Any questions for the working groups?
Do you have a topic, question or idea that you think our working groups would be the right place to discuss or answer? Among other things, we have:
- Discussed specific project or consortium ideas.
- Addressed specific technical challenges.
- Looked at specific studies or technologies — and much more.
Rather a question too many, than one too few.
Questions for the working groups
Interested in participating?
The working groups are open to anyone in our member organisations who is interested in energy storage and conversion and actively works with these topics.
