title: Protein/peptide based nanomaterials for energy application.
abstract: Biological systems have developed unique capabilities to generate, harness and store energy in efficient ways. In recent years, biologically inspired approaches have been introduced as a new approach to find breakthroughs for next generation energy devices and storage. Of particular interest are efforts to translate biological principles directly into synthetic energy systems. In this review, we focus on the use of proteins and protein mimicry for energy applications. We highlight the major advances and results achieved with proteins as new concept energy devices.
