Delivering a keynote titled “The Role of Energy Storage in The New Energy Paradigm” on Wednesday, October 3, Dr. Lampe-Onnerud will discuss how the next 10 years are poised to transform the battery industry as well as existing applications and potential new markets alike. She will also examine how collaborative global policies and technological advancements – propelled by substantial growth rates – are prompting an unprecedented change in the global energy equation. Additionally, she will explore how markets are validating novel solutions by demonstrating the integration of new technologies and products within the existing energy infrastructure.

“I am thrilled once again to be included among the speakers at this conference,” said Dr. Lampe-Onnerud. “The last year has been an especially exciting one for energy storage and for Cadenza Innovation. I welcome the chance to share what we’ve learned and what we see ahead – and look forward to benefiting from the wisdom of our industry peers.”
