8th Korean-German Energy Day
Building Resilient and Low-Carbon Electricity Systems: Korean-German Perspectives on Capacity Mechanisms, Battery Storage and Battery Recycling
25th June 2026 | 9:30am - 17:00pm | Bundespresseamt Besucherzentrum (Reichstagsufer 14, 10117 Berlin) | On-site only
On behalf of the German Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWE) and the Korean Ministry of Climate, Environment and Energy (MCEE), we are pleased to invite you the 8th Korean-German Energy Day, that will be held as a physical conference on 25th June 2026 in Berlin, Germany.
The decarbonization of electricity sectors in Germany and Korea is creating new challenges with regard to flexibility, system integration of new technologies, and security of supply. To foster the creation of resilient and low-carbon electricity systems, both countries are exploring a range of options, including capacity mechanisms, strategic reserves, the integration of large-scale battery storage and battery cell recycling. The Korean-German Energy Day will therefore focus on the topic "Building Resilient and Low-Carbon Electricity Systems: Korean-German Perspectives on Capacity Mechanisms, Battery Storage and Battery Recycling".
In three sessions, the conference will offer a structured exchange across the following topics:
- Session I: Security of Supply in the Electricity Sector: Providing Flexibility via Capacity Mechanisms, Strategic Reserves and Other Options
- Session II: Integration of Large-Scale Battery Energy Storage Systems in the Electricity Grid
- Session III: Battery Cell Recycling
The Korean-German Energy Day provides a platform for energy experts from government, industry, research and civil society to exchange views and learn from each other’s experiences. The overall focus of the event is to discuss policy measures and showcase technologies which can be utilized to the benefit of Korea and Germany’s carbon neutrality goals.
The conference will be translated simultaneously between Korean / English.
