Energy transition and decarbonization

European workshop on nanotechnologies & advanced materials for batteries

The European workshop on nanotechnologies & advanced materials for batteries, organized by the European projects MAT4BAT, ALION and BASMATI, with the support of EMIRI and the European Commission, will gather coordinators of European projects, as well as technology and market experts, and representatives from the industry. It will take place on the 23rd and 24th of February at Umicore headquarters (Rue du Marais 31, Brussels)

 

The workshop will aim at:

  1. Highlighting key results of the FP7 and H2020 projects in the field of nanotechnologies & advanced materials for batteries, covering a wide spectrum of applications (including mobility and stationary energy storage)
  2. Identifying common R&I priorities in order to bridge the gap between the lab and the market, and providing recommendations for the future European work programmes
  3. Collecting the views of stakeholders on how Europe can answer to the energy storage challenge from the perspective of advanced materials, and explore the way towards a clustering activity in the field of materials for batteries

Expect keynote talks (technology watch, market evolution, policy context) by experts and representatives from the industry as well as presentations of European projects by the project coordinators: current status and future R&I needs.
