دانلود کتاب کشف مواد انرژی که آینده ای پایدار را فراهم می کند

My motivation for writing a text on ‘Energy Materials for a Sustainable Future’ was manifold. I define energy materials as materials that can generate, convert, and store energy in its different forms. The COVID-19 pandemic and self-isolation presented me with plenty of time to percolate over the vulnerability of humanity and the fragility of the global economy to an expected biological catastrophe. I was struck by the effect the almost complete shutdown of human activities and business had on greenhouse gas emissions, which not surprisingly decreased because of the diminished demand for energy. These events emphasized our lack of preparedness to handle a biological catastrophe, which parallels our state of unreadiness for the looming climate catastrophe. I wondered if the gradual shift from non-renewable to renewable forms of energy will happen fast enough to satisfy the growing appetite for energy by an expanding global population. Having spent my career as an inorganicphysical- solid state chemist making materials with a purpose, I began to think about the synergism between the energy to make materials and the materials to produce, convert and store energy.
