Ulsan Advanced Energy Technology R&D Center

Ulsan Advanced Energy Technology R&D Center is developing core technologies for next-generation energy technologies spanning from next-generation secondary batteries, solar cells to hydrogen utilization fields by building one-stop research infrastructures for materials systheses/depositions, cell fabrications to characterizations. Based on these activities, we aim to meet the technological needs of SMEs located in Busan-Ulsan-Kyungsang areas.
