Rice Energy Program initiative on Energy Policy and Nanoscience. Second workshop in a series of three. In light of repeating oil supply disruptions and emerging environmental pressures, the international energy industry and scientific community are looking to non-conventional solutions to confront our ongoing energy security concerns. Energy is not just a critical concern to the United States, but also a global one. Among the most important technical challenges facing the world in the 21st century is providing clean, affordable energy, whose supply is sustainable and universally available. A solution to the global energy problem will require revolutionary new technology, as well as conservation and evolutionary improvements in existing technologies. The James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy, the Environmental and Energy Systems Institute, the Richard E. Smalley Institute for Nanoscale Science and Technology and the Shell Center for Sustainability sponsored a workshop to investigate potential contributions of solar-derived energy to a more efficient electricity grid in the United States and the role of nanoscience in advancing solar technology.
