 The transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy has brought about a rapid increase in the availability of clean electricity.
 However, electricity generated from sources such as wind and solar are limited to intermittent operation due to daily and seasonal variation.
 One solution is to utilize electrochemical devices in energy storage and electrochemical manufacturing applications, where they can harness surplus energy and decarbonize chemical industries traditionally reliant on petrochemical feedstocks.

+Managing the growing prevalence of renewable energy underscores the importance of developing and scaling up these technologies, which can in turn facilitate the achievement of carbon emission reduction commitments of companies and developed economies.
 Likewise, the electrification of transport creates an increasing need for energy-dense electrochemical energy storage devices such as batteries and supercapacitors.
 Naturally, simulation tools are required to assist in the design of efficient and industrial-scale electrochemical devices.

 These devices have many applications, from miniaturized lithium-ion batteries for medical devices up to industrial-scale hydrogen fuel cells for backup power generation.
 Energy storage devices include batteries and supercapacitors, as well as flow batteries, which utilize a flowing electrolyte instead of a stationary liquid or polymer electrolyte.
 Electrolyzers are devices that use electrical energy to perform electrochemical reactions.

+Simulation is an important tool for predicting the performance of electrochemical devices, as well as assisting in their design.
 As technologies get scaled up from the laboratory scale to industrial scale, experiments become less tractable and therefore simulation increasingly important.
 Naturally, the scalability of simulators is crucial.
 Furthermore, many existing models and codes are just one dimensional.
