Introducing Energy Quarterly
When MRS Bulletin published its expanded special issue in April 2008, “Harnessing
Materials for Energy,” it was not a project done lightly. The impetus for this effort was
the desire to describe the veritable options that materials provide in energy technologies.
These options can then be evaluated in the context of other imperatives such as
economic viability and environmental concerns, which all interact to determine societal
choices for energy.
