ELLB Battery Summer School

The PreCharger Workshop becomes the ELLB Battery Summer School

Expand your battery knowledge together with our experts at the ELLB Battery Summer School. Here you will gain exclusive insights into the battery cosmos and the Fraunhofer Research Facility for Battery Cell Production FFB in Münster. At the same time, you will gain state-of-the-art battery knowledge and expand your network in the battery sector.

Our pilot participants and lecturers give you an insight into what to expect in the video.

TARGET GROUP
  • Newcomers in the field of battery technology
  • Career and lateral entrants in the battery industry
  • Employees from mechanical and plant engineering companies
  • Employees from the legal and insurance sector
  • All those who want to gain basic knowledge about battery technology, its markets, supply chains and recycling
CONTENT AND EXPIRATION

The Battery Summer School offers a unique all-round view of many relevant topics in the field of battery technology. During the three days, experts from Fraunhofer FFB:

  • Basic knowledge of the structure, function, production and areas of application of various common cell formats (prismatic, pouch and round cells).
  • An understanding of the European and global battery market, including supply chains and big players in the battery ecosystem.
  • Trends and future prospects in battery technology management, cell designs and the circular economy.

Participants will receive exclusive insights into the research infrastructure of Fraunhofer FFB as part of a guided tour of the "FFB PreFab".

 

LEARNING GOALS

After the workshop, participants will be able to...

  • to illustrate the five elements of the battery value chain and how they interact.
  • to describe three ways in which the dependence on critical raw materials for energy storage can be reduced.
  • identify the three most important recycling routes for LIB materials in the context of material output and the reuse of materials in further process steps.
  • identify the two most costly steps (financially & energy-wise) in traditional LIB production.
  • explain the use of a digital twin in future battery cell production.
  • to be able to estimate the expected development of the battery markets in terms of size and structure.
  • to understand the expected technological developments along the battery value chain.
SPEAKERS
Jan-Darius Plöpst arbeitet als Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter in der Gruppe Zelldesign an der Fraunhofer FFB.

Jan-Darius Plöpst 

My name is Jan-Darius Plöpst and I have been working for Fraunhofer FFB since 2022 as a research associate in the "Cell Design" group. Thanks to my passion for chemistry and my academic and professional training in this field, I bring profound scientific knowledge to our group. My main tasks include the configuration of our electrodes and the design of the cell network. Thanks to my knowledge in the field of lithium-ion batteries, I am very familiar with the requirements and their individual components.

Jan-Paul Brinkmann 

As a research associate at Fraunhofer FFB, I work intensively on the finalization of battery cells. Thanks to my many years of experience and my doctorate, I have in-depth knowledge in the important field of lithium-ion batteries and their production. I work together with the process engineering team to develop innovative solutions for the production of sustainable energy storage systems.
