NL-NRW Battery workshop “Meet the Dutch”
Aachen, Friday 14 October 2022
We are delighted to invite you to this Dutch-German workshop focused on Battery Technology, in Aachen on October 14, 2022!
For both Germany as the Netherlands, efficient and sustainable battery technologies are essential for the success of the energy transition and the mobility of the future. Battery technologies are the foundation for new value chains in Europe. Companies from Germany maintain economic relations with the Dutch battery ecosystem. Research institutes in Germany and the Netherlands are collaborating on international research projects in the field of battery technology.
At this event, experts from the battery industry and research institutions meet and discuss topics like the sustainability of batteries, material efficiency and recycling, digitalization of production process and battery life cycle, innovative testing and certification methods, and next-generation battery cells.
This event in Aachen is part of the visit of a delegation of Dutch battery experts to Baden-Württemberg and Nordrhein-Westfalen. We bring together key players from the Dutch ecosystem and German academia, government and the private sector. You will have the possibility to exchange knowledge and have interdisciplinary discussions with experts from different fields.
