The Ben-Gurion National Solar Energy Center is dedicated to conducting renewable energy ​research and its graduate programs. The research scope ranges from harvesting solar energy to storage, material science, optics, and surface physics, such as high concentration photovoltaics, physics of solar cells at very high efficiency, organic photovoltaics, highly concentrated electrolytes for super-capacitors and batteries, light-matter reactive metamaterials, and electro-molecular surfaces. ​
