The ELectroLytes and Interfaces in PoSt-Li BatteriEs (ELLIPSE Conference) will take place from September 15 to 16, 2025 in Ulm, Germany. As a Satellite Meeting of the International Society of Electrochemistry (ISE), we bring together the world's top speakers in the field of electrolytes and interfaces in post-lithium batteries. The conference will feature contributions on post-Li battery chemistries, electrolytes, interfaces, interphases, advanced characterization, modeling, charge transfer and more. More information here.
POLIS
Batteries for a Sustainable Future
Working on your laptop on the move, searching for your way with your smartphone or taking pictures with your digital camera: Batteries have made the technological revolution of mobile devices possible at first. At the same time, they play a central role in the energy and transport revolution. In the Cluster of Excellence POLiS, we are researching batteries of the future that are more powerful, more reliable, more sustainable and more environmentally friendly than current lithium-ion batteries. POLiS is a joint cluster of KIT and the Ulm University with the associated partners JLU and ZSW.
