The Stanford StorageX Initiative, launched by Precourt Institute in 2019, is Stanford's energy storage initiative that creates a global community of academics, industrialists, thought leaders and government officials interested in research, development and scale-up of energy storage as a critical aspect/component of the global energy transformation.  The transformation to sustainable energy systems will touch everyone, and every aspect of people's lives, as well as blur and redefine traditional industrial segments and boundaries. The intermittent nature of renewable power generation and the pursuit of zero carbon/low carbon energy for transportation, heat, industry, and power all rely on advances in energy storage, from short duration to seasonal storage.  The research, development, and scale-up of advanced low cost efficient energy storage is the compelling vision behind the Stanford StorageX Initiative. 

Listed below are the projects that the Precourt Institute for Energy and the Stanford StorageX Initiative have funded. If you are interested in having access to research materials from a specific group below, please email kayleeng@stanford.edu
