The aim of this proposal is to establish a Core Activity within the UK Centre for Advanced Materials for Energy Generation and Transmission along the lines of the national Supergen Consortia in Energy Engineering. We anticipate being one of three Cores comprising an overall Centre activity and expect to play an important role in delivering such a Centre. Here, we build our case around the most critical element in many manifestations of Energy Materials applications, the interfaces between the active elements. The interface between active components and, indeed, the surface are usually of great importance in determining the functionality of any energy materials application. For example, the critical region determining the performance and lifetime of most electrochemical systems is normally at the electrode side of the electrode/electrolyte interface.The proposal is split into three components: (1) Platform Research within the Core (60%); (2) Flexible Funding for collaborative research with University & Industry Partners outside the Core (30%), using which we will seek to build up capability through pump-priming and proof of concept studies. Thirdly, this will be strongly supported through interactions and collaborations through (3) Networking and Outreach (10%). The grouping not only offers strong expertise in a broad range of Energy Materials, but also brings together diverse skills and disciplines in a highly complementary manner to address exciting research challenges at Energy Materials interfaces.

该提案的目的是在英国高级材料中心建立核心活动，以沿国家能源工程领域的国家超级财团的渠道发电和传播。我们预计是包括整个中心活动的三个内核之一，并期望在提供这样一个中心方面发挥重要作用。在这里，我们在能源材料应用的许多表现（活动元素之间的界面）中围绕最关键的要素建立案例。活跃组件之间的界面以及表面在确定任何能源材料应用的功能方面通常非常重要。例如，确定大多数电化学系统的性能和寿命的关键区域通常位于电极/电解质界面的电极侧。该提案分为三个组成部分：（1）核心内的平台研究（60％）； （2）与核心之外的大学和工业合作伙伴合作研究的灵活资金（30％），我们将寻求通过泵送和概念研究证明来建立能力。第三，通过（3）网络和推广（10％），通过互动和协作来强烈支持这一点。该分组不仅在各种能源材料中提供了强大的专业知识，而且还以高度互补的方式汇集了各种技能和学科，以应对能源材料界面的令人兴奋的研究挑战。
