An international research project investigating wind energy capturing efficiency and improving wind forecasting for wind turbine facilities. The project focuses on understanding how wind speed and direction over complex terrain at turbine hub heights differ from standard weather forecasts and developing improved microscale models for better forecasting.

A research initiative at the University of Notre Dame to develop a semiconducting nanoparticle paint that can harvest solar energy and produce electricity on any surface.
