Powering the planet: Chemical challenges in solar energy utilization

Global energy consumption is projected to increase, even in the face of substantial declines in energy intensity, at least 2-fold by midcentury relative to the present because o...

Electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution by cobalt difluoroboryl-diglyoximate complexes

In the presence of moderately strong acids in CH3CN, cobalt complexes with BF2-bridged diglyoxime ligands are active catalysts for the reduction of protons to H2 at potentials a...

Net-zero emissions energy systems

Path to zero carbon emissions Models show that to avert dangerous levels of climate change, global carbon dioxide emissions must fall to zero later this century. Most of these e...
