Canada's Nationally Determined Contribution aims to reduce annual emissions to achieve a net-zero emission by 2050. Toward this goal, the application of Renewable Energy Technologies is recognized as a key strategy that could be integrated with Thermal Energy Storage systems to sustainably address the challenges caused by the intermittent nature of renewable sources. Hence, IRES research team, led by Professor LEYLA AMIRI, aims to quantify the interphase heat and mass transfer phenomena related to the deployment of IRES via two methods, multiphysics mathematical models and experimental set-ups tailored to validate the numerical results.

The group aims to introduce open innovations, leading cutting-edge research, solutions and technological in energy systems with respect to sustainability, energy savings, environmental productivity and cost.
