Sir Geoffrey Wilkinson Lecture 2026: fuels from sunlight.

The Sir Geoffrey Wilkinson Lecture 2026 – Towards Solar Fuels and Fertilisers is an open lecture at Imperial College London. It is given by Professor Jonas Peters of the California Institute of Technology, who directs the Resnick Sustainability Institute there. He explains how chemists can use electricity and light to steer protons and electrons toward making fuels, fertilisers and other useful molecules, with a focus on converting nitrogen from the air into ammonia. His laboratory develops catalysts to control this molecular currency for renewable solar fuel technologies.
