FULL DETAILS |  AGENDA  ATTENDEE LIST PRESENTATION LIBRARY

Cleantech Council delegates meet monthly to discover startups and innovation across clean, green, and sustainable technologies and build community with colleagues from like-minded corporations committed to paving the road to a sustainable future through partnership. This month we review innovation in Battery Tech.

ABOUT THE TOPIC

Batteries are critical to electrification, and electrification is critical to carbon neutrality. So Cleantech Council members and investors keep a close eye on innovation and startups in battery tech. This month, we are focusing on new technologies for big batteries and large-scale energy storage – specifically Battery Electric Energy Storage (BESS) and Electric Vehicle (EV) batteries. Join in person or online for an agenda packed with tech experts, battery startups, energy investors, and plenty of time for demos and networking.

MEETING FORMAT

This agenda includes an expert panel, including Director of Applications Engineering at Lunar Energy and President & COO at Sakuu, sharing insight on what we can expect from Battery Electric Storage Systems over the next few years and up to 5 startups driving the BESS into this bright future. From there, we break for demos followed by a fireside chat with Co-Founder & VP of Technology at Qnovo and a group of startups relevant to EV batteries. As with all Autotech Council meetings includes in-room demo and meeting tables, startup pitches, and of course plenty of time for networking over lunch.
