Inaugural lecture: Professor Ahmad Arabkoohsar

Dynamic Modeling of Thermo-Mechanical Energy Storage Technologies

While significant advances have been made in electrochemical storage technologies, we are still far from having batteries as optimal solutions for large-scale long-term electricity storage systems.

This is where thermo-mechanical energy storage solutions such as Carnot Batteries, Compressed Air Energy Storage, Liquid Air Energy Storage, etc. become important and promising.

Further development of these technologies regarding processes, materials, and integration into energy systems is critically required to enhance their competitive edges and accelerate their mass deployment worldwide.

The lecture is followed by a reception from 4 pm to 5 pm, offering an opportunity to network and celebrate David's professorship.
