WATTS UP is back for the 6th time with the title Open Horizons. The conference is arranged by our collaborator Maritime Battery Forum, and Ocean Hyway Cluster will be on the speakers list. The members of Ocean Hyway Cluster will have a 20% discount on the conference ticket price.
The number of ships with batteries are increasing and we see batteries being installed on more ship types than before. WATTS UP 2020 will be focusing on the battery technology development, applications on different ship types (experience, operations, design), as well as battery life and hybrid solutions.
WATTS UP is the opportunity to meet key personnel dedicated to technology developments as well as the end users. We hope the results of the conference will help streamline battery uptake for the maritime industry.
Who should attend?
Battery manufacturers, system integrators, shipyards, ship owners, ship managers, ports, authorities, research institutions, government agencies, port authorities, class societies, designers, think tanks, anyone who has an interest in ships and batteries.
