\nA sustainable future demands scientific solutions. Developing more efficient means to harness energy, bringing renewable energy innovations and exploring revolutionary methods for energy storage and conversion, The Grand <\/span><\/span>Technion<\/span><\/span> Energy Program (GTEP) is guaranteeing the future of us all.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This future demands highly-skilled graduates in energy science, and as such, GTEP has launched its unique Graduate Energy Studies Program.<\/a> This is the only advanced multidisciplinary energy program in Israel, and it is also open to international students.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\nGlobal Exchange<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/span>
\nIn addition to nurturing the coming generation, international scientific collaboration with world-class researchers is vital to brainstorm the scientific power challenges. Prof. Harry Tuller of MIT recently delivered a lecture series and spoke about energy, Israel, and the challenges ahead. Global warming, pollution and astronomical increases in world energy demands were on the agenda: you can read more here<\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

This February, GTEP also hosted\u00a0Professor Eicke R. Weber – Director of the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE and Professor for Physics\/Solar Energy at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics and at the Faculty of Engineering at the Albert-Ludwigs-University of Freiburg, Germany.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\nResearch<\/strong><\/span>
\n
\n<\/strong><\/span>
\nAmong the many exciting research projects at GTEP, one laboratory received special attention this month: the lab of GTEP Prof. Yair Ein Eli. Prof. Ein Eli has registered two patents for his innovative silicon air battery – an all-green battery alternative that uses silicon – an abundant resource – and which promises 1000s of hours of life.\u00a0<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>
\nWhile the endorsement of Technion friends means that the dream of developing the silicon air battery to create a rechargeable version for electric cars and a multitude of other applications could well be realized in coming years, first on the horizon is a new generation of batteries for hearing aids. The beauty of the silicon-air battery is that hearing-aid users will only have to change batteries once every several months – as opposed to once a week. Read more here<\/a>.<\/span>
