/13/2008

efficiency of solar cells by collecting both heat and electricity from solar panels. Borrowing the power of photosynthesis from bacteria, Prof. Chanoch Carmeli is developing "artificial leaves," a new breed of low-cost solar cells to convert sunlight to electricity (based on the natural process of photosynthesis which occurs in leaves), at Tel Aviv University laboratories.

Power the World Over

Besides being in a strategic geographical location for providing immediate solutions to countries such as China and India, Tel Aviv University's Supercenter will advance multidisciplinary research to achieve viable renewable energy solutions for the global community. At the Supercenter's helm will be scientists, engineers, economists, sociologists and legal scholars, including 30 faculty members and dozens of TAU graduate students. Cross-institutional collaborations will all be part of the formula of the planned Supercenter, in order to nurture future generations of environmentalists, scientists, and businesspeople.
