UK Redox Flow Battery Network (UK RFBN)

The intention of the meeting and workshop is to invite academic research groups, industry (not necessarily working on RFBs) and potential technology users to a forum, to outline and discuss the key challenges and opportunities offered by the fast emerging field of flow battery technology. It is key that industry and business partners are identified early on, and synergies between academia and industry are identified, to enable progression in this aspect of electrochemical energy storage. In light of the Faraday Challenge it is even more important for communities of academics, industry and potetnial users to come together and identify synergies and collaborations. This will be a major aspect of the interactive workshop in this year's annual meeting.

The network aims to engage with all researchers interested in electrochemical energy storage across the United Kingdom so please do join us and help us shape our future research and networking activities.

Speakers

Invited talks are to be delivered by UK RFB Network members from across the country.

Ana Sobrido Sustainable Freestanding Electrodes for Redox Flow Batteries

Jack Mitchinson Polyoxometalates for redox flow batteries

Evan Wenbo Zhao In Situ NMR - Reaction Mechanisms and Electron Transfer Rates in an Operating Flow Battery

Craig Armstrong Non-Aqueous Flow Batteries - is there a future?

Poster Session and Three-slide group research overview

Attendees are invited to submit a poster title only

PIs are asked to prepare a 3-slide Powerpoint presentation to overview the research group/company. These will be presented in the morning of the meeting.
