Powering the Future: Understanding Batteries Through Hands-On Electrochemistry
Experience the exciting world of electrochemistry and energy storage through engaging demonstrations and interactive models. Batteries are at the heart of modern technology from smartphones and electric vehicles to renewable energy storage. Our goal is to help students understand how batteries store and deliver energy, and how advances in materials science, such as metal–sulfur and metal–ion chemistries, are paving the way for safer, more sustainable energy solutions.
