Phuket Hosts ASEAN Battery Conference 2025 This August

For a Greener Tomorrow: Advancing Battery Safety and Innovation for ASEAN’s Next Generation 

The ASEAN Battery Technology Conference returns with its third edition. It will bring together experts in the energy storage and battery technology industries to address the key challenges and opportunities shaping the future of energy. The event will be held in Phuket, Thailand at SAii Laguna Phuket from 27 to 29 August 2025.

Organised by the Thailand Energy Storage Technology Association (TESTA) in collaboration with five other leading battery and EV organisations in ASEAN, this year’s conference sets the stage for ASEAN’s collective drive toward a greener, safer, and more innovative battery future while also nurturing relationships among industry players to build an ASEAN community for future cooperation.

Dr Pimpa Limthongkul, Co-Founder and President of TESTA, said: “ASEAN Battery Technology Conference 2025 marks a defining moment for ASEAN as we accelerate regional collaboration to drive innovation, safety, and sustainability in next-generation battery technologies. It reflects Thailand’s intention in building a resilient energy storage economy and ASEAN’s collective ambition to power clean mobility and robust energy systems. We are especially honoured to welcome global pioneers such as Professor Stanley Whittingham, Professor Yet-Ming Chiang, and Professor Shirley Meng whose presence signals the global significance of ABTC and reinforces our region’s role in shaping the future of energy.”

ASEAN Battery Safety Network Launch a Key Highlight of ASEAN Battery Technology Conference 

One of the key highlights of this year’s ASEAN Battery Technology Conference will be the launch of the ASEAN Battery Safety Network (ABSN) supported by the ASEAN Committee on Science, Technology, and Innovation (COSTI) and member states. The ABSN will serve as a regional platform for the exchange of Science and Technology (S&T) knowledge in ASEAN, support safe deployments for all member states through S&T understanding, and strengthen the region’s role in the global battery value chain through cohesive alignment and advancements in battery safety.

Dr Sing Yang Chiam, Technical Director, Singapore Battery Consortium, at ABSN, added: “We are grateful for the strong support from ASEAN leaders in establishing the ASEAN Battery Safety Network, a critical first step in our collective journey to address battery safety challenges across the region. ABSN was established to drive cross-border collaboration, knowledge exchange, and the advancement of battery safety science, laying the foundation for safer deployment and use of battery technologies while reinforcing ASEAN’s position in the global battery value chain. We are now assessing each member state’s current landscape, priorities, and challenges as we chart a unified work plan and strategic roadmap for the years ahead.”
