The Solid-State Battery Summit 2026 is a two-day technical and commercial forum on August 11–12 in Chicago. Organized by Cambridge EnerTech, the event brings together developers, OEMs, materials scientists, manufacturing engineers, pack designers, suppliers, researchers and investors to examine advances in solid-state and semi-solid-state battery technology. Sessions cover materials chemistry, electrolyte/electrode interfaces, manufacturing and pack engineering, safety, and strategies to reduce production costs and improve energy density. The summit runs in a hybrid format with in-person presentations, virtual access and on-demand content, and offers tutorials, panel discussions, technical papers, and an exhibition area. Attendees will review market outlooks for Asia, Europe and North America, discuss scalability and testing methods, and consider pathways toward cell-scale cost targets and wider commercial deployment.
