Key Achievements & Milestones

Over the past two decades, we, as CleanTech Leaders, have driven remarkable progress in our industry. The solar sector has experienced an extraordinary 2 000-fold growth, making renewable energy more cost-competitive than ever. Today, energy storage is the key to accelerating the global transformation toward a CleanTech paradigm.

Now, through the CBC StorageVersity Hub, we are paving the way for a sustainable energy future by championing diverse storage solutions—spanning batteries, gravity, hydrogen, thermal, and kinetic technologies—and their critical applications across industries, including transportation.

 

Key Milestones and Achievements:

1. Pioneering Visionary Collaboration: Established the first initiative connecting Energy Storage Pioneers with Hydrogen and Water Leaders through H2H (human-to-human) relationships. Led by Chair Dr. Rashi Gupta (Batterywali) and Co-Chairs representing diverse expertise.

 

2. Innovative Global Hub Structure: Designed a scalable and replicable Hub Model for CBC StorageVersity Hub, setting a blueprint for other CBC Business & Technology Hubs.

 

3. Strategic Roadmap Initiative: Launched "StorageVersity – Diverse Routes, United Vision", a multi-year collaborative effort shaping a joint roadmap for CleanTech, Hydrogen, and Water leaders.

4. Landmark MoU for CleanTech Hydrogen Residences: Signed an MoU for CH2R Agadir I, the World's First CleanTech Hydrogen Residences in the Hospitality Industry, at Danialand in Agadir.

This groundbreaking project will integrate battery and hydrogen storage solutions.

5. StorageVersity Initial Events:

  • Kick-off meeting of CBC StorageVersity Hub’s Leadership at The Smarter E Europe, followed by its official announcement at the CBC 10th Anniversary Black-Tie Gala #TogetherWeAreStronger in Munich's historic Künstler House.
