The Future of Energy Summit is conducted by Bloomberg on April 4-5 in the city of New York. It is an initiative by Bloomberg to provide data services to energy-based companies. Bloomberg is a private financial software company founded in 1981 by Michael Bloomberg. It provides services ranging from analytics, data services, news to financial organizations. After serving many businesses with their financial software tools and data services, Bloomberg has acquired a data service company called “New Energy Finance” which focuses on providing data services to energy-based companies.
With climate change such a looming factor, it is important to focus on finding more energy solutions. As Secretary of State John Kerry so pointedly stated at Bloomberg’s Future of Energy Summit:
“No matter which country you’re in, the cost of clean energy now is cheaper than the cost of climate change later… Those betting on renewable energy will win big.“
Leclanche a 100 plus year experienced battery production company
The reasoning behind acquiring New Energy Finance is to provide financial solutions and data solutions by research and to support the companies and organization that emphasize low-carbon energy solutions. Since energy storage and low-carbon energy solutions are one wing of Bloomberg, the Future of Energy Summit was conceived, and it is conducted to welcome fresh and innovative ideas and to share ideas on energy storage and its future. The main participant this year is Leclanche. This is a great opportunity for Leclanche as they are taking initiatives to step in to North America, says Anil Srivastava, the CEO of Leclanche.
The reason that Bloomberg invited Leclanche as a summit partner of the event is because Leclanche is one of the leading battery manufacturers with 100-plus years experience. Leclanche provides energy storage solutions through batteries and cells to home, industry, and grid applications. The energy storage experts founded the company following the tradition of Geroges Leclanche who is the inventor of the dry cell battery. With industry leading Lithium-ion solutions, Leclanche has the rich profile of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BEES). It is the one of the best battery manufacturers in Europe and enhances various applications of battery usage using renewable batteries, diesel reduction, and electricity connected battery storage services. Leclanche also serves heavy duty hybrid energy supply for trains, buses, and other vehicles.
The Future of Energy Summit is a global summit
The Future of Energy Summit is an invitation-only global summit in New York with regional summits in London and Shanghai. The invited companies discuss ideas on energy storage, the need for energy storage, and the condition and policies of the energy storage market. Srivatsava, says that they are pleased to be a part of this event as a summit partner and considers this as one of the best ways to introduce their energy storage solutions in the North American market.
The sessions in the event
There will be two sessions in the summit for Leclanche. The first one is a panel discussion and the next one is a Global Industry CEO session. The first session in the event on April 5 is a panel discussion on the energy storage market, and it is hosted by Leclanche with a themed breakfast session. Srivatsava, along with the panel participants, will discuss the current changes in the energy storage technologies. The Global Industry CEO session will review how major equipment and energy service providers will assess the needs of their key partners and how those needs change and how they can support them with the latest technology and increase in production of energy storage devices. Leclanche produces more than one million lithium-ion batteries in a year to meet the battery needs of various companies and supplies primary and secondary batteries to other battery producers.
