This week a team of technicians and managers of the company Huawei from its headquarters in China and its research centre in Nuremberg (Germany) visited IMDEA Energy with the aim of specifying opportunities for collaboration in various topics of common interest such as the control of electricity grids, the integration of renewable sources and batteries, electrochemical storage devices (batteries and supercapacitors) and accelerated testing techniques for their quality.

The attendees visited IMDEA Energy facilities such as the heliostat solar field, the electrochemical devices test plant and the smart energy integration plant, where they attended a demonstration, were interested in the capabilities of the equipment and identified opportunities for further collaboration in R&D projects.
