Kannan specializes in fuel cells, solar cells and large-scale energy storage in batteries. He has been involved in fuel cell and battery research and development for more than 30 years.

Wang's research interests include thermal energy conversion, storage, and transport in nanostructured materials; thermoelectric power generation; thermal storage media; heat transfer, and phonon optics

Vermaas and his team conduct basic and applied research on cyanobacteria, a group of photosynthetic microbes, using these organisms as a chassis to produce useful compounds (biofuels, green chemicals) from sunlight and CO2.

Computational modeling and design for the development of environment-friendly power systems: 1.5 MW coal-natural gas co-firing boiler, 250 kg/day hydrogen production system, and 5 kW-class solid oxide fuel cell power system.

Xu is an assistant professor in The Polytechnic School. His research at ASU aims to advance material understanding and design for clean energy technologies.
