- Abstract
- The world is steadily transitioning towards renewable energy sources to mitigate climate change and achieve sustainability goals. The last five years oversaw unprecedented growth in wind and solar energy production. Unfortunately, increased production does not affirm access at the discretion of the same. The seasonal nature of renewable energy sources engenders an imbalance between supply and demand, as illustrated above. Alarmingly, this effect has raised loads on existing fossil fuel power plants during demand peaks, exacerbating global emissions. Therefore, reliable energy storage is indispensable to reconcile this disproportion and thus achieve a continuous supply of renewable energy. Contemporary storage options, however, suffer severe limitations in terms of affordability and geographical constraints.As a mechanical engineer, I develop novel batteries for seamless integration into current electricity grids. With a broad arsenal of experimental and computational techniques, I explore potential energy storage materials with a high emphasis on size, cost, durability, and safety at the design level. I believe that innumerable candidates are waiting to be discovered, only to dethrone the existing ones and become ubiquitous in no time. In essence, my research fixates me on pushing limits in the accessibility of green energy and accelerating the decarbonization of our economies.
