This is an open access book.
Energy storage systems are the key to the successful energy transition to full renewable energy supply and are more relevant today than ever before.
They address numerous challenges of the energy transition at once: they stabilize the electricity grids, support the shutdown of fossil fuel and nuclear power plants, make regionally generated electricity available locally – and compensate for fluctuations in renewable energy generation.
The International Renewable Energy Storage (IRES) Conference is one of the world’s largest and leading international scientific renewable energy storage conferences. In 2023, IRES will be held for the seventeenth time. Representatives from politics, industry, science and research can exchange the latest findings in the field of storage technologies and present their results to a broad professional audience.
In a plenary opening and two parallel streams of lectures over three days, experts from science, practice, politics and society focus on the current state of knowledge about energy storage. In the plenary sessions, topic-specific lecture series and discussion rounds, other lectures will be presented during a large poster exhibition.
We look forward to welcoming you to the 17th IRES in 2023.
