In the research network »PREDICTOR« (Grant Agreement No. 101168943), 17 international doctoral candidates aim to develop fast, high-throughput methods to identify and develop materials for electrochemical energy storage using computational
modeling, automated synthesis, AI-based optimization, and standardized data management. This integrated approach will be validated through the development and testing of three new redox-flow battery types. The combined work of the 17 researchers will solve interdisciplinary challenges in this very promising field of energy storage, so that academic know-how can be quickly transferred into applications for industry and society.
»PREDICTOR« is led by the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology ICT and funded by the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Program of the European Union. Alongside its research objectives, the network aims to prepare its doctoral candidates for a future career in academia or industry. An interdisciplinary European consortium of industrial companies and research organizations will train each doctoral candidate in the skills needed to develop and integrate the new models, materials, and processes in electrochemical energy storage applications.
