  6. Co-Chairs: George Crabtree (ANL) and Marc Kastner (MIT) Members: Michelle Buchanan, Thomas Mallouk, John Sarrao, Michael Klein, Arthur Nozik, Julia Phillips, Sue Clark, Frank DiSalvo, Don DePaolo, Simon Bare, Wayne Hendrickson, Wolfgang Eberhardt, Franz Himpsel, Michael Norman, Andrea Cavalleri, Carl Lineberger, Yet-Ming Chiang, Pat Looney • Charge: • Summarize the range of scientific research directions that emerged from the 2002 BESAC report Basic Research Needs for a Secure Energy Future, the follow-on BES BRNs reports, and the BESAC report “Directing Matter and Energy: Five Challenges for Science and the Imagination.” Identify key cross-cutting scientific themes that are common to these reports. • Summarize the implementation strategies, and human resources that will be required to accomplish the science described in the aforementioned reports. New Science for a Secure and Sustainable Energy Future http://www.sc.doe.gov/bes/reports/list.html • Three Strategic Goals: • Making fuels from sunlight • Generating electricity without carbon dioxide emissions • Revolutionizing energy efficiency and use

  7. Energy Sustainability and Materials Sustainable Energy Materials Diverse Functions PV, Superconductors, Photocatalysts Battery Electrodes Electrolytic Membranes Active Function: Converting Energy Value: Functionality 30 year Lifetime Traditional Energy Materials Fuels: coal, oil, gas CH0.8, CH2, CH4 Passive Function: Combustion Value: Commodities High Energy Content Greater Sustainability = Greater Complexity, higher functional materials

  8. Solar Energy Utilization: PV Production Learning Curve 1976 “80% Learning Curve”:Module price decreases by20% for every doubling ofcumulative production Silicon Wafer Technologies 2010 2015 2005 80% Note: By 2020, current trajectory will supply 16 GW (peak) (~3.5 GW avg) in U.S. whereas at least 425 GW will be needed just for electricity, and ~2000 GW for fuel.

  9. Future scenarios: Crystalline silicon Thin films/Concentrators New technologies Solar Energy Utilization: Breakthroughs Needed PV grid parity (~$0.10/kWh) is projected by 2015. But this is not good enough for massive use of solar power. That would require solar at $0.02/kWh (cost of coal). And that bold goal requires basic research and resultant disruptive technology. New Science is required to move us off the present curve

  11. Controlling Materials and Chemistries in ultra-small and ultra-fast regimes Computer modeling Complex materials Nanoscience New Science: Mastering Complexity • A New Era of Science: • Build materials with atom-by-atom chemical precision • Predict behavior of new materials • Design novel materials and chemistries for specific tasks

  12. BESAC Subcommittee on Facing our Energy Challenges in a New Era of Science Recommendations: • Control science with complex functional materials. • Increase the rate of discoveries and establish US leadership in next-generation carbon-free energy technologies. • ‘Dream teams’ of highly educated talent, equipped with forefront tools, and focused on the most pressing challenges • Aggressively recruit the best talent through a series of workforce development. http://www.sc.doe.gov/bes/reports/files/NSSSEF_rpt.pdf
