Description

Making Electrons Work Harder

Thursday, 15th October 

Part of the Science Public Lecture Series

Lithium-ion batteries have revolutionised portable electronics and begun electrification of the UK automotive sector. However, Li-ion batteries cannot store enough energy to solve all of our future energy-storage problems. In this lecture, Darren will describe how new research into chemistry and materials discovery is leading to the next generation of batteries that will go “beyond lithium-ion” and power transportation in the future, on the ground as well as in the air!

This event has now concluded, but you can watch a full recording of the lecture online here.
