Oxford Sparks: bringing science to life

Power People: what are we doing with all that energy?

Did you know that you are in charge of a power station? It's true. Every time you flick a light switch, a power station somewhere in the UK will respond and generate that little bit of extra power you need for your light.
Chemistry for the Future: Solar Fuels

Conclusion: Inspired by Nature

The current energy crisis is a time of intense challenges but also of opportunities for fantastic science and innovative ideas.
Chemistry for the Future: Solar Fuels

Artificial Photosynthesis - From Photon to Fuel

Andrea Bachmeier, a DPhil student in the Armstrong Group, is helping to create a fully integrated artificial photosynthesis (APS) system which could be much more efficient at turning sunlight into fuel than living systems.
Chemistry for the Future: Solar Fuels

Enzymes as Fuel Producers

Growing energy demand worldwide is a crucial challenge for chemists. Suzannah Hexter, Armstrong Group, shows how, with the help of enzymes, the principles of photosynthesis may be artificially exploited and improved to provide a clean energy resource.
Chemistry for the Future: Solar Fuels

Introduction to Solar Fuels

In an 'Oxford tutorial' style podcast, Professor Fraser Armstrong introduces the concept of artificial photosynthesis: coupling a light harvesting material with a fuel producer in order to generate storable energy from sunlight.
Entrepreneurship

Oxford at Said Seminar: Energy

In this seminar three Oxford academics explore the role of energy demand in a low carbon future, fusion and solar energy.
