The inevitable transition to the electric society, 2: Energy storage

Organised by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.

The Royal Swedish Academy organises a series of three seminars on the theme “The inevitable transition to the electric society”. As a common theme for large parts of Sweden’s energy and technology transformation, electricity appears as a general basis, both for energy production, energy storage, distribution and as fuel. The purpose of the planned seminars is to shed light on the various technologies and options for action that are available in the creation of the future energy system. Both technical, economic, environmental and social science aspects will be addressed, from a Swedish as well as an international perspective.

Each theme is divided into three sub-areas, and will be addressed at three different seminar occasions. There are separate registrations for each seminar:

We plan to record and live-stream the seminars for those who cannot attend in person. You can watch it on our startpage, on www.kva.se
