Joining

Why join CBI?

The Consortium for Battery Innovation is the only global pre-competitive research organization promoting innovation in lead batteries for energy storage, motive and automotive applications.

CBI offers its members the opportunity to be at the forefront of cutting-edge research projects focused on advancing lead battery performance in innovative applications with some of the world’s leading research institutions. Members also have the opportunity to participate in government-funded projects co-ordinated by CBI, and can specify support for specific areas such as energy storage demonstration projects.

All members of CBI can submit project proposals and receive early notice of technical advances in lead battery technology that are likely to translate into commercial applications.

Technical workshops and meetings are held throughout the year in North and South America, Europe and Asia, facilitating the sharing of technical information and networking with the global industry. Collaborative workshops are also organised in conjunction with end-users such as car manufacturers.
