Leading Advanced Battery Technology Research Scientists from Around the World to Convene in Las Vegas for 7th Lithium Battery Power Conference

(PRWEB) August 10, 2011

The Knowledge Foundation has announced that the 7th Lithium Battery Power conference will be held in Las Vegas, NV from November 7-8, 2011 at the Paris Las Vegas Hotel.


According to Dr. Serge Pann, Vice President of Science & Technology at the Knowledge Foundation, ?Recent significant innovations have propelled lithium-ion battery technology to a position in the marketplace far exceeding initial expectations. From a vast array of portable applications, to micro medical devices, to high-power automotive, these breakthroughs have paved the way for an emerging market with unlimited potential.? More than 135 organizations from around the world participated in last year?s conference in Boston.


Drawing upon more than ten years of tracking developments in lithium battery and fuel cell research, Lithium Battery Power 2011 will guide delegates from technology and materials development, through device packaging and integration, to applications in a mobile power marketplace, and is conveniently timed with Battery Safety 2011. Program topics include:

New chemistries & materials to increase energy & decrease cost
Meeting the EV challenge: cycle life, power & energy, cost and safety
Advanced materials for improved electrode & electrolyte performance
Application driven lithium ion battery development
Advanced technology for greater safety, reliability and performance
From novel materials and components to systems design and integration
Role of nanotechnology in improving power and energy density
