Research across the RASEI community includes areas across the entire energy continuum, from how we generate clean and renewable energy, through how we transmit and store electricity, how we use energy in a more efficient and conscientious manner, to how energy is supplied to different countries and communities.
We describe these different fields as Research Impact Areas. We use a range of tools to investigate different perspectives across these impact area (see our Research Foci section). The nature of the challenges we are investigating in the transition to a clean energy economy results in projects that employ a suite of tools that have a bearing across a range of Research Impact Areas, which makes RASEI a productive forum for collaboration.
By bringing together investigators that research across the energy continuum, RASEI fosters feedback and engagement, which benefits how the entire team approaches solving problems. By promoting discussion between researchers who are exploring the impacts of introducing new solar technologies to a cross-section of different communities and those developing materials for the next generation of solar cells, we enhance and improve the way we all think about these problems.
