What will you learn?

E-Mobility is a convenient way to decarbonize the transport sector and open the door to a cleaner, healthier, and more affordable future for everyone. However, It requires adept knowledge of battery cell technology which many EV-startup owners and engineers wish to possess. The webinar will deliver to the audience a detailed overview of the complex manufacturing concepts of battery cell technology. It will highlight the procedure of Lithium-ion cell manufacturing in a simplified manner to help the aspirant engineers, researchers, professionals, and EV-startup owners grasp the critical strategies. Attendees will be acquainted with the entire process chain, from mixing active material to formatted cells. A concise discussion of the infrastructure required to mass-produce these cells will be held. It will assist organizations dealing with solar fabrics in making sound decisions. Industrialists and engineers will gain an understanding of complex processes and be inspired to seek out simple approaches to make the process easier. The webinar will end with some practical recycling tips to implement when manufacturing cells to retain the whole process eco-friendly.
Key takeaways of the webinar:
  • The webinar will be organized on the 19th and 20th November at 1:30 to 4:30 pm IST.
  • The event will be online and held on Microsoft teams.
