The International Flow Battery Forum (IFBF®) is the leading event for the flow battery community. We promote the most recent developments in the science, technology and deployment of flow batteries and our conferences cover a broad range of interests in research and commercial aspects of flow batteries.
Electrical energy storage is a key part of smart electricity networks and is an important way to integrate renewable and conventional energy. Flow batteries are a crucial technology within this sector with many unique features and benefits.
Registration open!
Registration for this year’s conference is now open. The conference will be hosted by Flow Batteries Europe (FBE) in their home city of Brussels, Belgium. FBE is an international, not-for-profit association aimed at accelerating decarbonisation in Europe and globally by increasing the deployment of energy storage and flexibility solutions through flow battery technology.
The conference will run over two days with presentations, panel sessions, and poster discussions bringing together customers, users, developers, suppliers, manufacturers, and researchers of flow batteries. Our theme is “where are the flow battery gigafactories” and how do we get there? Representatives of government and industry organisations will attend to discuss the role of flow batteries to ensure security of electricity supply in Europe and worldwide.
Before the conference, on Monday 27 June 2022, there will be workshop organised by the EU-funded projects SONAR & CompBat to discuss the latest flow battery research and industry developments. FBE will hold a member’s only General Assembly, and there will be other industry meetings and social events on the Monday evening. After the conference, on Thursday 30 June 2022, there will be a site visit to the MiRIS demonstration site to see a flow battery and microgrid in operation.
To register – and see a more detailed programme of events – please visit FBE’s dedicated IFBF 2022 site. We look forward to seeing you in Belgium this summer.
