The vision for BATTERY 2030+ is to invent the batteries of the future, providing European industry with disruptive technologies and a competitive edge across the full value chain. BATTERY 2030+ will pursue ultrahigh-performance, reliable, safe, sustainable and affordable batteries, by a cross-disciplinary, transformational research approach, leveraging advances in artificial intelligence, robotics, sensors and smart systems. The groundbreaking science and technology developed by BATTERY 2030+ will have an invaluable impact on the ongoing transition towards a carbon-neutral and circular economy.

CELEST is one of the most ambitious research platforms in battery research worldwide. The platform is aiming at enhancing communication and cooperation among the scientists involved and will pave the way for new, interdisciplinary collaborations. CELEST coordinates joint activities with other universities and research institutions as well as with industry in Germany and abroad.
