Energy Storage Innovators Doeff and Weber Honored by Electrochemical Society

Adam Weber, senior scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), and Marca Doeff,  retired senior scientist from LBNL, were honored as inaugural recipients of the Electrochemical Society's San Francisco Section Awards.

The San Francisco Section Award was established in 2021 to recognize excellence in the field of electrochemical science and technology and/or solid-state science and technology; acknowledge service to The Electrochemical Society; and advance and encourage electrochemistry and solid-state science and technology as a profession.

Weber leads the Energy Conversion Group at LBNL. He co-directs the Million Mile Fuel Cell Truck Consortium and is Chief Technology Officer of the Alliance for Renewable Clean Energy Systems (ARCHES). As an expert on fuel cells, flow batteries for grid-scale energy storage, and other electrochemical devices, he has co-authored more than 200 peer-reviewed articles.

Doeff published more than 160 peer-reviewed studies and patents related to materials for lithium-ion, sodium-ion, and solid-state batteries. She also serves as the current Secretary of the Electrochemical Society.
