It was a very nice evening at Circolo Tennis (Giardini Margherita, Bologna) with three dear friends. Professor Michel Armand, who has wrote an important chapter in the history of solid electrolyte and Li ion batteries, Maryse, his lovely wife, and Professor Marina Mastragostino, my mentor since when I was a chemistry student. I knew Michel and Maryse in 1989 in Siena at Second International Symposium on Polymer Electrolytes and, since then, every time we met is always amazing (and Maryse is really special).

Il Master che forma esperti in nuove batterie sostenibili per la transizione energetica Si chiama Battery Ecodesign e nasce per formare professionisti capaci di seguire tutto il processo di sviluppo delle batterie di nuova generazione, con una forte attenzione all'innovazione, all'automazione, alla sostenibilità e alla digitalizzazione

The Battery Ecodesign Master, offered by the University of Bologna (Alma Mater Studiorum – Università di Bologna), opens doors till the 19th of September, to applicants who intend to enter a rapidly expanding sector, providing concrete and strategic career opportunities.

With a distinguished faculty coordinated by Prof Francesca Soavi and composed by Prof Catia Arbizzani, Prof. Sergio Brutti, Prof Marco Giorgetti, Prof Fabrizio Passarini, Prof Eliana Quartarone, Prof Claudio Rossi, Prof Chiara Samori, Prof Cristian Torri, Dr Antunes Staffolani, the BattEco Master trains professional profiles like:

✅ Expert in sustainable battery design and production
✅ Specialist in end-of-life technologies and recycling
✅ Consultant for critical materials in energy applications
✅ Process technologist for battery devices
✅ Manager for economic, environmental, and safety aspects

⚡ PLUS: the territory of Ravenna, with its vocation for energy and environment, represents the ideal context for a multidisciplinary training that combines materials science, production processes, sustainability assessment, and eco-design principles with a specific focus on "design for recycling".

Become an expert in batteries through the entire supply chain!
Do you have a strong passion for energy storage technologies and desire to work at the forefront of battery innovation by an ecodesign approach?

The 2nd level Master Battery Ecodesign, in English, is designed to train new professional profiles with inter- and multidisciplinary knowledge, ranging from materials science and production processes for batteries—particularly lithium batteries—to the evaluation of sustainability in both manufacturing and end-of-life management, diagnostic techniques for assessing system performance, and eco-design principles (with a specific focus on safe and sustainable by design) as well as “design for recycling.

On June 20th, at ENI Donegani Institute in Novara, Caterina Bellatreccia has been Awarded by 2nd Massimo Soprani Award for her MSc thesis "Investigation of current collectors for anode-free solid-state batteries", carried out in collaboration with TZE and LEME, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Karl-Heinz Pettinger and Catia Arbizzani. The Award is intended to reward two experimental degree theses in the sector of technologies and systems for electrochemical energy storage. It is an institutional recognition wanted by INSTM in one of the research sectors in great development and of considerable interest both for INSTM and for Europe. The initiative received the patronage of the GISEL Association and the Department of Environmental Sciences and Policies of the Faculty of Science and Technology of the University of Milan and is organized in collaboration with Eni SpA.
Congratulations, Caterina!

Great Meeting at Stresa! LEME had the opportunity to present at the 37th ISE Topical Meeting the wide research work by several contributions (orals, posters and pitch). We are very proud of our PhD students and young researchers!
Special thanks to the organizers for the great effort and the excellent result!

Pint of Science 2024: "Dal carbonio non nasce niente? Le energie del futuro (Nothing comes from carbon? The energies of the future)". Giampaolo Lacarbonara (LEME) and Francesco Paolucci (EMFM) did an exciting talk, answering to the title question: Francesco started describing the different forms of carbon for energy conversion, and Giampaolo concluded with the importance of carbon on energy storage. The students greatly appreciated the nice talks and the friendly atmosphere at Birreria Popolare. https://pintofscience.it/events/bologna
