Marta Hatzell Appointed Interim Deputy Director of the Strategic Energy Institute
Associate Professor Marta Hatzell has been appointed interim deputy director of the Strategic Energy Institute (SEI).
Hatzell currently leads the industrial decarbonization and clean catalysis initiative at SEI and holds joint appointments in the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering and the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. Most recently, she led the Materials for Carbon-Neutral Fuel Production track at this year’s Energy Materials Day, which attracted over 400 participants from academia and industry.
“Marta has been an outstanding addition to SEI’s initiative lead program, where her contributions have already made a significant impact. I am excited to see her further engage with the Georgia Tech energy community in this role,” said Christine Conwell, SEI interim executive director.

The Georgia Institute of Technology has a broad range of testbeds, industry partnerships, and federal programs across the hydrogen value chain, including hydrogen production, storage/transport, and utilization. Georgia Tech is also focused on developing diverse STEM talent for such industries.
Featured Center
Direct Air Capture Center (DirACC)
The Direct Air Capture Center (DirACC) is the culmination of more than a decade of research at Georgia Tech to develop materials and processes that extract carbon dioxide (CO2) directly from the atmosphere. Climate models suggest that negative emissions technologies (NETs) will need to be developed and deployed in order to stabilize the climate. With several recent awards, Georgia Tech researchers have launched the Direct Air Capture Center (DirACC). DirACC will create a forum for collaborative research on NETs and DAC, bringing together researchers from across the Institute working in energy, sustainability, policy, and related fields.
