Grant: Canada Research Chairs
University of Waterloo
$200,000.00
Solid State Energy Materials
FY 2023-24
Summary
Electrochemical energy storage (EES) is a key component in the drive for science devoted to
sustainable energy, paramount in today¿s society. The widespread integration of renewable,
intermittent energy sources is dependent upon EES to provide dispatchable power. The
acceptance of electric vehicles hinges on developing safe, low-cost batteries. These opportunities
address Canada¿s Climate Change Action and represent massive new-technology markets. The
proposed program will enable pioneering advances in EES based on the materials
(electro)chemistry that defines the performance of the batteries, and pave the way to
breakthroughs vital to realizing the next generation of EES.
