Clean energy technologies typically use unsustainable petroleum feedstock, and researchers today will explore new ways to make wind turbine blades, solar PV modules and other components from biomaterials.

According to New York University's Institute of Technology (NYU-Poly), the National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded Richard Gross, a professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering, a prize. He will work with researchers from seven schools to develop biopolymers. .

Material development and application will last at least 5 years

Gross explains, for example, that fan blades are bulky and need to be replaced approximately every 25 years. In the end, these fan blades are “buried” in landfills like other non-recyclable garbage. If these wind turbine blades can be reshaped and reused by biological or chemical processing, this will have a huge positive impact on the environment.

Gross claims that we believe in the precision of the molecules designed by nature, which allow for better performance of photovoltaic cells and fan blades, and the composition of the components is critical to the performance of the device and the properties of the material.

It is reported that the National Science Foundation awarded Professor Gross and its partners an international research and education cooperation bonus, and the project they jointly developed is called “Renewable Energy Natural Law” (RENEW).
