Objectives

• To generate, through scientific research, knowledge in the area of chemical energy, its production, storage, transformation and application
• To study and apply electrochemical and physicochemical processes in order to contribute to the solution of energy, environmental and industrial problems, among others.
• To adapt and develop technologies for the production of chemical energy of different types, so that they can be used in the Center or transferred to the national productive sector.
• To promote the education and training of scientists in the fields of action of the Center, as part of the degree programs and the Graduate Program.
• To maintain priority for research on remunerated service programs with the external sector.
• To prioritize the use of economic income for remunerated services towards investment and strengthening of the center’s research programs.
• To disseminate research results, both in specialized journals and through social outreach programs.
• To promote cooperative relations with national and international institutions and organizations in the energy field.
