The potential of electrochemical energy storage in batteries and electrochemical supercapacitors and pseudocapacitors is enormous, ranging from low storage sizes for mobile electronics and other low-power applications to transportation and electric power sectors where storage sizes may be up to several megawatts. Electrochemical energy storage devices are also essential for the effective utilization and implementation of renewable resources such as solar and wind power.
Understanding, controlling, and predicting the structure and properties of solids and the synthesis of new materials with novel or enhanced properties have driven the energy storage field for the past three decades. Although the level of performance of current generation of storage devices is sufficient for a range of applications, novel intuitive concepts are needed for next-generation high-performing electrochemical energy storage systems at an affordable cost with improved safety to penetrate major new markets.
Design and synthesis of new electrode and electrolyte materials, advanced characterization methodologies including in situ techniques to understand at the atomic and nanoscale the surface, bulk, and interfacial characteristics, and computational analysis to predict materials behaviours and guide the design of new materials are among the main challenges for developing new next generation of high-performance materials.
The International Symposium “Electrochemical Energy Storage Systems: the Next Evolution” will emphasise breakthroughs in materials and energy storage systems for practical implementation. The Symposium will cover advances in electrode and electrolyte materials including new cell chemistries, novel electrode architectures, in situ and ex situ characterization, advanced computational methodologies, new cell configurations, and system development, along with addressing reliability, lifetime, cost, safety, and environmental issues for practical implementation.
