The European Battery Hub invents a new way of studying batteries with synchrotron techniques, based on sharing ideas, beamtime and data.
We develop a correlative analysis approach of batteries using different synchrotron techniques.
• 6 core beamlines provide structural, morphological and chemical information
• Holistic understanding of reaction and degradation mechanisms
• At the scale of particles, components and cells
• Community tools such as cells, standards and protocols

Battery research needs more reliable, representative and reproducible synchrotron characterizations
Jakub Drnec & Sandrine Lyonnard - Nature Nanotechnology, 20, 584-587 (2025)
Synchrotron techniques can probe battery materials and devices at unprecedented scales of time and space, providing in-depth mechanistic understanding. However, the lack of standardization in synchrotron measurements and analyses can lead to biased interpretations of data and results. Here, we propose possible strategies to address the reliability, representativeness and reproducibility issues of synchrotron characterizations in battery research.
