Brief description: Meeting the global energy challenge requires cleaner energy technologies, including energy storage solutions. Most commercially available batteries are based on inorganic materials. All-organic batteries are a promising alternative, using sustainably sourced materials with a lower environmental impact. One of the main challenges has centred on the design of electrodes with sufficient electronic and ionic conduction to enable reversible oxidation (via loss of electrons) and reduction of redox polymers (via gain of electrons). With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the RPOB project is developing novel redox polymers with mixed electronic and ionic conduction properties. This approach could enhance electrode loading for the realisation of practical all-organic solid-state batteries.
