Prof. Abdessamad Faik is a Full Professor at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P) and Director of the Laboratory of Inorganic Materials for Sustainable Energy Technologies (LIMSET). He also serves as the R&D Director at Innovate for Industry (IFI). Prof. Faik earned his PhD from the University of the Basque Country in Leioa, Spain. Following his doctoral studies, he worked at the CEMTHI laboratory at CNRS in Orléans, France, and later at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in Stuttgart, Germany. He subsequently joined CIC energiGUNE in Vitoria, Spain, as Group Leader of the Thermal Energy Storage Group, where he also coordinated the Thermal Energy Storage Sub-Programme (SP3) of the European Energy Storage Alliance (EERA) for three years. Notably, in 2019, Prof. Faik was honored with the Basque Government's Research Recognition Award in its inaugural edition, recognizing his outstanding contributions and scientific-technological merit. Since joining UM6P in July 2020, Prof. Faik has focused his research on several key areas, including: • Developing innovative materials for green energy production and storage applications. • Valorizing industrial by-products in the energy sector as cost-effective storage materials. • Investigating and mitigating corrosion phenomena. • Exploring green hydrogen and green ammonia through feasibility studies and novel methods such as thermochemical water splitting at high temperatures. • Designing advanced materials for efficient solid-state hyd
