OMES Symposium - Optimal Management of Electrical Energy Storage
Join us at the OMES symposium where experts from across the battery value chain share the latest developments shaping the electrical storage landscape, with a particular focus on safety, reliability and real-world performance.
A full day of innovation and networking
Battery safety is a key challenge in the energy transition. Join this year’s industrial frontrunners and battery experts from VITO/EnergyVille to explore how advanced diagnostics, battery state estimation and monitoring technologies are enabling safer and more reliable battery systems. The symposium combines scientific insights, technical presentations and live demonstrations.
The symposium includes several networking opportunities and visits to exhibitor booths. During the lunch break, attendees can tour EnergyVille’s state-of-the-art Battery Testing Lab.
