Hungarian Battery Week 2024 was a success, and the interest and support for the event was reflected in the record breaking attendance, with several informative speeches and panel discussions. Co-organized with White Paper Consulting, the event took place between November 6-8 at the Hungexpo Budapest Congress and Exhibition Center.
Our event, launched in 2021 as the Hungarian Battery Day, was extended to a three-day event for the first time this year. During the two-day conference, 62 renowned experts, including national and international speakers gave presentations or participated in roundtable discussions on key topics such as sustainable battery technologies, battery recycling and the development of satisfactory regulatory environment.
In addition to Hungary, acclaimed experts from around the world came to Budapest to give presentations and hold roundtable discussions on current issues related to energy transition and energy storage technologies. Thore Sekkenes, EBA Program Director of the European Battery Alliance and Patrick Clerens, Secretary General of the European Association for the Storage of Energy spoke on the development trends and regulatory environment of the European battery value chain. On the opening day Jason Chen, General Manager, Operations CATL Europe spoke about the latest technology trends and challenges facing the battery industry.
On the last day of the Hungarian Battery Week, participants had the opportunity to visit SungEel Hitech's battery recycling plant, where they were able to see first-hand the latest technologies used to process end-of-life batteries.
We would like to thank everyone who participated! We are especially grateful to our sponsors, partners, and the conference audience, without whose contributions none of this would have been possible.
