Today’s global economy is dangerously dependent on petroleum oil, and this problem is exacerbated because heavily populated developing countries are expanding their economies and becoming more energy intensive. Among various energy technologies, fuel cells and rechargeable batteries are promising candidates for generating and storing power in a clean manner because they can provide electricity without thermal combustion and the pollutants associated with burning fossil fuels. Research, development and deployment of these clean energy technologies that provide a permanent solution are, hence, urgently needed.

Novel electrospun nanofibers with functional properties can dramatically alter surface reaction rates and charge transport throughout fuel cells and batteries, causing significant improvement in energy storage, conversion and generation. The design of functional nanofiber materials for alternative energy systems is a way to develop a wide range of new technologies for a healthy future. This presentation gives two examples of our work on the development of advanced functional nanofibers and the integration of these materials into rechargeable batteries and fuel cells to achieve high system performance.
