Research Research groups Glushenkov Group Our research is focused on developing materials and technologies for energy storage in batteries and related devices. label Research theme Research themes Functional Materials and Interfaces About Electrochemical energy storage becomes more and more important in the context of next generation power grid, home storage, electric transportation and well-established applications such as power tools and portable devices. Our research is focused on developing materials and technologies for energy storage in batteries and related devices. A particular focus is on beyond-lithium batteries such as sodium-ion, potassium-ion and dual-ion batteries. Another avenue of our research is in hybrid storage technologies (metal-ion capacitors). Projects Materials chemistry of hybrid-energy storage in lithium-ion and sodium-ion capacitors This projects will investigate materials chemistry of negative and positive electrodes that can enable such a high-speed, unusual operation of electrochemical energy storage cells.
