Driven by upcoming innovations, energy storage is one of the main pillars of the renewable energy mix of the future. The ees AWARD addresses this significance and annually honors the best innovations in the industry.
This webinar features the ees AWARD Winners 2020 FENECON, Webasto and ZnR Batteries presenting on the hot topic “The Future of Energy Storage: From Plug and Play to Second Life to New Materials”. Join the webinar to gain insights into the latest innovations in the field of energy storage.
During the webinar participants can submit their questions to get them answered by the experts in the live Q&A. In addition, both the recording and the speakers' presentations are made available to all registrants after the webinar.
Fabian Eckl, Head of Technical Development of Energy Storage Systems and R&D, FENECON
Tinkering with electrical systems from an early age, Fabian Eckl trained as an electrician and studied electrical engineering. During his studies, he joined FENECON as a master's student and, after successfully completing his studies, built up the technical development department for power storage systems. Today, he heads this department as well as R&D.
As a pioneer for the energy transition, he developed systems that shape the future and was one of the leading architects of the stackable high-voltage batteries for storage systems that are now used worldwide. Especially in the residential storage sector, this technology enables modular scaling of storage systems' performance. He also developed a modular spare parts storage system for e-vehicles with an open-technology and future-oriented industrial storage concept, for which FENEOCN received the ees Award 2020 for this innovation.
