Electrical engineer David Wetz believes we’ve only just begun to tap the potential of batteries. His goal is to make them store more energy in smaller packages for much larger applications. This is particularly important to the wind and solar industries, which rely on stored energy when it is dark or the wind isn’t blowing.
“The goal is to store more energy, design smaller packages that can release that energy quickly and at a higher power, and improve safety so they can be used anywhere,” Dr. Wetz explains.
He and Professor Wei-Jen Lee were named affiliate partners of Argonne National Laboratory’s Joint Center for Energy Storage Research, which aims to create batteries that are five times more powerful—and five times less expensive—than current ones within five years.
