The need for innovation in electrochemical conversion & storage 

The world is facing major challenges in the field of sustainability and energy supply. Innovations in electrochemical processes are essential to address these issues and ensure a green future. 

Promoting Knowledge Sharing and Collaboration

The symposium provides a platform for scientists, researchers, and industry professionals to share knowledge, exchange ideas, and create valuable collaborations. 

Inspiring Plenary Lectures by International Experts 

Enjoy two plenary lectures where leading experts share their insights on the latest developments and future trends in electrochemical conversions. 

Plenary speakers:

Ifan Stephens – Imperial college London

Ifan’s research is influencing the future of sustainable energy and eco-friendly industries. This includes creating electrolysis methods for storing renewable electricity, improving fuel cells as a possible zero-emission power source for vehicles, and innovating green chemical synthesis for more environmentally friendly industrial processes.

Marnix Wagemaker – Technical University of Delft

Marnix’s research focuses on electrochemical energy storage, particularly understanding battery processes at a fundamental level. He uses advanced techniques like operando neutron and X-ray methods, as well as solid-state NMR, to study structural and kinetic properties during charge and discharge cycles, aiming to improve battery performance.

Breakout sessions on current topics
