About
Wolfgang Wentzel is a leading figure in the strategic advancement of next-generation energy storage, with his research deeply embedded in the European Battery 2030+ initiative. His primary contributions lie in shaping the roadmap for inventing the "batteries of the future," focusing on the critical intersection of materials discovery, sustainable manufacturing, and large-scale research collaboration. Wentzel’s most cited work, the 2022 editorial for the *Battery 2030+ Large-Scale Research Initiative Roadmap* (11 citations), outlines a visionary framework to accelerate the transition to a carbon-neutral economy. This paper directly addresses the urgent, unprecedented demand for batteries driven by the European Green Deal, proposing a radical reinvention of how batteries are invented. By synthesizing the goals of a vast consortium, Wentzel helps define a unified, long-term strategy for achieving high-performance, sustainable, and safe battery technologies. His work is pivotal for students and researchers seeking to understand the grand challenges and collaborative pathways that will shape the future of electrification and energy storage.
