Research Fellow, King's College

Shannon Bonke is a renewable energy scientist researching catalysts for energy conversion and storage reactions, especially the synthesis of fuels from solar power. Shannon’s research on energy conversion and storage aims to break the link between modern life and environmental destruction. He is developing energy storage systems to manage the natural intermittency of solar and wind power, and thereby enable the modern standard of living to be entirely powered by renewable energy. Through his research, he examines how communication of energy supply solutions affects the perception of Net-Zero, and the policy framework required for these emerging technologies to enable thriving Net-Zero economies.
