Simulation and evaluation of sustainable climate trajectories for aviation
In 2019, aviation was responsible for 2.6% of world CO2 emissions as well as additional climate impacts such as contrails. Like all industrial sectors, the
Jean-Marie Tarascon is a world-renowned researcher, Professor at the Collège de France, holder of the prestigious “Solid-State Chemistry – Energy” chair.
His cutting-edge research focuses on battery materials and electrolytes, novel reactivity concepts, next-generation chemistries beyond lithium, and advanced sensing technologies. With over 700 scientific papers, ~100 patents, and numerous awards—including the 2020 Balzan Prize and the 2022 CNRS Gold Medal—Professor Tarascon is one of the foremost leaders in his field.
His captivating lecture on “Batteries: Indispensable but Perfectible Allies for Tomorrow’s World” shed light on the incremental advancements expected in chemistry and engineering, while broadening perspectives on the future of the industrial and recycling environment for batteries.
Following the presentation, Laurent Joly, Director of ISA, highlighted the challenges of aeronautical applications and asked Professor Tarascon for his thoughts on the technological scenarios for using electrochemical energy storage in aircraft propulsion electrification.
A heartfelt thank you to Jean-Marie Tarascon, Laurent Joly, and Marc Ivaldi, the host of this webinar.
