Freiburg Battery Days 2026 – Building the Future of Energy

The Freiburg Battery Days 2026 demonstrated the strength of Freiburg’s battery ecosystem: two days of exchange, innovation, and strategic collaboration between research and industry.

The Freiburg Battery Days 2026 have officially concluded, marking a significant milestone for the region’s energy research landscape. Over two intensive days, the event demonstrated how seamlessly cutting‑edge academic research and industrial application can come together — and how much innovation emerges from this collaboration.

With more than 100 partners from industry and science, the event showcased the remarkable strength of Freiburg’s battery research ecosystem. More than a conference, it served as a catalyst for:

  • Interdisciplinary Networking: Enabling deep‑dive discussions and new cross‑sector partnerships.
  • Knowledge Transfer: Highlighting the diverse expertise within Freiburg’s research institutions.
  • Future Strategies: Shaping the next generation of energy storage solutions.

This premiere edition was made possible through the seamless cooperation of Freiburg’s leading research institutions. A heartfelt thank you goes out to the teams and partners who brought this vision to life:

  • Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE
  • Fraunhofer IWM
  • Fraunhofer EMI
  • INATECH – University of Freiburg
  • Freiburg Materials Research Center (FMF)
  • Leistungszentrum Nachhaltigkeit Freiburg

The success of the inaugural Freiburg Battery Days confirms one thing: the demand for a collaborative battery ecosystem is stronger than ever. Planning for follow‑up events is already underway to ensure this momentum continues.
