Advancing Energy Sustainability by Governance Leadership in Artificial Photosynthesis (Making Fuels from Sunlight, Water and Carbon Dioxide)

This Project builds upon unique Australian interdisciplinary research and collaborations to develop novel conceptual approaches to governance leadership in the frontier technology of artificial photosynthesis (using sunlight to split water to make hydrogen and energy for carbon dioxide reduction, fuel production and storage). It links established and emerging Australian scholars with eminent international experts to construct an innovative governance framework, practical law reform proposals and significant national and international public policy initiatives, that overcome obstacles to commercialization, industrial and consumer deployment of this combined energy security, environmental sustainability and climate change solution.
