Rabat – Morocco’s Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P) will organize the 13th International Conference on Advanced Lithium Batteries for Automobile Applications (ABAA-13) from October 16-19in Marrakech. This conference will gather more than 15 experts in the field from the world’s leading research institutions.
The international organizing committee of this conference is composed of crucial scientific figures that will elaborate on “the latest trends and the next generation of technologies, novel materials, new chemistries, system design & safety and degradation mechanisms, related to Lithium-ion batteries and Energy Storage systems to provide accessible, scalable and clean mobility solutions” affirmed UM6P.
Promoting research, development, and innovation, Mohammed VI Polytechnic University is intensely focused on the future of Africa. From this perspective, the ABAA-13 conference will help Morocco reinforce its position in the energy sustainability field, accompanied by world-renowned partners.
This initiative aims to not only take the university and Morocco to the frontline of the African scene, but also to the international one.
According to the Clean Energy Institute of the University of Washington, Lithium batteries have many advantages. It clarifies that, “they have one of the highest energy densities of any battery technology today” while pointing out that Li-ion battery cells “can deliver up to 3.6 Volts, 3 times higher than technologies such as Ni-Cd or Ni-MH.”
Lithium batteries are able to provide enough energy for high-power applications. Moreover, the energy stored by lithium is the principal source supporting today’s best electric cars fuel, such as the Tesla Model S.
This conference will also hold the “Young Researchers Day”, an event that will encourage young researchers to submit their research abstracts.
