Our lab focuses on advancing sustainable energy technologies by innovating materials and devices for energy conversion and storage. We specialize in developing functional materials, characterizing their properties, and optimizing their performance in real-world applications.
This repository hosts software tools for automating cycling data acquisition and analysis. By centralizing these tools, we aim to enhance research efficiency, foster collaboration, and drive progress in sustainable energy technology development.
Corsin Battaglia is directing the laboratory Materials for Energy Conversion at Empa, the Swiss Federal Laboratories of Materials Science and Technology, and is Adjunct Professor of Electrical Engineering at ETH Zurich, Department of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering and Adjunct Professor of Materials Science at EPFL, School of Engineering, Institute of Materials. His current research focuses on sustainable next-generation lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries, post-lithium-ion batteries, and the electrochemical conversion of CO₂ to synthetic fuels.
After receiving his PhD in Physics from the Université de Neuchâtel, he was a postdoctoral researcher at EPFL, the University of California Berkeley, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories, before joining Empa in 2014. He is co-author of ~200 peer-reviewed scientific publications and 8 patent applications. He is currently the vice-president of the Swiss Battery Association iBAT, member of the Alistore European Research Institute, Swiss representative in the long-term large-scale European battery initiative Battery2030, scientific committee member of the Upcell Alliance, and founding member of the Battery European Partnership Association.
