The Energy Storage Research Laboratory currently has its base in the Discipline of Chemistry at the University of Newcastle. The focus of our research is in many different areas of energy storage including batteries, supercapacitors and fuels cells. However, there are two general objectives of our energy storage research: (i) the development of new materials with enhanced performance compared to existing industry standards; and (ii) fundamental material characterization to understand charge storage and charge transfer processes. Energy storage researchThe global …
