Consortium

BatteryNL consortium partners

The consortium comprises 7 universities, 5 Universities of Applied Sciences, TNO and more than 20 companies.

Universities/Universities of Applied Science

BatteryNL represents the top academic universities and Universities of Applied Sciences active in battery research in the Netherlands. The academic partners are experts in battery and interface materials/chemistry and characterisation methodologies (especially during battery operation). Furthermore the Universities of Applied Sciences developed Centres of Expertise on sustainability and energy transition, specifically targeting the role of batteries, where research and education meet, and results can be valorised and utilised.

Companies

The companies ensure the impact of the results is generated. They implement the developed technologies on a larger scale in battery systems and contribute to a more sustainable society. This involves the most relevant national stakeholders in mobility and electric cars, as well as the civil society stakeholders and companies.

Partner expertise and position in the value chain and the connection to society.

Steering Commitee

The SC is responsible for project execution, monitoring of the workflow, risk mitigation, timely delivery of results, and is decision making body in terms of project execution and budget neutral changes.
