Center for Electrochemical Energy Science
CEESThe Center for Electrochemical Energy Science (CEES), led by Argonne National Laboratory, is a partnership that includes Northwestern University, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and Purdue University. These institutions bring a world-class team of scientists to develop a fundamental understanding about electrochemical processes at interfaces and within materials inherent to energy storage systems to advance this critical national and societal need.
CEES aims to understand the electrochemical reactivity of oxide materials and their interfaces under the extreme conditions relevant to energy storage systems, and create a robust fundamental understanding of electrochemically driven reactivity using lithium-ion battery chemistry as a well-defined model system.
