As we continue our quest for a greener future, the role of energy storage cannot be underestimated. Energy storage system (ESS) is essential for achieving a green future by maximizing the potential of renewable energy sources, reducing carbon emissions, and enhancing the resilience and efficiency of our energy systems. Our symposium will serve as a dynamic platform for researchers, industry experts, and leaders to share the latest advancements and insights into electrochemical ESS technology. From exploring novel electrode materials to discussing manufacturing processes, we will delve into the key factors driving the sustainability and efficiency of ESS. Particular emphasis will be placed on lithium-ion battery (LIB) technologies, given their central role in modern energy storage technologies. Through focused discussions and knowledge exchange, we aim to accelerate the integration of ESS into everyday applications such as transportation and grid storage, bringing us closer to a sustainable energy landscape.
- Advanced electrochemical techniques for energy conversion and strorage systems
