Danish Battery Symposium 2014

at Haldor Topsøe A/S

Friday, 28th of February 2014

from 9.40 am to 5 pm

Since the foundation of the Danish Battery Society one year ago, we have noticed significant interest in collaboration and knowledge sharing – both within and outside the society and both nationally and internationally.

To facilitate this further, we have decided to host a yearly battery symposium.

The main focus of the symposium is on current and future battery activities in Denmark with updates from research and industry. To give an international perspective on the development, we have invited four international speakers working with atomic layer deposition of thin-film batteries, SEM and TEM characterization of Battery materials and high-power battery integration. We have posted the agenda for the symposium along with the agenda for the general meeting here on our website.

DKK 200 for student members (Bachelor- and master-student members)

After the symposium we will host a dinner. The society will cover half of the dinner costs so that we can offer this possibility for only DKK 200 per participant. You can sign up for the conference and as a member at the same time to get your discount at our website.

Our Goal

The battery research is blooming in Denmark and a number of Danish companies are already focusing on developing materials and implementing batteries in commercial products.

The active players in Denmark are often small groups and to compete internationally, we see a need for exchange of knowledge and experience, i.e. characterization methods, lab facilities, types of batteries and market trends.

In recent years a number of interest groups have been founded to meet a need of sharing knowledge within a specific type of battery chemistry or a specific application of batteries, but so far no association has tried to gather and share information across the various research areas.

The purpose of the Danish Battery Society is to create a forum to share knowledge through targeted events and an annual meeting.
