The first HIGREEW Workshop – a big success!

The first HIGREEW Workshop has taken place on 2 and 3 March 2022. The hybrid event was organized in Pilsen (Czech Republic) as well as online via ZOOM. Host partner UWB, together with all HIGREEW partners, has worked hard to make the first workshop a success! Over 150 participants from 15 different countries attended the workshop on-site (~ 50) and online (over 100).

It successfully brought together high-level representatives from industry, researchers and EU policymakers to exchange views on key issues for the storage sector and the crucial role of redox-flow batteries (RFB) in the energy transition. On the second day, the HIGREEW partners had the opportunity to present and discuss the current HIGREEW innovations/preliminary results and developments. We want to thank everyone who contributed and/or participated in this first HIGREEW Workshop!
