    To decarbonize transportation, grid systems, and heavy industries, we rely on disruptive technologies and novel materials. Among these solutions, chemical and electrochemical energy storage mechanisms play pivotal roles in our journey. In the realm of chemical energy storage, hydrogen emerges as a clean and versatile fuel, holding the potential to drive us towards net-zero emissions by 2050. However, current hydrogen production methods have limitations, including CO2 emissions and high energy consumption. The Abate lab is committed to developing more efficient hydrogen production chemistries, eliminating CO2 emissions, and achieving a cost below $1/kg—an essential milestone for broader hydrogen adoption. In the field of electrochemical energy storage, our mission is to create high-energy-density, cost-effective batteries reliant on sustainable minerals. Sodium-ion batteries (NIBs) offer promise in this endeavor. Our laboratory actively explores manganese and iron-rich NIB technology, aiming to contribute to a more sustainable and eco-friendly energy future.
