Welcome Letter
The International Coalition for Energy
Storage and Innovation (ICESI) is a new international professional organization
focusing on the science and technology challenges for grid scale energy and
renewable energy integration. Energy storage is among the top priorities for
current and future energy infrastructure and modern technologies. Although the
need and significance of energy storage are widely recognized, there is not an
internationally recognized body that can function as a central platform or
authority to address the long term scientific and technological challenges for wide
spread deployment of energy storage technologies on electric grid. Furthermore,
there is a large gap between the market needs, the manufacture industry, and
the scientific community on the vision and the pathway forward to enable large
scale adoption of storage technologies.
The purpose of ICESI is to establish an international
forum to connect and industry in the world to address the long term scientific
and technological challenges for the development and deployment of scalable
energy storage technologies for electric grid and emerging market applications,
and to serve as the authority, spokesperson and advocator for supporting energy
storage research. In addition, ICESI will help identify the gaps in science,
markets and technologies to promote collaboration in the international community
and collaborations between the research community and industry, provide
realistic assessment of current and future technologies, and provide guidance
for long term research and long term investment.
ICESI will also recognize and
promote significant scientific and technological advances, individuals and
teams who have made significant contributions in the field, establish new
platforms and mechanisms to integrate and utilize the best resources in the
scientific community and solve major scientific and technology challenges of
key technologies, and speed up the transfer of these technologies to industry.
