Innovation that drives sustainability
Many of the world’s greatest sustainability challenges are fundamentally chemistry problems. We can convert the mobility sector from internal combustion engines to electric vehicles, but this requires batteries with greater range and lower cost. This is fundamentally a chemistry challenge. We can have a zero-energy building, but this requires high performance insulation, efficient solar panels, and energy storage solutions. Each of these are fundamentally chemistry challenges.
