What do we focus on in electrochemical energy storage?

We focus our research on both fundamental and applied problems relating to electrochemical energy storage systems and materials. These include: (a) lithium-ion, lithium-air, lithium-sulfur, and sodium-ion rechargeable batteries; (b) electrochemical super-capacitors; and (c) cathode, anode, and electrolyte materials for these systems.

What are electrochemical energy storage/conversion systems?

Electrochemical energy storage/conversion systems include batteries and ECs. Despite the difference in energy storage and conversion mechanisms of these systems, the common electrochemical feature is that the reactions occur at the phase boundary of the electrode/electrolyte interface near the two electrodes .

What is electrochemical energy storage (EES)?

It has been highlighted that electrochemical energy storage (EES) technologies should reveal compatibility, durability, accessibility and sustainability. Energy devices must meet safety, efficiency, lifetime, high energy density and power density requirements.

What are the different types of electrochemical energy storage devices?

Modern electrochemical energy storage devices include lithium-ion batteries, which are currently the most common secondary batteries used in EV storage systems. Other modern electrochemical energy storage devices include electrolyzers, primary and secondary batteries, fuel cells, supercapacitors, and other devices.
