The green hydrogen revolution is coming, and Australia is perfectly placed to take advantage of it, an analysis of production costs by UNSW engineers has shown.
Light-weight, cheap and ultra-thin perovskite crystals have promised to shake-up renewable energy for some time. Research led by Professor Anita Ho-Baillie means they are ready to take the next steps towards commercialisation.
Associate Professor Brett Hallam has been named the 2020 recipient of the IEEE Stuart R Wenham Young Professional Award, for outstanding contributions to photovoltaics technology.

When Chee Mun Chong left UNSW as a young solar energy researcher he held an efficiency record for large-area buried contact solar cells. When he returned to the university as an academic 20 years later, the record still stood.
Solar cells used in space are achieving higher efficiencies than those used at ground level, and now there are ways to have them working on Earth without breaking the bank.
UNSW Engineering continues to set the pace of the world’s solar energy development as three rising stars are acknowledged for their achievements in research.
Chemical Engineering’s Associate Professor Kondo-Francois Aguey-Zinsou and SPREE’s Dr Brett Hallam have both been recognised in Engineers Australia’s list of Australia’s Most Innovative Engineers for 2018, as has alumna Anne Williams.
UNSW researchers Bram Hoex, Brett Hallam and Alison Ciesla have received an esteemed award that recognises young professionals who have made their mark in solar technology internationally.
UNSW Sydney congratulates solar energy pioneer Scientia Professor Martin Green, who has become the first Australian to win a prestigious Global Energy Prize worth more than $820,000.
