On December 1st the Battery Heroes, together with the COLLABAT cluster, will organise a parallel session at the Lendhafen Graz workspace to explore the sustainability and long-term impact of battery clusters beyond project duration
The Battery Heroes will also host a stand during BID2025 on December 2-3 and deliver a keynote in the session entitled Powering the future: Advanced processes and equipment for battery production
November 11, Graz, Austria — The Battery Heroes, a European clustering group uniting cutting-edge battery R&D projects, announces the organisation of a session addressing the sustainability and impact of battery clusters beyond project duration to be held on December 1st. This event will run in parallel with the Battery Innovation Days 2025 (BID 2025)m which will take place on December 2-3, 2025 in Graz (hybrid format).
The session, co organised with the COLLABAT group, will take place at the Lendhafen Graz workspace and will feature contributions from the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA), BEPA, Battery 2030+ and LiPlanet, as well as other cluster initiatives (EU-INGENIOuS, TwinBATT, etc).
When: December 1
Where: Graz, Austria, at Lendhafen Graz (December 1)

As part of its stakeholder engagement commitment, the Battery Heroes will also host an exhibition stand throughout the BID event, offering a focal point for showcasing the cluster’s latest innovations, partnerships, and collaborative projects. In addition, Isabel Hanghofer, Development Engineer at VARTA and technical member of the greenSPEED project, will deliver a presentation during the session Powering the future: Advanced processes and equipment for battery production.
This presentation will highlight strategies, technologies, and lessons learned in scaling up sustainable battery production in Europe — from pilot lines to full-scale gigafactories.
“Battery Innovation Days presents a strategic opportunity to engage with the European battery ecosystem — showcasing our collective advances and forging new collaborations toward a sustainable, high-performance value chain,” said Silvia Bodoardo, Full Professor at Politecnico di Torino and GIGAGREEN’s coordinator.
When: December 2-3
Where: Graz, Austria, at Messe Graz
