The Battery Materials and Processing Conference
Welcome to the Battery Materials and Processing Conference, 27–28 May 2026 – the leading meeting point hosted by RISE for experts, researchers and industry leaders in battery materials and energy storage. The conference provides up‑to‑date insights into materials innovation, sustainability and next‑generation battery technology.
Exploring the future of battery materials and processing
The conference covers the full battery materials value chain – from raw materials and active components to processing, battery cells and manufacturing. Key topics include cell components, binders, separators, testing methods and advanced analysis. The programme also addresses safety, recycling and reuse, with a focus on supporting more sustainable material and production choices.
After each session, the speakers and the session chair take part in a panel discussion.
Venue – Bygget Fest och Konferens
The conference will be held at Bygget Fest och Konferens on Norrlandsgatan 11 in central Stockholm – an inspiring meeting venue that combines distinctive architecture with timeless design.
Social networking and dinner at Junibacken
The evening begins with a magical journey on the fairy-tale train to the banquet hall. We disembark at Villa Villekulla and are welcomed with a drink in an enchanting setting. After mingling, the evening continues with dinner one floor below in the restaurant, where culinary delights and a wonderful atmosphere await.
Conference Partners BMPC 2026
BMPC 2026 is organised in collaboration with partners who will participate both on site and in the programme.
