Vision:
The Institute of Sustainability, Electrification, and Energy (I:SEE) will build the scientific foundation necessary to meet the science and technology energy challenges of the 21st Century.
Mission:
Housed at Stony Brook University, I:SEE focuses on electrochemistry and energy storage to address energy related issues, and human health.
Focus Areas:
Energy Storage For a New Energy Vision:
Advances in energy storage basic science and technology are critical in enabling expanded adoption of renewable forms of energy and a clean and resilient electric grid.
Facilitate Electrification of Transportation:
Further portable energy storage needed to enable the widespread utilization of electric vehicles.
Energy Storage in Service of Human Health:
Advances in treatment and diagnosis of human health demand advances in energy storage providing small, adaptable, and reliable systems.
Objectives:
Conduct Scientific Research to Foster Innovation:
The Institute will conduct scientific research to promote innovation with a focus on electrochemistry and energy storage.
Educate Energy Leaders and Workforce:
Prepare students, early and mid-career scientists to become the energy leaders of the future.
Engage Partners:
Leverage Brookhaven National Laboratory to mobilize and engage private and public partners in impactful new programs related to energy and the environment.
