The Battery Safety Conference focuses on battery safety and how we can work together to enable safe electrification. April 2027 marks the third edition of the conference.
The Battery Safety Conference 2027 takes place 6–7 April in Gothenburg. It welcomes researchers, engineers, decision-makers and regulatory bodies. In short: anyone interested in the latest news, challenges and solutions in battery safety.
We are proud to announce a new initiative for next year’s conference. The Battery Safety Conference will take place during the same week as the two international conferences, FIVE and ISTSS. We are calling this initiative ‘Safety Week 2027’. You can choose which conferences you would like to attend – one, two, or perhaps all three! Find out more about Safety Week.
The 2026 edition of the conference brought together around 250 participants from 19 countries, demonstrating strong international engagement across the entire battery value chain. The most common professions were engineers and technical specialists, researchers and academics, managers and executives, safety and risk specialists, and specialists in batteries, energy, and regulatory compliance.
The wide range of nationalities and professional roles underlines the conference’s broad relevance and its role as a key meeting place for collaboration on battery safety. In addition to attending presentations by leading battery experts, there is a strong focus on networking, including a networking dinner. You will also have the opportunity to visit our battery safety lab in Borås or SEEL in Gothenburg.
The conference aims to accelerate safe electrification by:
• Highlighting and discussing the challenges within battery safety
• Strengthening collaboration between different stakeholders
