University of Patras Presents TEMPEST Project at BrIAS BATTERIES 2025

The University of Patras participated in the BrIAS BATTERIES 2025 Conference, held on May 22–23, 2025, in Brussels, Belgium. The event, organized by the Brussels Institute of Advanced Studies, brought together international researchers to discuss recent advances in battery modelling, control, and management systems.

Representing the University, Katerina Fragiadaki presented the TEMPEST project abstract titled ‘Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Impact Response of a Thermoplastic Battery Housing.’ The study focused on evaluating the mechanical performance of thermoplastic materials used in battery enclosures, combining both simulation and experimental methods.

The presentation highlighted the TEMPEST project’s contribution to improving battery safety and system reliability, supporting the broader goals of efficient and robust energy storage technologies.

Turning Challenges into Advantages: What Current Practices Teach Us About Future Battery Design and Sustainability

A webinar organised by the EXTENDED project in collaboration with EU-INGENIOuS cluster

Following the success of the Empowering Europe webinar hosted by the EU INGENIOUS cluster—which includes the TEMPEST, NEXTBAT, VERSAPRINT, BATSS, and EXTENDED—we’re excited to announce the second session of the EU-INGENIOUS webinar series.

On June 11, Jeremy Warren, coordinator of the TEMPEST Project, will join an expert panel for an interactive session focused on the transformative impact of the 2023 Battery Regulation on the battery industry.

This webinar will bring together voices from industry and academia to explore regulatory effects, challenges across the battery value chain, and innovations in battery design and lifecycle management.
