1. Water splitting by heterogeneous catalysis
Abstract : A sustainable solution for meeting the energy demands at our planet is by utilizing wind-, solar-, wave-, thermal-, biomass- and hydroelectric power. These renewable and CO2 emission-free energy sources are highly variable in terms of spatial and temporal availability over the Earth, introducing the need for an appropriate method of storing and carrying energy.

2. Novel electrode and photoelectrode materials for hydrogen production based on molecular catalysts
Abstract : The PhD project focussed on the application of a cobalt tetraazamacrocyclic complex, in the literature commonly referred to as [Co(CR)Cl2]+ as a molecular catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). This was within the broader scope of the EU MSCA H2020 ITN ‘eSCALED’ project, which primarily aimed to create artificial leaf devices for the storage of solar energy in chemical fuels and, as part of this, sought the development of novel bio-inspired and scalable materials.

3. Defect Thermodynamics and Kinetics in Polyanionic Cathodes : A Theoretical Roadmap for Na-ion based Batteries and Hybrid Supercapacitors
Abstract : In this thesis, the framework of the density functional theory is employed to study and predict properties of polyanionic cathodes for Na-ion batteries and hybrid supercapacitors. It consists of three main parts as follows:The first part is primarily dedicated to kröhnkite-type Na2Fe(SO4)22H2O cathode. READ MORE

4. Organic Materials-based Electrochemical Flow Cells for Energy Applications
Abstract : To meet the 2015 Paris Agreement requirement of limiting global warming to 1.5 °C, the transition from fossil fuels to renewables (solar and wind) necessitates a rapid change of the energy landscape. READ MORE
