Electrochemical technologies are deemed to play a crucial role in the ongoing transition to renewable energy and sustainable materials ecosystems. Electrochemical energy converters and reactors can operate at efficiencies not limited by thermodynamic cycles and have a unique size and power scalability.
In the Electrochemical Energy Storage Group (FTMC-EESG) we carry out the research and development of ion insertion batteries based on framework electrode materials and aqueous electrolyte solutions. At the moment, we are primarily focused on Na- and Zn-ion battery materials and systems.
We are hosted at the Center for Physical Sciences and Technology (FTMC), the largest research and technology organization in Baltics, as part of the Electrochemical Energy Conversion Lab within the Department of Chemical Engineering and Technologies.
