  1. HU Addressing the Energy Challenge Prof. Daniel Mandler Vice Dean for Research Friends of HUJI, March , 2014

  2. My street in Jerusalem, December 12, 2013… Alternative energy needed…

  3. Future Energy Challenges • Explosion in global commerce & population has caused an urgent energy challenge • What’s the right balance between secure, affordable energy & climate change?

  4. Two Directions in Energy R&D

  5. Maximizing Existing Energies Government of Israel Initiative to maximize gas exploration

  6. What Alternative Energies Are There? Solar Hydrogen Hydro Wind

  7. Energy Research Energy Management Conversion Storage

  8. Energy Conversion: Solar Photovoltaic cells conversion into electricity Solar Thermal conversion into heat Conversion Photosynthesis conversion into fuels

  9. Energy Storage Batteries Storage Fuel Cells Supercapacitors

  10. Energy Management Energy Efficiency Energy Networking Management Clean Energy Energy delivery

  11. How Are We Solving The Energy Challenge?

  12. “The scientist discovers a new type of material or energy and the engineer discovers a new use for it” Gordan L Glegg(Author)

  13. HUJI’s Added Value Materials Applications Synthesis of new materials & their application (coating) technologies

  14. Smart Energy Materials Greenhouse Plastic Sheets Plastic Solar Cells Displays Paints & Coating Composite films for LED light tuning Thermo solar collectors Energy Materials

  15. “The future is green energy, sustainability, renewable energy” Arnold Schwarzenegger

  16. Thermo Solar Coatings Profs. ShlomoMagdassi & Daniel Mandler “We have developed a black, heat resistant coating for solar energy harvesting by thermo solar absorber.” http://www.solarindustrymag.com/e107_plugins/content/content.php?content.13803#utm_medium=email&utm_source=LNH+02-14-2014&utm_campaign=SIM+News+Headlines Applications

  17. Low Cost Conductive Transparent Coatings Prof. ShlomoMagdassi “I am developing a conductive transparent coating for solar energy that can be printed on any surface with a simple printer.”

  18. Architecturally Designed Catalysts for Energy Applications Dr. EladGross “I will use architecturally designed catalysts for new energy applications such as such as biomass and natural gas transformation to fuels”.
