Explore the history of UC San Diego''s Energy Storage Group—from early EV battery research to leading carbon capture and microgrid integration projects.
We measure renewable energy by tracking the number and capacity of new solar installations and the increase in incentivized energy storage projects in the SDG&E service territory.
Advancing energy storage technologies to unlock the full power of solar, wind, and other renewable energy sources. Founded in 2012, our mission is to develop and test storage solutions that accelerate the transition to a clean energy future.
Together they perform basic and applied research in fusion, solar energy, fuel cells, energy storage, and related disciplines. CER also sponsors energy-related lectures, symposiums, and academic conferences.
Discover how UC San Diego''s Energy Storage Group is driving the future of renewable energy with cutting-edge research in battery storage, microgrids, and carbon removal.
As San Diego and the world continue to invent new ways to maximize energy output from clean resources, a new challenge arises of how and where to store that clean energy.
In addition to electricity, a 300-ton absorption chiller captures waste heat from the fuel cell to produce chilled water that is stored in the nearby Thermal Energy Storage system. Energy Storage UC San Diego is a global leader in advanced
It enables researchers, utilities, and industry partners to test, validate, and refine emerging energy technologies in a real-world, grid-connected environment.
