      Researchers in my group are currently conducting research in understanding and developing new materials for (1) rechargeable lithium and sodium batteries; and (2) perovskite-type solar cells.
      I don’t really have a favourite energy generator – but I do find the two areas above fascinating (and fun) to investigate. As I mentioned at the end of xmas Lecture one, there will be an ‘energy mix’ of different types of low-carbon technologies in the future, which will be important.
