Energy Generation

Generation is the centerpiece of energy’s future.  Sources and methods for producing energy must become cleaner and more reliable.  They must also become cheaper and more abundant.  

CWRU’s research in generation highlights renewables.  Example innovations include PV modules built from natural materials and wind turbines installed offshore.  

To support this research, the University has also recently established new energy centers: 

  • A three-turbine wind facility welcoming industry R&D
  • A solar module fabrication lab
  • An indoor/outdoor solar durability center, with spokes in Colorado, Florida, and overseas

For a broader view of the University’s work in these fields, please see:
