The German-Australian Alliance for Electrochemical Technologies for Storage of Renewable Energy
CENELEST had a visit of a delegation from the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) in the beginning of March 2023 in Sydney. Ms. Morgenstern (DLR science officer), Ms. Kaute (German Embassy in Australia) and Ms. Wolters (Officer Bilateral Cooperation Australia/Oceania) received an overview of the work of CENELEST.
The issue “Australia” of the country profile of GATE Germany contains an article about CENELEST and a short interview with Jens about CENELEST at the Sydney site. The brochure gives information and a general overview about the country Australia for students.

A paper about “Bottom-up system modeling of battery storage requirements for integrated renewable energy systems” has been published by Sarah Henni from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology KIT, Michael Schäffer from Fraunhofer ICT and CENELEST, Peter Fischer from Fraunhofer ICT and CENELEST and Philipp Staudt from Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0306261922017883
Today is finally the day. After two years of work, WILEY-VCH Flow Batteries has been published in three volumes and with over 1200 pages in hardcover and digital version. The book can be ordered directly from WILEY https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/book/10.1002/9783527832767 or from booksellers.
Over two days, school classes and interested citizens were able to learn about the current state of research in the Bonn region in Germany. To explain the screening process to be developed in SONAR, Fraunhofer SCAI challenged visitors to find the best combination of active materials to build a complete redox flow battery cell. In general the topic of energy storage and in particular flow batteries received a lot of attention and encouragement.
