Don’t leave it too late to be early! We expect this year’s IFBF to be busier than ever and a very interesting conference. We have received over 90 proposals covering a wide range of commercial and technical subjects. As well as improving vanadium flow battery batteries, we will explore other exciting technologies such as zinc […]
Thank you to everyone who submitted a proposal for IFBF 2023. We’ve received over 80 proposals from 19 different countries. With flow batteries being in the news around the world, it’s great to have this reflected in our conference. We are still keen to hear about flow battery projects and business cases. We are very pleased […]
The proposed EU Battery Passport, which was part of the new EU Batteries Regulation, was a major topic of discussion at last year’s IFBF. You may recall that flow batteries had been excluded from the Regulation; it seems because flow batteries were not considered a relevant technology. Most of those at IFBF 20222 agreed this […]
As 2022 comes to an end we wish you all a very Happy Christmas. In 2023 we hope to see many of you at our conference in Prague, 27 – 29 June. The first proposals for presentations have already arrived and we look forward to receiving many more. Please view the venue, submit your proposal […]
Since 2010, IFBF conferences have successfully raised the profile of flow batteries showcasing this crucial electrical energy storage technology. Our conferences bring together everyone interested in research, development, manufacturing, commercialisation, and deployment of flow batteries from around the world. We now invite you to submit your proposals for presentations, keynote addresses, interviews, panel discussions, posters, and […]
We are pleased to announce that next year’s IFBF 2023 conference will be held in the historic European city of Prague in the Czech Republic, at the Corinthia Hotel, from 27 – 29 June 2023. This will be our twelfth face-to-face conference, bringing together everyone interested in the research, development, manufacturing, commercialisation, and deployment of flow batteries […]
Last week we held our eleventh in-person IFBF conference. We received some lovely feedback from delegates; we thank everyone that took part and helped make the event such a great success. We held the conference jointly with Flow Batteries Europe and together we debated the Batteries Passport, Innovation funding in Horizon Europe, and the European […]
MORE INFO and REGISTER HERE. We are expecting more than 250 delegates at the IFBF next week, but the work does not stop there. At the conference we will be referring to the Batteries Directive and how flow batteries fit into the new regulations. The implications are important, and there is much to think about. […]
After a two-year absence we can’t wait to have a real conference again next week. And we are delighted to announce that we now have over 200 delegates that will be present in-person, with 150 of those choosing to join us at the conference dinner. We have a packed programme, some fantastic sponsors and hallways full of exhibitors. IFBF […]
Change happens fast in the energy industry. It used to be the comment that power utilities were conservative and reluctant to change, but that has ignored the evidence of the big shift over the past ten years into renewable energy and advanced distributed technologies. Ten years ago we even thought that battery energy storage would […]
