Workshop

POSTPONED!! | Atomic layer deposition (ALD) for next-generation batteries


Due to the national public transport strikes planned for Tuesday 10 June, we have made the difficult decision to postpone the ALD workshop originally scheduled at Jaarbeurs Utrecht.

With many participants depending on public transport, we would not be able to ensure full representation of the ALD ecosystem - and the workshop’s intended goals of knowledge exchange and collaboration would be at risk. We regret the inconvenience and short notice, and we truly appreciate your understanding. A new date will be shared as soon as possible!!


The Netherlands boasts a strong presence of manufacturers specializing in gas phase deposition technologies for thin film battery components. NXTGEN Hightech, BatteryNL and High Tech NL are organizing a workshop where we will focus on the ALD technology for interface engineering in Li-ion batteries and explore, together, the opportunities and strategies for high throughput ALD to be validated and included in (near-)future NL pilot lines.

Auke Kronemeijer (TNO Holst Centre), Mariadriana Creatore (Eindhoven University of Technology) and Milou Arts (High Tech NL) welcome you to the workshop!

Details*:

Date: 10 June 2025

Time: 9:30 - 17:00 hrs.

Location: Jaarbeurs Utrecht (Jaarbeursplein)

The workshop will cover the following topics:

  • Targets and KPIs: Discuss the added costs of an ALD process in future battery manufacturing versus the added value for battery performance.

  • Technological and Supply Chain Maturity: Build stronger links between supply chain partners and find the right partnerships for expansion and scaling.

  • Scalability and Cost-related Issues: Address scalability and cost-related issues in high throughput (spatial) ALD applications. Define the ‘wins’ and create a business case on battery/plant level instead of comparing anode costs.

  • Strategic Opportunities: Identify strategic opportunities for (spatial) ALD in battery manufacturing.

*This workshop is by invitation only. If you did not receive an invitation but believe you should attend, please email Emanuela Zanetti and we will review your request.
