The energy trilemma describes the difficulty in achieving a coherent balance of clean, affordable, and secure energy. Improvements in one factor in the triangle distorts the other components. In this blog post, I explore how ‘smart technologies’, connected by the internet and powered by new ambient energy harvesting devices, can be vital to overcoming the energy trilemma and to achieving energy sustainability.
A team of interdisciplinary researchers at the University of South Carolina and the University of Tennessee is looking to hire a post-doctoral research associate to work primarily on a project funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. The project aims to understand what a ‘just transition’ means for local communities, labor movements, and energy vulnerable populations in SC and TN. The deadline for applying is March 15, 2022. Applications received before this date will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
ssibility of renewal. The individual hired will work as part of an interdisciplinary team from the University of Georgia, Tribal partners, the Tribal Nations Technical Center for Excellence (TNTCX), and the United States Army Corps of Engineers – Engineer Research and Development Center (USACE-ERDC).
In the proposed project, hybrid perovskite-based thin films will be investigated for their ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. The ferroelectric properties will be explored using the P-E loop (polarisation-electric field) and piezo-force microscopy (PFM) method.
Through this project, air-stable, all inorganic halide perovskites will be developed through solution processing methods and capable to harvest both the indoor lighting inside the building from artificial light sources such as white LEDs and fluorescent lamps and also from the outdoor Sun.
Host James is joined by Dr Emilka Skrzypek (St Andrews) for a special youth-focused episode of the All About Energy podcast. Our hosts welcome two guests into the virtual studio – the winner and runner-up of the Centre for Energy Ethics’ 3MPlanet competition: Isabella Cuervo-Lorens and Georgina Steel. Our guests reflect on their journeys into the worlds of sustainability and climate change and the importance of the youth voice.
