Announcing the winners of #RSCBatteriesPoster

#RSCBatteriesPoster is a spin-off event from the hugely popular #RSCPoster competition that runs in March each year. The spin-off event, held on 7–8 December, was aimed at driving the discussion on batteries research and innovation.

Research into batteries and energy storage is crucial for ensuring sustainable progress for our planet, and has been a key theme for us throughout COP26.

Our #RSCPoster events allow scientists at every career stage to share their research, network with colleagues and engage in debate, and #RSCBatteriesPoster was no exception. In the words of one of our judges, the event was "a great way to get to know energy storage researchers from around the world without having to leave my living room".

Ankur Sharma – @Anurgdev

IIT Bombay, India

Happy to share my work in #RSCBatteriesPoster Twitter Conference. Our recent work on throwing some new understanding and showcasing a possible way to render Li-NMCs stable at high voltages. The trick was to subtly tune the composition and structure #RSCEnergy #COP26 #PhDlife pic.twitter.com/jYneIfdpRF
