Electrocatalysis for Energy Conversion and Storage
Prof A Cuesta Ciscar
Applications accepted all year round
Electrochemistry allows to convert chemical energy directly into electrical energy, and vice versa, with high efficiency and, therefore, electrochemical systems are excellent candidates to store energy from renewables and convert it back into work when needed.
