SMM 2025 Global Battery Technology Conference

Conference Date

August 21-22, 2025

In response to climate change, countries worldwide have set carbon neutrality targets to promote the transition of energy structures towards clean energy. The intermittency and volatility of renewable energy sources have imposed higher requirements on energy storage. As a key technology for energy storage, battery technology has become increasingly important. In recent years, new-type battery technologies such as lithium-ion batteries, solid-state batteries, and sodium-ion batteries have continuously emerged, with key indicators such as energy density, safety, and cycle life continuously improving, providing strong impetus for the development of fields such as electric vehicles (EVs), energy storage systems (ESS) power stations, and consumer electronics. The battery industry chain involves multiple links, including resources, materials, manufacturing, and applications, requiring the concerted efforts of experts from various countries and fields worldwide to jointly overcome technical challenges and promote the healthy development of the industry.

Against this backdrop, SMM is organizing the inaugural 2025 SMM Global Battery Technology Conference, scheduled for August 21-22, 2025, to invite partners from various links of the battery industry chain, covering manufacturing enterprises of sodium-ion batteries, lithium batteries, solid-state batteries, and lead-acid batteries, aiming to "cover the entire battery industry chain"!

The conference will focus on six key areas

▲ Discussion and exchange on cutting-edge battery technologies

▲ New battery equipment

▲ Latest progress in technology, materials, and equipment for solid-state batteries

▲ Analysis of sodium-ion battery application technologies and implementation prospects

▲ Sharing of research progress on lightweight, high-energy-density materials for batteries
