Research Interests:

Electrochemical energy storage has enabled the mobile technology revolution of the past decades. Now we need it to enable the transition to a carbon-neutral energy economy. Batteries are currently the most advanced technology for this purpose. Dr. Kuss is interested in the complex physical and chemical interactions of materials in batteries. His expertise lies in the synthesis and characterization of materials, especially in electrochemical applications. He has worked with leading academics in Canada, the US and the UK on energy storage and corrosion topics, and collaborated with industry partners, including General Motors, Johnson Matthey and Dyson.
