Energy Storage with 2nd Life Batteries
First ELSA stakeholder workshop
2.5. - 3.5.2016, Aachen, GermanyRegister now for the first ELSA stakeholder workshop on the topic "Energy Storage with 2nd Life Batteries". In the project ELSA , battery storage systems consisting of 2nd life batteries from electric vehicles will be tested at six pilot sites across Europe. The first workshop will be held on the 2nd and 3rd of May at the E.ON Energy Research Center of the RWTH Aachen, which is one of the ELSA pilot sites.
With our first workshop, we especially address stakeholders in the energy and building domain. Apart from presenting the ELSA battery storage system and its six pilot sites, this workshop will offer its participants the opportunity to discuss expectations and needs with regard to small to medium-scale storage solutions for the building and for the energy sector.
Participants of the workshop will:
- Learn more about the ELSA storage system and its use cases – from of-fice building to industrial site to local grid
- Discuss business opportunities for small and medium-scale storage so-lutions
- Debate with other practitioners needs and current barriers for implementing storage solutions
- Visit the E.ON Energy Research Center in Aachen where the ELSA storage system will be installed
- Meet interesting participants from various sectors at our networking event
- Participation is free of charge
