High-performance energy storage requires advances in materials and components as well as in manufacturing, power electronics and system integration. At the same time, the interplay between technology, market conditions and the electricity grid determines how battery storage can be successfully deployed.
The event “Battery Technology and Energy Storage – From Materials to Applications” brings together perspectives from research and industry, offering insights into selected developments across these fields. The programme ranges from industrial electrode and battery cell manufacturing to nanoengineering approaches for high-voltage capacitors, advances in power electronics and the practical implementation of battery storage projects.
The focus is on the connections between materials development, technical components and real-world applications. Presentations will explore both technological advances and the challenges of industrial implementation and integrating battery storage into the electricity grid.
The event provides opportunities to exchange ideas, discuss application-oriented questions and explore potential collaborations between academia and industry.
