Recording of Tuesday, May 06, 2025 | The smarter E Europe Conferences 2025 | Conference Program | Language: English | Duration: 3:32 .
Dr. Matthias Vetter, Energy Storage Chief Expert at Huawei Nuremberg Research Center, introduces the technology session of a conference focused on energy storage and system flexibility. He emphasizes the importance of batteries as key components for providing necessary flexibility in energy systems, whether they are positioned behind or in front of meters. While acknowledging that technological advancements always present opportunities for optimization and new solutions, this year's conference shifts focus from electrochemistry to system-level considerations rather than delving into alternatives like sodium-ion versus lithium-ion phosphate batteries. The program includes presentations on battery management systems followed by discussions related to power electronics—crucial interfaces with the grid—and concludes with topics addressing safety and noise concerns associated with utility-scale battery installations near populated areas such as those found in densely populated Germany. Dr. Vetter then hands over to Steffen from Unique Electrification who will discuss their innovative approaches to battery management solutions without further delay.
