Fuel Cells: Powering
Progress in the 21st Century, Sossina
M. Haile
Dr. Sossina Haile,
associate professor of materials science
at Caltech, presented
this lecture as part of the Watson
Lecture Series.
Despite California's narrow escape from
a major energy crisis
in summer 2001, we face long-term
challenges in meeting
our ever-increasing energy demands
while maintaining the
quality of our natural environment
and ensuring our
national security. Fuel cells offer a
possible solution,
but many technical hurdles remain.
Haile provides a
brief overview of current fuel-cell and
associated
fuel-delivery technologies, and describes recent
breakthroughs at
Caltech in materials design and engineering.
