STELLAR 2nd Consortium MEETING

The STELLAR project held its second consortium meeting online, bringing partners together to review progress achieved during the first year and align priorities for the next phase of work. The meeting provided an opportunity to assess developments across the project’s technical areas, including lithium-metal anode manufacturing, protective coatings, in-line quality control, laser cutting, recycling, digital monitoring, and market and cost assessment.

As STELLAR moves from initial definition and early testing towards deeper validation and integration, partners focused on the next steps needed to advance safe, scalable and sustainable production routes for reliable lithium-metal anodes. The meeting reinforced the consortium’s shared commitment to supporting future generations of high-performance batteries through coordinated research, industrialisation and sustainability efforts.
