Nordic innovation and competence in LFP batteries recycling

About the worskhop

In this workshop you will meet and interact with researchers and other stakeholders from Nordic countries in the field of LFP battery recycling.

Together we can strengthen our collaboration, share our competences, but also the challenges related to LFP recycling and handling.

Partners: Batteries Sweden, BASE and COMPEL at Chalmers university of Technology

We invite researchers and industry representatives from the Nordic countries to participate. Registrate to participate and to present your research here: Nordic innovation and competence in LFP batteries recycling

The workshop is limited to 50 participants (first come, first served).

Registration fee: 1625 SEK (lunch and coffee included)
