Batteries Europe’s Post

✨ ETIP PV is happy to start the year by announcing the creation of a new working group on 𝐏𝐕 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 driving research and innovation to enhance photovoltaic module and inverter efficiency, energy yield, reliability, and cost reduction, progressing from materials to pre-commercial prototypes. It aims to define research needs, promote Eco-design, and advance technologies to improve competitiveness and market readiness. 🙍♂️ 🙍♀️ The working group is led by Ralf Preu (Fraunhofer-Institut für Solare Energiesysteme ISE), Delfina Muñoz (CEA-Liten) and Bianca Lim (ISFH – Institut für Solarenergieforschung Hameln) and many other ETIP PV experts. 🔎 Get informed about the activities: https://lnkd.in/dwbDnAqi

Yesterday our German team visited the BVES Bundesverband Energiespeicher Systeme e.V. Investor Summit in Berlin. The event discussed the future of Energy Storage Systems, bringing together the leading players in the industry.   The Key Takeaways? 💡 The interest and relevance in large-scale battery projects is growing. This was demonstrated in the number of attendees, that was 10 times greater than in 2022!   Lawmakers are under great pressure to create regulatory frameworks that allow for large-scale projects to be economically sustainable. BVES is making significant progress in advocating the industry’s needs.   We are on the right track with our Battery Storage Pipeline at Copenhagen Energy, as the industry is continuously evolving, and investor interest keeps growing!   We are thrilled about these developments and excited for what's ahead! 🎉

From the 30th of June to the 3rd of July, the 33rd European Conference on Operational Research (EURO) took place in Copenhagen, hosted by the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Six of us had the opportunity to present and discuss our research in the following presentations:   Leonie Sara Plaga: Enhancing electricity system robustness through the application of a new time series cluster algorithm David Huckebrink: Integrated flexible heating and cooling under climate uncertainty in a European energy systems model Jonas Finke: Linking modelling to generate alternatives and market equilibria - On the economic interpretation of near-cost-optimal solutions in energy system models  Silke Johanndeiter: Price formation and intersectoral distributional effects in a fully decarbonized European electricity market Katharina Esser: Multi-Objective Optimisation for the Inverse Analysis of Design Requirements for Low Technology Readiness Level technologies from an Energy System Perspective Valentin Bertsch: Electrical energy storage investment requirements and operating characteristics in a gradually defossilised European power system   All in all, it was a successful conference with lots of exciting topics and new and old acquaintances.

🌍 At CES last week, Material Impact’s Paul Deninger took the stage alongside Barbara Humpton, CEO of Siemens, Takajiro Ishikawa, President & CEO of Mitsubishi Corporation (Americas), and John Penney, Chief Growth Officer of NextGen Foundry for the CES Great Minds session: Challenges & Solutions in the Energy Transition. The panel explored the cutting-edge engineering and financial strategies driving the clean energy revolution. From advancing renewable energy adoption to developing global models centered on non-CO2-emitting sources, the conversation highlighted both the challenges and opportunities in building a sustainable future. Paul shared our perspective on transforming deep tech innovation into scalable solutions. The message was clear: collaboration, creativity, and urgency are essential to creating a cleaner, more equitable energy future. You can watch their full session here: https://lnkd.in/e5cJbHEg

It's that time of year again, and All Energy Australia conference and exhibition is only next month! Looking forward to seeing what's coming next in the energy industry. Our Marketing team recently attended Intersolar Europe in Munich. Check out our latest blog on what we learnt and our key take aways from the event and what's happening in the industry. Intersolar Europe 2024 was not just an exhibition, but a glimpse into the future of energy. The event underscored the importance of innovation, collaboration, and communication in moving towards a sustainable energy future. Meeting industry leaders and exploring the advancements from companies like SolarEdge Technologies, GoodWe and BayWa r.e. Global was inspiring. The energy sector is undergoing a major transformation, and events like Intersolar and All Energy Australia play a crucial role in shaping its future. We’re excited to be part of this evolution and can’t wait to see what’s next. https://lnkd.in/gfeP8zsp #IntersolarEurope2024 #AllEnergy2024 #EVCharging #EnergyStorage #renewables #EnergyTransformation

🔄 Here is an update on the highlights of Austria in 2023, based on the 2023 Annual Report ⬇ 💭 Did you know that Austria has founded a Hydrogen Partnership to ensure a continuous exchange between companies, researchers, administrators, and the civil society that facilitates networking, and provides a place to showcase internationally, overview funding opportunities, and communicate current developments in the field of hydrogen? 💭 Did you know that the first projects of the hydrogen energy flagship region (WIVA P&G), seen as a nationwide hydrogen valley, has been completed? 💭 Did you know that the 5 Austrian “Important Projects of Common European Interest” (IPCEI) have started the research and development phase and are being funded with 125 million euros?

Take the opportunity to join the WIVA P&G webinar tomorrow, and hear #PROSE-employee and rolling stock expert Josef Kometer introduce the "Austrian H2 train know-how for the world" More details and sign-up in the post below 👇 #shapingtomorrowsmobility

ePAPHOS ADVISORS AT EERA POLICY CONFERENCE ABOUT Driving EU Competitiveness through Low-Carbon Energy Research & Innovation. A crucial aspect of the success of the European Green Deal lies in effectively executing the Clean Energy Transition (CET), a process entailing a comprehensive transformation of the energy system to realise a fair, environmentally sustainable, competitive, and climate-neutral society by 2050. The EERA community firmly believes that energy research and innovation (R&I) is essential for simultaneously advancing all aforementioned CET aspects. However, R&I is often overlooked as a key factor in boosting competitiveness.

Thanks to DISE ENERGY, Poland's prime think-tank working on energy and energy security, I was honoured to promote the Three Seas Initiative (3SI) agenda at the 10th Energy Congress in Wrocław. It was sheer pleasure to join a panel of distiguished speakers moderated by superb Zuzanna Nowak. Key points of my intervention: ✔ 3SI is a business-oriented format of regional collaboration in the spirit of "trusted connectivity". ✔ Energy has been the fundamental element of 3SI since its inception in 2015. ✔ The extraordinary dynamics around this format is due to its flexibility and well-defined strategic horizon. ✔ The EU-above-average economic performance of the 3SI countries make this vibrant region an attractive and prospective destination for global businesses. ✔ Energy sector will finds its due place at the 3SI Business Forum on 28-29 April in Warsaw.
