Energy Storage Symposium 2017

28 – 29 September 2017
Venue: ROM-EST, ICSI Rm. Valcea, Romania

The symposium aims to bring together keynote speakers with both academic and
corporate background in order to initiate a high-level dialogue potentially capable of
unlocking the status-quo surrounding energy storage. Regarded as a key enabling element
of the energy transition, energy storage finds itself in a place where technologies are
developing, costs are dropping and the creation of a regulatory context has started: it is
gaining momentum. Join our first Energy Storage Symposium to exchange ideas and
identify opportunities in how you can participate to the development and unlocking the
potential of this critical sector.

Topics:
• Novel technologies and materials for energy storage
• Advancements in the field of Lithium-based batteries
• The role of hydrogen in energy storage
• Energy storage in the mobility sector
• Thermal energy storage
• Niche applications for energy storage integration
• Energy storage policy and standardization

Questions:
• Is any of the energy storage technologies arising as a “silver bullet”?
• What are the new trends in Li-Ion battery design and development?
• How to identify cost saving opportunities for energy storage?
• Is energy storage ready to provide ancillary services?
• What are the economics of thermal energy storage?
• What incentives are available for energy storage?
• What is the current regulatory context for energy storage?
