The Battery Show Europe 2026

The Battery Show Europe 2026 brings together the global battery community to explore the latest innovations shaping electrification, energy storage, and sustainable mobility. With a strong focus on advanced battery chemistries, system integration, fast charging, and lifecycle sustainability, the show highlights how battery technology is enabling safer, more efficient, and more resilient energy solutions.
Toshiba Electronics Europe will showcase SCiB™ Lithium Titanium Oxide (LTO) batteries, designed for exceptional safety, ultra‑fast charging, long cycle life, and reliable operation even in extreme environments. Their ability to support rapid charging and frequent cycling while maintaining stable operation makes LTO technology ideal for demanding applications in transportation, industrial equipment, and energy infrastructure. With LTO, Toshiba highlights a battery solution that combines technical robustness with a long‑term sustainability perspective.

Increasing risk of aged cells – a comparison of cell chemistries
Date:2026.6.9 3:30 pm - 4:00 pm CET, Room C1.2.1 - Track B
Speaker:Volker Schumann, Vice President Battery Division at Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH

Overview:Overview of the safety aspects of lithium-ion cells with the typical sequence of a thermal runaway. Presentation of research results how the risk of a thermal runaway is increasing over lifetime due to degradation for different cell chemistries like NMC, LFP and LTO. Safety standards and test often do not always consider this aspect of growing risk.

- growing risk of internal short caused by plating and swelling
- growing risk to enter thermal runaway for aged cells with graphite anode
- inherent safety mechanism of LTO to avoid such risks
- critical discussion of safety standards neglecting such aspects
