Conference history
OREBA 2.0: olivine research in Changchun, 2015
A historical reference to OREBA 2.0 in Changchun, using the 2015 announcement to distinguish scientific sessions, programme themes and organizing roles.
Scientific sessions announced for 3–4 November 2015 · Changchun, China
OREBA 2.0 was announced in Changchun, China, under the theme of reassessing lithium iron phosphate. A 29 September 2015 announcement published by the China Industrial Association of Power Sources preserves the organizing information and a detailed programme. The record identifies Northeast Normal University as the host organization. [1]
This independent reference describes that announcement. It does not offer registration, represent the organizers or certify that every scheduled activity took place exactly as announced.
Dates and venue
The announcement’s opening gives a 3–5 November event window. Its detailed date section specifies scientific sessions on 3–4 November 2015, registration on 2 November and an industrial visit on the morning of 5 November. The listed venue was the Sheraton Changchun Jingyuetan hotel. [1]
Those details support the narrower scientific-session dates used on this page. The source is a pre-event notice rather than an attendance report. Its anticipated participant count is therefore not treated as measured attendance.
Organization and programme
The notice distinguishes the university host, a conference-service provider and supporting organizations, with a guiding role for Hydro-Québec’s research centre. Its speaker schedule includes Karim Zaghib, Michel Armand, Christian Julien and Margret Wohlfahrt-Mehrens. [1]
Programme themes covered olivine synthesis, compatible electrolytes, lithium-metal polymer batteries, characterization and applications in vehicles and stationary storage. These subjects connected the phosphate material to the surrounding cell and its intended operating duty. [1]
The earlier OREBA 1.0 meeting had already brought together olivine materials, coatings, transport and applications. Hydro-Québec’s contemporary announcement documents that first meeting’s identity and host. The two records provide a historical sequence without requiring a claim that this publication continues the organizing institution. [2]
Research connections
The LFP reference explains how a positive-electrode material differs from a finished graphite/LFP cell. The olivine-cathode reference organizes structural and transport questions, while the energy-storage page addresses the system boundaries relevant to application claims.
The announcement also discussed solid-state and polymer-electrolyte development. A conference notice can establish that these were programme subjects, but it cannot replace the data required to evaluate a specific energy-density figure. Here, the technical explanation relies on the olivine and solid-state-interface literature instead of converting promotional statements into general performance facts. [3] [4]
Limits of the surviving record
The primary announcement is in Chinese; the organization, dates and subject descriptions on this page are English paraphrases. A complete independently verified set of proceedings, final attendance figures and outcomes of every scheduled activity has not been established from this record.
The historical source includes registration prices and personal contact information. Those details served the 2015 event and are not republished as active editorial contact channels. Current conference information belongs to the official OREBA III website; the 2025 reference describes its documented programme.
