The International Flow Battery Forum (IFBF®) is the leading event for the flow battery community. The IFBF promotes the most recent developments in the science, technology and commercialisation of flow batteries. Our conferences cover a broad range of interests in the research and commercial aspects of flow batteries. Since 2010 the IFBF has held eleven in-person conferences attracting over 200 attendees each year. Adapting to the constraints of COVID, the IFBF held three virtual events attracting similar numbers. Our most recent conference in Brussels, Belgium in June 2022 had over 250 delegates.

In June 2023 the IFBF will hold its twelfth in-person conference in Prague, Czech Republic, in collaboration with Flow Batteries Europe. Over three days the conference will feature talks, panel sessions, open discussions, networking breaks, a poster session, conference dinner and a local site visit. We will discuss the latest innovations, policy updates and market challenges for the development of the flow battery sector. Business leaders, policy makers, developers and researchers will share information and forecasts around the thriving world of energy storage and the important role of flow batteries. Please see our preliminary programme for more information.

Our call for proposals is now open from 1 December 2022 until 31 January 2023. We invite you to submit your proposals for presentations, keynote addresses, interviews, panel discussions, posters, and papers for IFBF 2023. Help us create an interesting and varied agenda. Please visit our call for proposals page for more information and to submit your proposal.

IFBF conferences are an ideal opportunity for sponsors and exhibitors to promote their products and services, develop contacts and create new business. Sponsors gain increased visibility before and during the conference. Exhibitors will be on display in our dedicated exhibition area throughout the conference.

This year’s conference is supported by Pinflow, a pioneering flow battery company based in Pilsen, Czech Republic. Please join them and visit the sponsors and exhibitors page for more information.
