Professor Gang Wu, a distinguished figure in energy, environmental, and chemical engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, has been selected as the recipient of the prestigious Energy Technology Division Research Award by the Electrochemical Society (ECS). This accolade is granted annually to commend exceptional contributions to the science and technology of energy-related research, with a specific emphasis on electrochemical energy research. Wu's pioneering work in the development of platinum group metal (PGM)-free and low-PGM catalysts has significantly advanced sustainable hydrogen technologies, including applications in fuel cells, water electrolysis, carbon dioxide conversion, and clean electrosynthesis. His dedication to exploring innovative solutions for energy conversion and storage has positioned him as a leading expert in the field. The award ceremony, set to take place in the upcoming spring, marks a significant recognition of Wu's impactful research and commitment to excellence in electrochemical energy technology.
