Is there a road map for developing a successful battery industry and what lessons can we learn from the last 20 years that policy makers can learn from? What are the lessons for other local economies looking to nurture their domestic battery supply chains?
In this episode I'm delighted to be joined by Christopher Chico, Editor of The Battery Chronicle to discuss the key issues in developing a competitive battery sector.

The Battery Technology Podcast is sponsored by Battery Tech Europe | FIRA de Barcelona | September 2026
The battery technology sector in Southern Europe is growing rapidly, both in energy storage technology and EV mobility.
Spain is the 2nd largest automotive manufacturing economy in Europe and has recently announced a huge investment to accelerate the development of the supply chain in Battery Energy Storage Systems. It’s a very exciting time for growth in the battery related supply chain in the Southern European region.
With few major battery technology events in the region, the event will provide a large and additive audience to the current events for the European EV and BESS supply chain. It will be a major addition to the roster of battery industry events.
