19th International Symposium on Polymer Electrolytes (ISPE-19)

19th International Symposium on Polymer Electrolytes (ISPE-19)

Eka. 01 - 05. Eka, 2026 Kod. 012-26

Azalpena

ISPE-19 will take place at Donostia–San Sebastián on 1-5 June, 2026

Nowadays, there is an urgent need to find efficient and sustainable materials to produce clean energy and to store it in the near future. Polymer electrolytes are key materials in the transition to sustainable and clean energy technologies such as energy storage and conversion. The versability and unique properties of polymer materials lend them the potential to speed up the clean energy transition. This symposium seeks to provide fruitful discussions between chemists, physicists, electrochemists, engineers, etc. from around the world thanks to highlighted scientific talks of next-generation electrochemical devices based on polymer electrolytes.

We are delighted to welcome you to Donostia–San Sebastián, a pioneering city that work and support of over 50 public and private entities from strategic sectors such as biosciences, nanotechnology, energy, and ICT. Its commitment to local policies supporting innovation and scientific excellence promote knowledge exchange and collaborations. The symposium will take place at the Miramar Palace (https://www.miramar.eus/en/the-palace/). It will be five-day program including plenary talks, keynotes, invited talks, oral sessions, poster presentations, and activities specifically designed to support and connect senior and young researchers in polymer electrolyte field.

Irune Villaluenga Arranz

POLYMAT

Irune Villaluenga is an Ikerbasque Associate Professor and Ramon & Cajal Fellow at POLYMAT, University of the Basque Country in Spain. She obtained her PhD in Chemistry at the University of the Basque Country and Tecnalia Research & Innovation (2010). She did post-doctoral stays at CIC Energigune (2011-2012) and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory/University of California, Berkeley (2013-2016). Her current research interests include the development and understanding of novel inorganic-polymer hybrids, bio-based polymer and nanostructured block copolymers for energy storage applications.

Didier Devaux

Since 2016, Didier Devaux is a CNRS research scientist at LEPMI lab. (Univ. Grenoble Alpes, Univ. Savoie Mont Blanc, CNRS, Grenoble INP) on electrochemical energy storage devices. He graduated in 2012 with a PhD in materials science on electrochemical and physico-chemical characterizations of polymer electrolytes for Li metal battery. He is focusing on the analysis of the functioning and failure modes of electrochemical energy storage devices by coupling techniques (in-situ and operando methodologies), notably using X-ray and Neutron techniques with electrochemistry and impedance. The objective being to tackle the phenomena at stake at the different relevant length scales typically from the local (nm) to the cell (cm) scale in devices comprising liquid, solid, and hybrid electrolytes.

Sustainable development goals

2030 Agenda da nazioarteko garapenerako agenda berria. Nazio Batuen Erakundeak onartu zuen 2015eko irailean eta giza garapen jasangarriaren aldeko tresna eraginkorra izan nahi du planeta osoan. Haren zutabe nagusiak dira pobrezia errotik desagerraraztea, zaurgarritasunak eta desberdintasunak urritzea, eta jasangarritasuna bultzatzea. Aukera paregabea eskaintzen du mundua 2030. urtea baino lehen aldatzeko eta pertsona guztien giza eskubideak bermatzeko.

Garapen jasangarrirako helburuak

7 - Energia irisgarria eta ez kutsagarria

Pertsona guztiek energia eskuragarria, fidagarria, jasangarria eta modernoa izango dutela bermatzea. Gai gakoak: eskuragarritasun unibertsala, energia garbien proportzioa handitzea, energia eraginkortasuna, ikerketa, energia azpiegituretan eta teknologia garbietan inbertsioa sustatzea, energia zerbitzu moderno eta jasangarriak.
