EUROSOLARThe European Associationfor Renewable Energy
InternationalRenewable Energy StorageConference
In cooperation with
ENERGY STORAGE EUROPE (Conference & Expo)Conference Power-to-Gas
Because of the enormous successes of past IRES conferences EUROSOLAR and the World Council for Re-newable Energy (WCRE) will continue the IRES series in March 2015.
The series of IRES conferences has emerged as the leading forum for the discussion of the pressing pro-blems with renewable energy storage by drawing together one of the largest gatherings of scientific andeconomic experts worldwide.
As of 2015 the participants can choose from even more extensive options. Running in Düsseldorf for thefirst time, IRES 2015 is being held as a concurrent event with ENERGY STORAGE EUROPE (conference +expo) and the Conference Power-to-Gas (OTTI e.V.). A related trade show will feature ~100 exhibitors.
The three conferences and the exhibition will take place March 9-11, 2015 in the Congress Center Düsseldorf of Messe Düsseldorf (Trade Fair Dusseldorf), Germany.
We are looking forward to welcoming you in Düsseldorf in March 2015!

14:00 Poster Session
For the 9th International Renewable Energy Storage Conference more abstracts than ever beforewere submitted to the scientific steering committee. With responses from all over the world,more than 120 posters were selected to be presented at the IRES poster exhibition. While theposter exhibition is open to all IRES-participants at the time of the conference, two special postersessions offer additional presentation time. In these two guided sessions, the IRES-participantswill have the opportunity to walk around the exhibition grounds with leading experts of energystorage technologies and listen to the presentations of and the discussions with the poster pre-senters.
If you scan the provided QR-code with your smart phone, you will be directed to a list of all posters, their titles and presenters.
