Powering the Future: UK–EU Battery RD&I Partnerships, 15–16 Oct 2025

Event Timing: 15 October 2025, 12:00 – 16 October 2025, 14:00
Event Address: Press Club Bruxelles Europe, Rue Froissart 95, 1040 Bruxelles, Belgique

BEPA, Battery 2030+ and the UK’s Faraday Institution are organising a two-day battery workshop in Brussels to explore closer alignment between EU and UK RD&I and policy programmes. The EU-UK reset talks in May and the UK’s associate membership of the Horizon Europe programme provide the underpinning to re-establish strong partnerships in this crucial technology area.

This is at a time when it is clear that to be internationally competitive, working collaboratively provides a much needed pooling of talent and scale. There is a strong need to collectively support the transition of Europe’s automotive industry, together with other sectors that electrification will support, e.g. grid storage, defence and aviation. Scaling of European battery manufacturing is essential as is developing the materials supply chains and minerals processing capability. Regulation and incentives will be important as is cooperation around the circular economy, rules of origin and the battery passport.

The workshop will bring together researchers, funders, policy makers and industry to create a report with recommended focus areas for cooperation.

Fields & Topics

NanoInnovation brings together scientists, researchers, and industry professionals to discuss the most recent developments in the field of nanotechnology and its applications. The event typically features plenary and keynote speeches, scientific symposia for presentations, and poster sessions. Presentations cover a wide range of fields and topics. In particular, multi-track sessions with parallel thematic symposia are scheduled on September 17 – 18 – 19. Each of the twelve multi-track sessions will include parallel thematic symposia, each of them of 90 minutes. Some thematic symposia are part of workshops and special events while others are organized independently.
In addition, there are roundtable discussions, workshops, and networking events to facilitate collaborations and knowledge exchange among participants. Past editions of NanoInnovation have attracted hundreds of attendees from around the world, including leading scientists, policymakers, and business leaders. NanoInnovation provides a platform for researchers, scientists, and industry professionals to share the latest advances and foster collaborations.
In this page, you can discover all the fields and topics that will be explored during the current edition and the related thematic symposia, workshops and special events, as soon as their schedules will be available.

The ELectroLytes and Interfaces in PoSt-Li BatteriEs (ELLIPSE Conference) will take place from September 15 to 16, 2025 in Ulm, Germany. As a Satellite Meeting of the International Society of Electrochemistry (ISE), we bring together the world’s top speakers in the field of electrolytes and interfaces in post-lithium batteries. The conference will feature contributions on post-Li battery chemistries, electrolytes, interfaces, interphases, advanced characterization, modeling, charge transfer and more.

You are warmly invited to the ELLIPSE Conference to be held in Ulm.

Ulm, a charming city in the southwest of Germany, is nestled on the banks of the Danube River. With a history dating back to the 9th century, Ulm seamlessly blends medieval and modern elements, making it a unique and vibrant destination. The city is perhaps best known for the Ulm Minster, a towering Gothic cathedral boasting the world’s tallest steeple, which offers breathtaking views of the surrounding region.

Strolling through Ulm’s picturesque streets, one can encounter well-preserved half-timbered houses, quaint squares, and the bustling atmosphere of its marketplaces. The city also prides itself on its academic and cultural institutions, including the University of Ulm, which drives innovation and research.

A significant figure in Ulm’s history is Albert Einstein, the renowned physicist, who was born here in 1879. Although Einstein’s family moved to Munich when he was just a year old, Ulm honors his legacy with various memorials and an enduring sense of pride in their native son.

In Ulm, the past and present coexist harmoniously, creating a city that is as historically rich as it is forward-looking.
