The first webinar of the new series “Time and Length-Scale Operando Bridging Techniques to Study Battery Interfaces” took place on 23 October 2025. The event kicked off a collaboration between OPINCHARGE, OPERA, and ULTRABAT within the Battery2030+ initiative. The goal is simple but ambitious — to help scientists see inside batteries while they work.

Join us online on 23 October 2025 at 15:00 CET for the launch of a new webinar series exploring how cutting-edge operando techniques are helping researchers see inside batteries — and understand the complex transformations that define their performance and lifetime.

On 12 June 2025, the OPINCHARGE consortium gathered for its General Meeting — a milestone moment marking the project’s transition from exploratory science to impactful innovation.

The OPINCHARGE project took the stage at the 5th Annual Battery 2030+ Conference, held on 6–7 May 2025 in Münster, Germany. Represented by project partner Prof. Hans-Georg Steinrück from FZ Jülich, OPINCHARGE joined forces with two sister projects – ULTRABAT and OPERA. Jointly, they highlighted their complementary contributions to advancing battery interface research.

The OPINCHARGE Project held its project general meeting from November 21 to 22, 2024, hosted by Center for Ageing, Reliability and Lifetime Prediction of Electrochemical and Power Electronic Systems (CARL) in Aachen, Germany. This pivotal event united leading research institutions, experts in the field of battery technology and business consulting organisations to:
