Facebook X LinkedIn Email
ST. LOUIS, July 25, 2012 — As part of the $125 million US-India Initiative for Clean Energy announced this year, engineers at Washington University in St. Louis (WUSTL) will work on low-cost solar cells as well as systems that integrate solar cells with batteries. The technology is designed to help India leapfrog energy production technology, moving directly to solar in areas of the country that have never been electrified. In 2009, President Barack Obama and China’s president Hu Jintao signed a memorandum of understanding to enhance cooperation on energy, climate change and the environment. They...Read full article
