Biological Process and Design (BIO): Studies involving using biological processes to produce sources of energy such as in microbial fuel cells, algae, biomass, fossil fuels and waste.

Solar Process, Materials, and Design (SOL): The study and design of photovoltaics, including components such as collectors, concentrators, photoconductor composition and spectral sensitizers.

Energy Storage (EST): The study of battery and storage cell composition and design.

Wind and Water Movement Power Generation (FLD): The application of engineering principles and design concepts involving processes to generate power from fluid flow, including turbines design, angle of attack and surface optimization.

Hydrogen Generation and Storage (HYD): The application of engineering principles and design concepts involving hydrogen production, optimization, and storage for energy production.

Thermal Generation and Design (THR): Studies of generation of power from geothermal and other thermal sources, design, and processes.

Triboelectricity and Electrolysis (ELC): Studies involving the generation of electricity from a static charge, electrolysis reaction and charged particles.

Other (OTH): Studies that cannot be assigned to one of the above subcategories. If the project involves multiple subcategories, the principal subcategory should be chosen instead of Other.
