Dr Tijmen Bakker obtained his PhD on 8 October 2021 on his thesis titled Dye-sensitized solar and photoelectrochemical cells: Fundamental insights and design principles. He further pursued the subject during a 6-month valorisation project funded through the UvA’s Research Priority Area Sustainable Chemistry, leading to the successful Faculty of Impact application.

Developing solar cells for greenhouses 9 May 2022 Dr Tijmen Bakker, a postdoc at the Homogeneous, Supramolecular and Bio-Inspired Catalysis group of Prof. Joost Reek at the Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences, has been selected as a fellow of the 'Faculty of Impact' programme. This initiative of the Universities of the Netherlands, Techleap and the Dutch Research Council NWO aims to support researchers to bring their inventions to market. Bakker will receive funding of 200,000 euros and follow a two-year programme to further develop his idea for solar cells for greenhouses, which generate electricity while still leaving light available for plant growth. Greenhouses are strategically placed at locations where there is lots of sunlight so that their growth is maximized.
