Recap of the Battery Show Europe 2024: Connecting to electrify the future


The Battery Show Europe 2024 in Stuttgart, Germany, marked a significant milestone for the advanced battery manufacturing industry. 


The Battery Show Europe 2024 in Stuttgart, Germany, marked a significant milestone for the advanced battery manufacturing industry. As Europe's premier trade show for this sector, it attracted over 19,000 professionals eager to explore the latest innovations and solutions for advanced batteries and electric & hybrid vehicles. With more than 800 exhibitors, the event demonstrated the industry's impressive growth, expanding almost five times since 2019.

The power of electrification

The shift towards electrification is revolutionizing the automotive industry, with global sales of electric vehicles (EVs) expected to reach over 17 million by the end of 2024, accounting for 25% of all new passenger car registrations. This trend underscores the need for innovative labeling solutions that meet EVs' unique environmental and safety requirements. However, the lack of universal testing standards poses challenges. Ulrike Steinfort, our technical marketing manager for Durable Goods, emphasized the need for standardized tests to streamline processes, reduce costs, and ensure quality.
