The meeting, which drew more than 80 participants, served as a forum for industry representatives, utility companies, academic and government researchers, and policymakers to discuss energy storage and potential major applications in the region.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis meeting exceeded our expectations,\u201d said conference chair Zhenxing Feng, assistant professor of chemical engineering in OSU\u2019s College of Engineering. \u201cWe are creating new possibilities for collaboration among the leaders in energy storage systems for sustainable energy technologies.\u201d<\/p>\n

The symposium was organized by Oregon State with assistance from the Joint Center for Energy Storage Research, a public\/private partnership established by the U.S. Department of Energy in 2012. Presenters included researchers from Argonne National Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Idaho National Laboratory, and the U.S. Army Research Laboratory. Industry representatives from 10 companies were in attendance, including Organo Corporation from Japan, China\u2019s Neware Technology, Nissan North America, and Lebanon, Oregon-based Entek Manufacturing.<\/p>\n
