From Material Analysis to Meaningful Exchange: Meet the Battery Community in Aachen

Battery innovation depends not only on advanced analytical technologies, but also on the people who apply them, discuss their findings and introduce new perspectives. In his statement from the 2026 exhibition, Jürgen Simon of Hitachi High-Tech Europe highlights the value of connecting with experts, universities, industry representatives and young researchers at the Battery Conference.

Hitachi High-Tech supports battery research and manufacturing with material-analysis technologies such as electron microscopy and ion-beam sample preparation. The direct dialogue with specialists from across the battery value chain therefore provides valuable insights into current developments, practical requirements and future applications.

The international battery community will meet again at Advanced Battery Power in Aachen from April 7 to 9, 2027—offering exhibitors another opportunity to present their expertise, establish relevant contacts and contribute to the discussions driving battery technology forward.
