Information
Organization's Own Description:
The Center for Renewable Energy Science and Technology (CREST) to
coordinates research, development, and technology transfer in the area of renewable energy at the University of Texas at Arlington.
To meet our future energy needs, we must develop
alternative energy sources because (a) the fossil fuel reserve will not be sufficient to meet the demand beyond 2050; and (b) an over-reliance on fossil fuels (many of them are located in politically unstable regions in the Middle East, Central Asia, Africa, and Latin
America) has both environmental and political implications as highlighted in recent events.
Recognizing the importance of this critical problem, many individual faculty members on campus have been active on various aspects of energy research and development, and these activities are supported by various funding agencies. However,
CREST has the overarching goal of bringing together these dispersed activities under one organizational umbrella. It coordinates the research and development efforts of various faculty members on campus and lead to focused multidisciplinary research teams
pursuing a common theme within the energy framework. It also provides a centralized facility with state-of-the-art instrumentation to enable cutting-edge energy research and development.
