It was a great event Thanks to all contributing their insights and perspectives It was clear that batteries are growing fast but need to go faster to ✴️transition away from fossil fuels ✴️3x #renewables by 2030 ✴️2x #energyefficiency but batteries must be produced sustainably

Batteries are a vital part of the energy transition. Here's why: - They're the fastest growing clean technology on the market - They help meet climate goals & ensure energy security - They bring down emissions in power & transport International Energy Agency's new report ➡️ iea.li/3QmAogL
