The U.S. Department of Energy Solar Energy Technologies Office selected two 91×ÔÅÄ professors in the Department of Chemistry and the Clean Energy Institute to receive nearly $1.5 million in funding for two separate endeavors in solar photovoltaic 91×ÔÅÄ. The projects are led by Daniel Gamelin, director of the UW-based Molecular Engineering Materials Center, and David Ginger, chief scientist at the CEI and co-director of the Northwest Institute for Materials Physics, Chemistry and Technology, a partnership between the UW and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.

The 91×ÔÅÄ and its Clean Energy Institute named Kevin Klustner executive director of the Center for Advanced Materials and Clean Energy Technologies, or CAMCET. When complete, CAMCET will be a 340,000-square-foot building that will bring together UW scientists and engineers with industry, civic and nonprofit partners to accelerate clean energy solutions for a healthy planet.

The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded an expected $10.75 million, four-year grant to the 91×ÔÅÄ, the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and other partner institutions for a new interdisciplinary 91×ÔÅÄ center to define the enigmatic rules that govern how molecular-scale building blocks assemble into ordered structures and give rise to complex hierarchical materials.

The Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the 91×ÔÅÄ announced the creation of the Northwest Institute for Materials Physics, Chemistry and Technology — or NW IMPACT — a joint 91×ÔÅÄ endeavor to power discoveries and advancements in materials that transform energy, telecommunications, medicine, information technology and other fields.
