The Materials Conversion Science Unit (AEM) is one of the research divisions of the International Institute for Carbon-Neutral Energy Research at Kyushu University. Its goal is to develop molecular and nano materials and structural materials based on new science of surfaces, interfaces, and microstructures for using hydrogen, water, and carbon dioxide. Research is carried out in two areas: catalytic materials and structural materials. The principal investigators include faculty members from the Faculty of Engineering, the Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering, and other units.

The Multiscale Structure Science Unit is one of the research divisions of the International Institute for Carbon-Neutral Energy Research (I²CNER), and it studies the challenges faced in the transition from a fossil-fuel-centered society to a carbon-neutral one. The challenges span a range of scales, and the unit covers CO₂ capture by membrane separation, geological CO₂ storage and management, energy-saving technologies, socio-techno-economic and policy analysis, and thermal energy conversion. The unit also incorporates mathematical methods such as optimization and agent-based models. According to the unit, this allows it to develop dynamic models relevant to integrating renewable energy and distributed energy resources into the power grid, and to improving the efficiency and safety of combustion processes.

The Mitsui Chemicals Carbon Neutral Research Center is divided into divisions for green hydrogen production and use, CO2 separation and capture, CO2 conversion and fixation, and advanced analysis and evaluation, each conducting its own research. The hydrogen division works on developing the component technologies for producing and using green hydrogen. The CO2 divisions develop technologies for separating CO2 from sources such as factory flue gas, as well as conversion technologies that turn the captured CO2 into chemical products. The center is located on Kyushu University's Ito Campus, and faculty from multiple research institutes and research faculties participate in each division.

The Research Center for Next-Generation Refrigerant Properties (NEXT-RP) is a hub for research collaboration in Japan and abroad, aimed at the development and evaluation of next-generation refrigerants. Refrigerants are substances used in refrigerators and air conditioners. Fluorocarbon refrigerants have been a problem because of ozone layer depletion, and their replacement, HFCs, because of their large impact on global warming. The center conducts fundamental research on the thermophysical properties, heat exchange characteristics, and basic cycle performance of new refrigerants with zero ODP and low GWP, which place a small burden on the environment. It carries out this research not only with labs at Kyushu University but also in collaboration with universities and research institutions in Japan and abroad.

The Multiscale Structural Science Unit comprehensively studies the challenges faced in the transition from a fossil-fuel-centered society to a carbon-neutral one. Its research covers a variety of CO2 emission reduction technologies and energy efficiency technologies, as well as combinations of them. It also conducts research that considers the socioeconomic aspects of technologies and offers implications for policy and corporate investment strategies. Mathematical methods are also incorporated to achieve an optimal energy cycle.

The Research Center for Next-Generation Refrigerant Properties (NEXT-RP) is a research institution that evaluates the thermophysical properties, heat transfer characteristics, and cycle system performance of refrigerants for future use. It was established in April 2016 within the International Institute for Carbon-Neutral Energy Research (I²CNER) at Kyushu University. Rather than doing all of its work at Kyushu University alone, it works in collaboration with research institutions in Japan and around the world. It conducts fundamental research on new refrigerants that do not deplete the ozone layer and have a low global warming potential (GWP).

The Ultrafunctional Energy and Nanomaterials Lab is a lab at the International Institute for Carbon-Neutral Energy Research (I2CNER), which conducts fundamental research aimed at reducing CO2 emissions. The lab aims to develop new ultrafunctional materials by designing chemical composition and controlling lattice defects. Its research centers on experiments and detailed evaluation of nanostructures, combined with theoretical studies and machine learning. Master's and doctoral students are admitted through the Department of Automotive Science in the Graduate School of Integrated Frontier Sciences.
