The Race for Better Batteries
Conversion of raw materials into usable energy and storage of the energy produced is a common aspect of everyday life. The development of better batteries is a key technological challenge of the 21st century.
Advances will allow smaller more powerful batteries and will provide a greater ability to harness more sustainable energy sources and improve our quality of life. Prof. Shirley Meng leads the Laboratory for Energy Storage and Conversion (LESC), at the University of California San Diego to design and develop new functional nanomaterials and nanostructures for energy storage and conversion.
Learn more about how her lab’s research has made batteries safer, more powerful and last longer.
