Workshop Battery Manufacturing

Objectives

Focus of the workshop are current European activities related to research, development and innovation in the domain of manufacturing of batteries for the electric vehicle. The approaches and first results of all collaborative research projects on batteries funded under the European Green Cars Initiative will be presented either orally or on posters. Furthermore, relevant pilot actions for battery cell and system manufacturing from select regions in Europe will be reviewed. Finally, opportunities for Europe to create added value by promoting joint research, linking pilots, and establishing new innovation flagships will be considered.

The invited experts include the coordinators of European collaborative research projects on batteries, leaders of major pilot activities for battery manufacturing, representatives of European companies from the field of energy storage cell and battery technology as well as research institutions and all involved Directorates General of the European Commission.
