Our Mission

ALMATCLEAN is an interdisciplinary network of researchers focused on developing innovative materials to address the diverse challenges of the clean energy transition. By addressing the full materials life cycle, from design and testing through development and scale-up to industrial application and end-of-life management, the network promotes a systems-thinking approach to clean energy materials research.
