To overcome climate change,
we need to build a future with low carbon electricity systems.
Energy storage is the key to that future.
Today, energy is as important as water and food.
Energy consumption will become significantly higher due to an increasing world population and new technologies such as e-mobility. This transformation is epochal, changing consumption, habits, systems and whole industries.
At the same time, the world community needs to join forces to stop global warming and to enable a circular economy in which no element causes lasting harm and human rights are respected.
We are in the midst of a fundamental, application-driven research, which will expand the range of energy storage and battery solutions with more and more advanced propositions. It will be fascinating to find out which technologies and solutions will emerge and prevail.
Superior energy density, shorter charging time, longer lifetime, improved safety and effective recyclability are among those ambitious demands that we, as stakeholders, are called to satisfy. Solutions for these demands can only be created by interdisciplinary teamwork along the entire battery value chain.
Along this battery value chain, the numerous market participants
bring many different and valuable perspectives to the table.
Their needs revolve around topics such as:
