With speeches, seminars and other political activities, the Almedalen Week is considered to be the most important forum in Swedish politics where representatives from the major political parties in Sweden take turns to make speeches in Almedalen. In recent years, the event has grown larger, with numbers of journalists, lobbyists, organisations, companies and representatives from municipalities also present to meet, debate and discuss current political, economic and social issues.

InnoEnergy will be present at Almedalen and will host a seminar on 03 July 2019, 09:00-10:00, as part of Dagens Industri Energidagen. The seminar is open to all, on the following topic:

Can Sweden successfully deliver sustainable batteries?

The development of the automotive industry and the electricity system requires large amounts of batteries quickly that are also produced and recycled sustainably. Sweden has the potential to deliver such batteries to Europe’s industrial development.

What is needed for us to benefit from this industrial revolution?
