SUMMARY:Charging Ahead: Batteries of the Future (SLAC Public Lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Yi Cui\, SLAC\, Stanford University\nSponsored by SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory\n7:00-8:00pm\, Hybrid event\, Free\, Registration required to attend in person (Panofsky Auditorium\, SLAC) or watch live on SLAC’s YouTube page. Registration deadline: October 5th. See SLAC Visitor Map\n\nTo transform our energy sources to carbon neutrality\, we need to power as much of modern society as possible with clean electricity. In doing so\, electricity generated from solar and wind sources requires energy storage. To meet today’s tough demands\, however\, energy storage designs must do many things – store more energy\, charge faster\, be capable of mass production\, decrease costs for the consumer\, be safe\, and be made of materials that minimize harm to the environment. We can now address these issues not only through the overall battery chemistry but also by observing the structure and operation of batteries at the nano- and even the atomic scale. In this talk\, I will present some new ideas about the design of batteries – from electric vehicles to consumer power on the grid – and share my perspective on the path to the batteries of the future. \nJoin us at the Panofsky Auditorium or online. Registration is required if you plan to attend the lecture in person. \nWe will also be streaming the lecture live on SLAC’s YouTube. You do not need to register if you plan to watch online. \nClick here for more information about the SLAC Public Lectures. \nAbout the Speaker: \nYi Cui is the Director of the Precourt Institute for Energy at Stanford University. He is the Fortinet Founders Professor in the Departments of Materials Science and Engineering and Energy Science and Engineering\, and a Professor at Photon Science at SLAC. He obtained his B.S. in chemistry from the University of Science and Technology of China in 1998 and his Ph.D. in physical chemistry from Harvard University in 2002. He joined the Stanford faculty in 2005. By now\, he has published 540 research papers in chemistry\, materials science\, and energy science\, earning him a #1 ranking in Thomson Reuter’s “World’s Most Influential Scientific Minds” in 2014\, the US Department of Energy’s Lawrence Award in 2020\, and election to the National Academy of Sciences in 2022. He has founded six companies to commercialize technologies developed by his research group: Amprius\, 4C Air\, EEnotech\, EnerVenue\, LifeLabs Design\, and EnnoPure. Amprius\, a leading high energy density battery company\, was recently listed (AMPX) in the New York Stock Exchange. \nAttend In Person: \nThe public lecture will be held in person at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory\, in the Panofsky Auditorium in the Science & User Support Building (SUSB). Parking is free and can be found in front of the SUSB. Doors open at 6:30 pm. The lecture will start promptly at 7 p.m. and conclude at 8 p.m. There will be opportunities to chat with the scientists following the event. Registration is required if you plan to attend the lecture in person. The deadline to register is Wednesday\, October 5\, 2022. \nCOVID-19 safety protocols: \nSLAC’s current COVID-19 safety protocols for visitors attending an on site event include 1) attendees are encouraged to perform COVID testing prior to the start of the event 2) wearing of a mask is highly recommended  3) social distance when possible 4) if you are feeling sick\, please stay home. \nTo join the public lecture in person\, you are required to follow all protocols and instructions from SLAC staff. We will provide updates to this event page if there are any changes to SLAC’s COVID-19 safety protocols.
