Supercapacitors and Energy Storage
Energy storage is a key topic for research, industry and business, gaining more and more interest.
Supercapacitors (also known as ultracapacitors, electrochemical capacitors or double-layer capacitors) feature exceptional capacitance values reaching hundreds or even thousands of farads. This is several orders of magnitude higher than traditional devices.
Developments in supercapacitor technology and supporting electronics, combined with reductions in cost, have created extraordinary new opportunities for electrical and electronic systems in both research and industrial applications. The number of manufacturers grows every day as performance potential increases, costs fall and estimated business turnover rises.
This workshop provides an overview of the exciting supercapacitor technology, but it will also provide a forum to discuss and compare other energy storage solutions: batteries, high-voltage capacitors, superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES), flywheels, power electronics, novel control and modeling techniques, special applications.
The workshop program is conceived to be more than a simple overview: this will offer a way for people in related fields to meet and share ideas. A specific area will be available for exhibitors.

Topics
The Workshop provides an overview of the supercapacitor technology, but it will also provide a forum to discuss and compare other energy storage solutions.
Expected Audience
One of the main peculiarity of this event is to provide a meeting point for people belonging to different environments (researchers, manufacturers, industries, integrators and utilities) both as speakers and as audience.
Round Table
A Round Table on "Energy Storage" is organized in collaboration with Italian Association of Chemical Engineering (AIDIC) to cover several storage technologies and their importance for energy transition to renewable and sustainable sources.
Oral Speakers
Oral speakers are invited by the Scientific Committee (see Workshop Program).
Nevertheless, if you have an interesting topic to be presented, feel free to contact the Scientific Committee by e-mail.
Poster Session
While the speakers for oral presentations are invited directly by the Scientific Committee, space for posters is available for all the registered participants, in particular for students, presenting activities related to the Workshop topics.
The Poster Session is available in parallel with the other Workshop Sessions and breaks.
No template is defined for the posters, but the maximum size should be the portrait A0 format.
Best Poster Award(s)
The Scientific Commitee will assign some Best Student Poster Awards to the best posters having a student (undergraduate, Master or PhD) as first author and presenter. All the posters presented by students are eligible for the workshop awards.
The number of awards will depend on the available funds. For reference, in a previous edition two awards were assigned, each award included a grant of 200 €.
Post-Workshop Files
Workshop slides and posters are generally uploaded on the Workshop website after the event (excluding some confidential contents).
Proceedings
In order to present recent developments and to include industrial presentations, the issue of formal Workshop Proceedings is not foreseen.
Selected oral or poster presentations will be invited for a free submission on a Special Issue of the Journal MDPI Energies.
Lunches and Coffee Breaks
To be defined.
Social Tour (Sold Out!)
A visit is reserved to the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts including its energy storage facility.
The tour location is at a walking distance of 15 mnutes from the Workshop venue.
