Atena+

ATENA+ partners meet in San Sebastián for the second General Assembly - ATENA+ The ATENA+ consortium met in San Sebastián (Spain) for its second General Assembly, bringing together partners from across Europe to review progress, exchange ideas, and align on next steps.

Together in San Sebastián, we shared the team’s progress, key developments, and achievements, as well as participated in two highly collaborative workshops aimed at gathering consortium ideas and establishing a basis for continuing the partners’ work.

Nonetheless, strong industrialisation efforts are still required in 🇪🇺 to build a deeper understanding of how to scale this technology & how to establish a robust supply chain, manufacturing infrastructure, & recycling processes for effective commercialisation.

Hence, #ATENAplus was created.

However, these commercial SIBs still face several performance downsides as compared to #lithium-ion batteries, creating a strategic opportunity for #EU players with a solid R&D foundation to enter the market.
