Topological invariants

The 2024 Croucher Advanced Study Institute (ASI) in Electrochemical Energy Storage has been developed against a backdrop of intense academic interest and industrial demand for sustainable energy solutions.

Energy storage is the key to lowering CO2 emissions by enabling more renewable energy generation to be used and also by enabling the transport sector to use electric energy generated in renewable ways rather than fossil fuels.

 

This event bridges academia and industry, fostering a crucial exchange of ideas and innovations aimed at overcoming current challenges in energy storage efficiency, safety, and cost. By uniting leading experts from both spheres, this ASI seeks to advance global efforts towards a sustainable energy future.
