AABC and Symposia provide a unique forum where the directions of automotive power system technology are revealed by some of its most influential players.

Over 850 delegates from 25 countries participated in the 9th International Advanced Automotive Battery & EC Capacitor Conference (AABC-09) and the 5th International Symposia on Large Lithium Ion Battery Technology and Application (LLIBTA-09) and Large EC Capacitor Technology and Application (ECCAP-09) , held at the Long Beach Convention Center, Long Beach, California, June 8-12, 2009. Dynamic discussion inside and outside the conference room focused on readiness of Li Ion batteries (which design?) to enter the automotive market, as well as market growth scenarios of the various advanced vehicle architectures.
