Rakesh Agrawal

This researcher works on materials for solar energy conversion, focusing on synthesizing and engineering thin-film semiconductors such as chalcogenide perovskites (e.g., BaZrS3) and copper-based compounds (like CIGSSe and Cu2CdSnS4) for use in solar cells. Related work extends to process engineering questions such as how chemical plants and industrial reactors can operate flexibly using variable solar or wind electricity, and to energy storage and grid forecasting. The bibliographic record also includes some unrelated publications on topics like leadership and bibliometrics, which appear to reflect a shared author name rather than a single continuous research line.

Publication output has been fairly steady over the last decade, generally ranging from about 17 to 29 papers per year with a modest peak in 2024, though the count is incomplete for 2026.
