| Session 2 | Vacuum Coating Technologies for Energy Storage Devices Chair: Claus Luber |
|
| The energy transition is progressing worldwide, but many challenges remain unresolved. Energy storage systems play a decisive role in the ecologically sustainable design of our energy systems. Various strategies and technologies for manufacturing energy storage systems are competing with each other on the market in order to realize the required efficiency and cost savings. Coatings and layer systems produced using vacuum coating technologies play an important role in this. This requires an optimum choice of materials for the coatings and coating systems in conjunction with a perfectly adapted coating technology. The session ‘Vacuum Coating Technologies for Energy Storage’ deals with roll-to-roll vacuum coating technologies that are suitable for Li-ion and ‘next generation’ batteries and other energy storage systems.. | |

| Session 5 | Light and Energy in Buildings Chair: Dr. Matthias Fahland |
|
| The building sector is responsible for more than 40 percent of the annual primary energy demand in Europe. Naturally, there is a need to reduce this number with the background of the climate change. At the same time, the demand of cooling will increase worldwide with the increasing temperature levels. Energy management via thin coatings on polymer films looks already back to half a century of technical development. It is 50 years ago that the first solar control films appeared on the market. The technical development is still ongoing. The layer stacks are continuously improving. New functions , like the adaptation of the optical properties to actual conditions were realized. Comprehensive building simulations allow the prediction of the energy demands after the introduction of new technologies. In this session we are looking forward to some contributions of this interesting field of research. | |

| Session 6 | Scalable technologies for flexible perovskite solar cells Chair: Dr. Michael Hoffmann |
|
| Perovskite solar cells on lab scale consistently achieve power conversion efficiencies in the range of 20-25% with increasing reports of simultaneously passing IEC accelerated lifetime test for 1000 h. Since they only require low temperature thin film technologies, they have the potential of disrupting the solar energy market. For the route to market, the successful implementation of scalable production technologies plays a crucial role. This session focuses on roll-to-roll technologies for perovskite solar cells on flexible substrates. It addresses the entire value chain including electrodes, buffer-, transport and absorber layers and encapsulation technology up to the module level. | |
