WBE 2025: International Battery and Energy Storage Expo in Guangzhou

WBE 2025 attracts a broad spectrum of participants across the battery value chain. Major exhibitors include CATL, BYD, Panasonic, LG Energy Solution, EVE Energy, Samsung SDI, and Envision AESC. Beyond OEMs, the show will feature component suppliers, such as manufacturers of cathode/anode materials, electrolytes, separators, and BMS components.

Automation providers specializing in laser welding, electrolyte filling, pouch sealing, and robotic pack assembly will display live demonstrations on-site. These production solutions will be particularly useful for visitors from battery gigafactories and contract manufacturing operations.

Academic institutions and national labs will present cutting-edge R&D in the form of posters, simulation tools, and prototype batteries. Attendees can interact with university teams behind some of the latest advancements in solid electrolytes, 3D-printed electrodes, and advanced lifecycle testing methods.

Financial institutions and venture capital groups will also be present, seeking to invest in promising startups or fund expansion of scale-up-stage manufacturing. WBE’s investor forum will host over 100 curated pitch sessions.

Country-specific pavilions will foster international cooperation, and buyer delegations from Southeast Asia, MENA, and Latin America will join for sourcing and procurement discussions. China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will also send representatives to align industrial development goals.

WBE 2025 will offer an unparalleled view of the battery and energy storage universe. Exhibits will include everything from lithium-ion cell production lines to utility-scale ESS container solutions. Visitors can explore a full lineup of residential storage systems, modular racks for commercial buildings, and grid-level battery stations co-located with wind and solar farms.

Live factory replicas will display how lithium-ion batteries are assembled, tested, and deployed at scale. Highlights include solid-state battery samples, sodium-ion packs, and high-voltage EV batteries with 800V fast-charging architecture.

Hydrogen exhibits will present complete fuel cell stacks, onboard tanks, hybrid propulsion modules, electrolyzers, and hydrogen refueling stations. The hydrogen zone will show prototypes of fuel cell vehicles and scalable energy supply chains for industrial use.

Battery manufacturing equipment on display will include coating and calendaring lines, laser welding systems, X-ray and end-of-line testers, formation and aging systems, and software for smart factory automation. Multiple companies will also launch AI-powered QC systems and energy recovery solutions.

The charging infrastructure section will showcase home and commercial chargers, smart load-balancing systems, solar-charging hybrids, and mobile charging platforms. Companies will demo payment integration, user apps, cloud diagnostics, and fleet charging management systems.

Visitors can interact with IoT-enabled dashboards for real-time monitoring of battery health, charging cycles, thermal conditions, and more. Recycling companies will showcase disassembly automation, lithium recovery processes, and second-life battery platforms for low-voltage grids and emergency backup.
