About This Project
Fire powers civilization by oxidizing carbon fuels. Cells oxidize energy in the Krebs cycle using natural redox protein complexes shuttling electrons. We aim to computationally model and synthesize novel protein-cofactor pairs to mimic this for clean electricity storage. Our approach involves novel structural design, redox potential prediction, protein synthesis, and electrochemical testing in a flow battery. Success enables scalable, distributed storage for renewable grid integration.
