The first half century of lithium batteries and the challenges facing us in moving forward
The Nobel Prize Committee said of John Goodenough, M. Stanley Whittingham and Akira Yoshino’s lithium-ion batteries: “They have laid the foundation of a wireless, fossil fuel-free society, and are of the greatest benefit to humankind.” Now the world needs to take action, addressing the key challenge of building a sustainable supply chain and manufacturing capability that leapfrogs present battery technology, to foster sustainable manufacturing and use.
The Vice Chancellor, Prof Irene Tracey, CBE, FRS, FMedSci, will be in attendance.
