TEMPEST Project Shines at Battery Innovation Days 2024 in Barcelona

The TEMPEST Project recently participated in Battery Innovation Days 2024 (BID2024), held in Barcelona and online, marking another milestone in its commitment to advancing next-generation battery technologies. This year’s event brought together leading stakeholders, innovators, and researchers in the European battery sector to showcase progress and foster collaborations.

As part of the EU-INGENIOUS cluster, TEMPEST joined forces with several EU projects to contribute to discussions on the latest advancements in battery materials, smarter recycling strategies, and sustainable production methods. The event highlighted the collective efforts of EU-funded initiatives to drive innovation and deliver safer, high-performance battery solutions for Europe’s transport and energy systems.

 

The TEMPEST Project at the 8th European Conference on Results from Road Transport Research

RTR 2025 Conference

Join Jeremy Warren, TEMPEST project coordinator, as he speaks at the RTR Conference 2025, an event showcasing significant results and scientific achievements of EU-funded road transport research projects. The conference, held from February 11-13, 2025, at The EGG, Brussels, marks its 8th edition, offering a unique platform to explore the impact of these projects.

This year’s event is organized by ERTRAC (European Road Transport Research Advisory Council), 2Zero, the CCAM Association, and the European Commission, with BEPA joining the event team to highlight impressive research outcomes.

Participants will learn about the results and anticipated impacts of Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe projects, covering key areas such as Green Vehicles, Urban Mobility, Logistics, Intelligent Transport Systems, Safety, and Automated Road Transport. The conference aims to provide a comprehensive overview of advancements in these fields, showcasing benefits for the environment, economy, and European society.

Key Session: February 11, 16:30 – 18:45

In the session titled High-performance and Safe-by-Design Next Generation Battery Systems for Road Transport Applications, TEMPEST will present alongside EU-INGENIOuS projects EXTENDED, VERSAPRINT, NEXTBAT, and BATSS.

TEMPEST Project Showcases Innovations at European Battery Technology Collaboration Meeting

The TEMPEST project was honored to participate in the collaboration meeting hosted by the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) in partnership with the Batteries European Partnership Association (BEPA) and the European Green Vehicles Initiative Association (EGVIA). This event, held in Petten, Netherlands, last October 23, was part of the 2Zero initiative aimed at advancing zero-emission transport solutions. The project was represented by our coordinator, Jeremy Warren.

The meeting served as an excellent platform to exchange insights on next-generation battery technologies, testing methodologies, and sustainability strategies. Jeremy Warren showcased the TEMPEST project’s contributions, highlighting recent advancements and engaging in discussions with other European initiatives, including BATSS EU, NEXTBAT, EXTENDED, and VERSAPRINT EU.

 

The TEMPEST Project Participates in SiGNE Workshop

On September 24, the TEMPEST project participated in the workshop “The Future of EV Batteries,” organized by the SiGNE project. This hybrid event took place both at Ferrari’s headquarters in Maranello, Italy, and online.

Jeremy Warren, the TEMPEST Project Coordinator, presented an overview of the project alongside other Horizon Europe-funded initiatives, including IntelLigent, NEXTCELL, BIG LEAP, HAVEN, and FASTEST.

The workshop concluded with an engaging panel discussion titled “Integrating New Concepts in EV Batteries at Scale: Challenges and Trade-offs to Meet Performance Targets.”

 

Upcoming Workshop: The Future of EV Batteries

Join us on Tuesday, September 24, from 09:30 to 16:00 CET for a workshop featuring TEMPEST, hosted by the SiGNE project. This hybrid event will be held both at Ferrari’s facilities in Maranello, Italy, and online.

Jeremy Warren, Project Coordinator, will introduce the TEMPEST project during the workshop titled ‘The Future of EV Batteries.’ Other Horizon Europe-funded projects, such as IntelLigent, NEXTCELL, BIG LEAP, HAVEN, and FASTEST, will also participate.

The event will conclude with a fireside discussion on ‘Integrating New Concepts in EV Batteries at Scale: Challenges and Trade-offs to Meet Performance Targets.’ This discussion will feature a panel of presenters from each project and will be chaired by Prof. Kevin Ryan, Personal Chair in Chemical Nanotechnology at the Department of Chemical Sciences, School of Natural Sciences, University of Limerick.
