THE BATTERY SHOW TECHNOLOGY CONFERENCE Keynote Speaker: Jan Swart, Principal, Exponent
Jan has signifi cant experience in electronics, electrical systems, power electronics, battery systems, failure analysis, new technology, and application evaluation, developing battery safety evaluation protocols and customized tests. He specializes in battery system safety and design, and was the lead expert on various battery design review and failure analysis investigations.
12:45PM LUNCH – SERVED IN EXHIBITION HALL
2:30PM PANEL DISCUSSION: REDUCTIONS IN BATTERY COSTS THAT EXTEND BEYOND THE MICROSCOPE
Cost reductions for EV batteries are essential to widespread adoption. But the active material content (anode and cathode) only constitutes 20% of the price, falling to less than 10% in hybrid applications. The panel will review improving the active to inactive material content in a battery system, which components are fundamental to supporting the cell, which are supplementary, the lead times and barriers to change, and how battery costs will ultimately be reduced.
Session Chair: Glynne Townsend, President & Chief Executive Offi cer, Townsend Co
Glynne founded the Townsend Company in 2010, based on the belief that if alternative energy was to succeed, then the companies pioneering that effort needed to be successful themselves. Prior to founding the company, he led the revenue growth at A123 Systems, a leading supplier of lithium-ion batteries.

4:00PM DRINKS RECEPTION IN EXHIBITION HALL DAY 2: WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 26
9:30AM PANEL DISCUSSION: CHASING THE HOLY GRAIL OF BATTERY CHEMISTRY
The development of EV battery technology has been focused on retail consumers, 40-50 miles per day and 12,000 miles per year. The challenge, however, is to develop technology that will satisfy the largest potential market: commercial fl eets. Fleets accumulate twice as many miles on a daily and annual basis and keep their vehicles for twice as long as the average retail customer. Fleets are also attracted by the standby power capability of EVs and range-extended hybrids. Which chemistries and battery solutions will excel in these demanding situations?
